It does target skin tone but just to clarify, it will soften (blur) any part of the picture that is similar in color, hue, brightness & saturation to whatever skin tone that it is set to target. For example, if there are curtains in the background with the same target color as the skin tone that you're correcting, it will also get (blurred).
When I use the plugin, I customize the target skin tone for each girl and also for each set of pictures - since skin tones can vary from girl to girl as well as from set to set (depending on the lighting). I select the skin tone and then adjust the sliders to mask out everything except the skin tone... but usually there are other parts of the picture with similar tones so rarely is the skin the only thing that gets blurred.
