Jols, first questions are, how do you get 'from this' to 'this', can you try and write it down what you do and secondly which software do you use?

open image in ps7.
LAYER-------DUPLICATE LAYER--------CLICK OK.
LAYER-------LAYER STYLE----BLENDING OPTIONS----CHANGE FROM 'NORMAL' TO 'SCREEN'--------CLICK OK
YOU NOW SHOULD HAVE A MUCH WHITER IMAGE
LAYER-----DUPLICATE LAYER-----CLICK OK---------EVEN WHITER
LAYER-----BLENDING OPTIONS----CHANGE FROM SCREEN TO OVERLAY
IMAGE NOW LOOKS WEIRD
CHANGE OPACITY UNTIL HAPPY. CLICK OK.
LAYER----------NEW ADJUSTMENT LAYER------LEVELS
IN HISTOGRAM DRAG WHITE ARROW [WHICH IS ON THE RIGHT] LEFT A LITTLE
ALSO ADJUST MIDDLE ARRO UNTIL HAPPY-----------CLICK ON LAYER AND FLATTEN.
THIS IS HOW I DO IT BUT I CANT GET THE SKIN TONES RIGHT
HOPE YOU CAN FOLLOW IT OK

Jols, thanks for taking the time and putting things down in writing. What you have there seems fine but there is something that is niggling in the back of my mind. Can you leave it with me for a while? I do not have PS7 but I will try and see what I can do.
I have copied your 376x500 pixel image, might be big enough to work with.
