Short answer is dont, - it looks perfectly normal.

if you want to remove a few of the hairs, since the background is black. them zoom in, select a soft black brush, and while holding down the shift key, click along the side of her face in small increments to follow the contours of the face.

I would however be a lot more concerned with the very strong Magenta cast on her skin. Ive loaded a mod so you can compare.

Olympus can do this somethimes, so shooting in raw and calibrating white balance is the way to go.

theres a "rule of thumb" for Caucasian skin colour, and if you drop a colour sample point on her hand or shoulder, where theres no make up, using CMYK, Cyan should be about 1/3 to 1/3 the value of magenta, and yellow should be slightly ( 2 or 3 %) above magenta. In this shot, cyan is zero, magenta is 54%, and yellow is 20%. This is corrected in the mod.


Hope this is helpful,



regards
