The blue channel had most of the detail so I layered that on top of the original in Luminosity mode. Liquified her nose and mouth slightly. Curves brought out color in the green and blue channels and selective color balanced the reds and yellows. Sharpening emphasized the flaws in the blue channel but the healing brush helped that. Added some eye shadow with gradient maps; likewise lipstick and a final diffuse glow layer at 40%.

I got messed up along the way, and forgot to save a snapshot along the way, so quite impossible to name all steps, but here is what I came up with.

Waaay past bedtime here, but still time for a comment.
The pic was taken very (too) close up and is suffering from "fish-eye" type lens distortion. First thing would be to correct this.

(Yawn) Goodnight all.

Fun pic, has pretty much everything to fix.. distortion, colours, background, blow-out, flash shadows.

I fixed, the barrel distortion, the lighting, the nose, the lips, the eyes, the cheek line, the jaw line, the hair, skin blemishes, the background, the skin color to suggest outdoors, the tee-shirt and anything else I could think of
