honestly, i dont mean to outright trash your edits. this is a very honest genuine question: do you know how blue lighting works? i have the same skintone as maggie (i'm also a dark latina) and when i'm in blue lighting i look super pale and weird, dark people don't look dark in blue lighting, we look kinda white or gray; in my personal opinion maggie looks super unnatural in your edits, it's like the light doesn't even affect her!
well yeah i know how blue lighting worksi also know how it affects dark skin bc i see that on myself every day!! we dont look white or gray as youve described in blue light, though!when as lighting as strong as the one in the edits im assuming(?) youre talking about it absolutely would not suddenly make your base skintone several shades lighter. Light bounces off of dark skin more intensely than it does on paler skin. Although, i didnt incorporate this very well into my edits and i apologize for any confusion i may have caused you!For reference, please look at the photo that i took from this post:
