The Tiffen Black Pro-Mist 1/8 Filter helps to reduce the value of the highlights while slightly lowering the overall contrast. This filter is especially useful for smoothing out and softening facial wrinkles and other blemishes. While designed for use with movies, this filter can also be used for fashion and beauty applications. Unlike a traditional diffusion or soft focus filter, Pro-Mist filters provide little loss of detail across the image.

The Black ProMist is just the regular (White) ProMist, but with black specks added to restore some of the loss of contrast that the halation causes due to the mist particles. So the effect is similar to regular ProMist but a bit more subtle, with less milkiness. I also feel that the black specs also soften hot highlights a tiny bit, not a bad thing in digital.
