An electronic camera includes an image pickup device that takes a subject image, a face detecting section, an inferential section, and an image processing section. The face detecting section not only detects a face area in a shooting image plane based on the output of the image pickup device but also extracts a feature amount of the face of the subject from the face area. The inferential section performs inferential processing relating to either of the age and gender of the subject based on the feature amount. The image processing section makes at least one of an exposure correction, a soft focus correction, a skin smoothing correction to adjust color saturation of the color of the skin, and a correction to make a person look slim, on a recording-purpose image taken by the image pickup device based on the inference result of the inferential section.

Original image data has original luminance data and color difference data. The original luminance data is separated into first luminance data and second luminance data. The second luminance data undergoes low-pass filter process so as to produce the third luminance data. The first luminance data and the third luminance data are synthesized. Due to this, the soft focus picture image, which consists of the synthesized luminance data and the difference luminance data, is generated.

The invention relates to preparation of wrinkle removing cosmetic, and aims to provide users with a formulation of a cosmetic for removing skin wrinkles on the face and a preparation method. The cosmetic uses PVA wrapped optical active grains [disulfonic acid triazanaphthlene polydodecyl amide (and) polyethylene] to emit visible light so as to increase brightness at hollowness of wrinkles; therefore, the gloss of the wrinkle part is close to the surrounding skin, the vision effect that the wrinkles 'disappear' is produced, and the grains have the function as lightening 'faint bulbs' at the wrinkles and achieve the effect of 'soft focus' by scattering the surrounding visible light so that the wrinkles are not easy to be discovered.
