Hello! you may try other filters to soften the skin: noise>median, stylize>diffuse>anisotropic

see this tutorial: http://www.photoshopgurus.info/intermediate/photo_makeover/photo_makeover.shtml

i have already tried it but it isn't the effect i whant |
look at this photo. the face skin is smooth.
and the light wich is coming from is it a lighting effect [stuned]

You mean when you take the picture? yes, you need to use a diffuse light, like a flood rather than a spot...

If you mean at post processing, in the old times, picture were airbrushed... see those articles: http://www.dancingicon.com/tipsandtricks/photoshop.shtml

Umm.... You took that picture? Does it really need work? Looks fine from where I sit. Latvia must be a beautiful place. Nice work Raimis
