Hi all! Please find attached my first attempt at glamour retouching, a pic I found while scrounging through tutorials on the net. It was done on my laptop only using the touch pad as I couldn't find my mouse at the time! lol I don't know what the quality will be like when viewing, i had to cut it down so I could post it. Too lazy and inpatient!

I like it!

not bad for a first attempt, do more healing before you 'degrunge' those blemishes are still showing thru. I'm undecided on the distortion of the eyes I can see why you've done it but I think the iris and pupil are slightly the wrong angle. The use of purple compliments the hair well and overall not too shabby, just trying to offer constructive criticism.
Hope it helps

Two things that bother me. Her forehead is too blown out when taken as a whole with the overall saturation. Looks like an "oopsy" to me.

Also, there is something that looks like a spot that is very distracting on her left eye. See detail below.

Love the makeup job. Purple is great for the eye shadow.

I like it and wish I could do as good. Tom :)

I think there is beauty going in the opposite direction ...
