I second this idea; Creative Live is an excellent source for training on many products. Over the years I have purchased many training videos for LR (Jared Platt my fav for LR) and PS.
And you own them and I go back many tines for refresher and further learning.
There are many training sources out there, Creative Live is one of the good ones.
I also use subscribe to PHLEARN, another excellent PS source.
No these aren't Plug-Ins but tools to consider that can take us beyond the single plugins.
But then too; plugins can be a one or two click process and we are all done.

The only plug in I really use is Portrait Pro. In most cases I find it faster to work with than doing the same manually but I do tone it down quite a bit. I use it for what its name implies. Best of luck.

Thanks for the list of really choice software, especially Spektral Art -- fun stuff for only $20

Just in time for the holidays - What are some of your favorite plug-ins for Photoshop and Lightroom? I'm interested in what you really like, especially if they're not widely known. If you can, leave a brief description and a link.
I like the Nik and Topaz black & white conversion plug-ins. They offer lots of choice and I always get good results.

I use Portraiture most of all for my portraits. I also like PortraitPro, but I wish it could be saved on a layer so you could go back later and turn down the opacity.

This is from the Portrait Pro 17 User Guide:
Using PortraitPro from Photoshop
When the plug-in has been installed, PortraitPro will appear as a filter in Photoshop. In the Photoshop Filter
menu, you will find a sub-menu called Anthropics, and in that you will find PortraitPro.
The PortraitPro filter works like other Photoshop filters in that it is applied to the current selection (or the whole area if there is no selection) on the current layer. When you select the filter, the image being filtered will automatically be opened in PortraitPro.

Topaz Studio for me....I love it! Not Studio 2 though. It tries to control too much.

I really like the Topaz products, especially DeNoise AI and Sharpen AI. I think they're on sale right now.
I really like Topaz also, especially AI Clear which I get to via Topaz Studio. It reduces noise and sharpens
