Overall it looks solid.
My thoughts - You asked!
- The eyes seem less in focus than the mouth. If you can, sharpen the eyes more and decrease sharpness on the lips, unless you want attention specifically drawn to her mouth expression and not the eyes. If you prefer the latter, I would consider it a shame because her eyes are fantastic!
- I would like to see more head room on the left of the image or a looser crop since her gaze is so strongly focused off screen. The way it is cropped now borders on a feeling of discomfort and a feeling of being trapped.
- Might want to extend the skin area to her neck and give it equal treatment as her face. Watch any HD newscast with women and you will often see that the makeup artist (or plastic surgeon!) didn't bother with the neck and it shows. Not that the subject here has a gobbler, she is actually quite stunning, but it's obvious her face was smoothed, just keep up the look with her neck to complete the look.
- Color looks good, exposure looks good, contrast is nice, good lighting
- Might back off a LITTLE bit on the skin softening. It looks good as is, but I prefer a slightly lighter hand with smoothing.
Just my $.02. Overall, nice work.
