“I like a certain amount of retouching, like anybody” was Liz Hurley’s quote last week as she launched her latest Mango swimwear range.

Confessing that she now relies on “nice photographers” and retouching for swimwear shoots, she said she didn’t mind being made to look a “bit thinner and a bit younger” through the use of digital enhancement.

Like anybody, Photolate’s photo retouching can now also give you this look.

Been interviewed by The Sunday Times, Liz said, “We all like to get rid of spots and shadows under our eyes. I’ve always been quite particular – I don’t like my face to be retouched.

Often, people will want to correct one’s face, and with me, they always want to change my nose and I’m like, ‘No, no, no, I can’t look like that. I don’t mind if you want to make me a bit thinner and a bit younger, but you can’t give me a different jaw or eyebrows.

But the vanity retouching – well, who wouldn’t?”

Yes Liz, we think that’s what Photolate’s natural retouch package is all about.

Interestingly, as her roadshow moved onto Munich, we don’t see her posing in a bikini with the rest of the girls.

Could it be that she wasn’t prepared to pose in a two-piece without any digital help?
