To add more contrast, we're really going to crank up the Contrast slider (here, I dragged
it over to +73), but to brighten and enhance the texture of the irises a bit at the same time,
increase the Exposure to +85 and the Clarity to +18, then paint directly over the irises, and
see how much better they look! Lastly, let's sharpen the eyes, eyelashes, and eyebrows.
Click the New button once again, reset all the sliders to 0 (just click the + [plus sign] but-
ton to the right of Sharpness and it resets them all and moves Sharpness up to +25). Now,
paint over her pupils and irises (but not out all the way to the edge of the iris), then paint
over her eyelashes and eyebrows to help make them look sharper and crisper, completing
the retouch (a before/after is shown below).
