FAQs

More info in help centre

What is an AI skin texture enhancer?

An AI skin texture enhancer adds believable micro-detail (pores, fine lines, subtle unevenness) to overly smoothed skin, without changing the subject's face, body, or lighting.

Can I add skin texture to an AI image for free?

You can try adding skin texture with AI for free: you have 50 credits to explore Claid's features, including AI Edit.

Does it work on full-body shots and on-model photos?

Yes. Claid is designed for ecommerce visuals, so skin texture enhancer AI workflows can target hands, arms, legs, and full-body/on-model images.

Is this the same as upscaling?

Not exactly. AI upscaling skin texture can help if the image is low-res, but texture enhancement is about restoring realistic surface detail even when resolution is already decent. Many users combine both: upscale first if needed, then enhance texture.

What prompts should I use to fix waxy skin?

Start simple: "Fix AI-smoothed skin. Add subtle pores and realistic texture. Keep lighting and facial features unchanged." That's usually enough for fixing AI skin texture. Give more specific instructions if you're looking for particular skin features or imperfections.
