Do you have trouble getting rid of those pesky circles or bags under the eyes of your subjects? Well, I wrote a guest post for Rita at Coffeeshop, showing two different techniques to help lessen those under-eye circles. I also created a video tutorial as a companion to the written tutorial and am sharing the video here for my Photography Haven friends.
The first technique in the tutorials uses the handy clone stamp tool. The second technique uses a soft brush to paint skin color over the under-eye circles.
The video is done using PSE but the steps can be used in CS5 or other PS versions, however, PS users also have the handy patch tool to attack those nasty circles too.
To see the written tutorial, keep on eye out at Coffeeshop (it will likely post today or tomorrow). To view the video, click HERE.

After using the above techniques and giving it a good clean edit:
