How did he create this effect (C. Hollywood)

[Cowzo]

I found this image in Calvin Hollywood his portfolio. A completely different editing style then used to (imo).
Has anyone some idea what made this image so 'soft', 'doll' -like. I spot some lowered saturation, color mixing, some Gaussian blur .. but I've a lot of problems replicating it.

Curves. All about the curves. Spilt tone Blue white point down, blue black point up.

Blur on the hair to the lower left.

Obviously DNB.

. . . Obviously DNB.

I suppose I'll have to look for a glossary, but not familiar with "DNB" ??
