I have recently started practicing for high-end retouching, and I'm trying to get good at this... Not sure where I'm at yet!

I like the last photo. The top photo and middle photo I feel need some work some areas are more saturated than others.

I agree with the above comment. For me especially, the skin texture is way over cooked on the first one. keep practicing though. good luck!

The first photo is my favorite. The shadow however in the right eye (left on the picture) looks a little too harsh. The second photo the shadow in the inside of the eye looks a little too harsh also. The third photo I almost like having the shoulder blade in, but I could be wrong.

All in all amazing retouching work. I like how you maintain the texture of the skin and editing out only the distracting elements.

Thank you all for the comments, it's very much appreciated smile I'm trying to go really deep into retouching, and I'm loving it! It's hard to find enough time to do it though, but soon I will be doing much more!
