Cleaning the skin while leaving the water beads was fun!

This one was interesting for the skin treatment too. The silver makeup was hard to apply consistently and evenly so I'm the one that was left to clean it up:

Very nice work.
Eyes maybe could be a little sharper. Compression ? ^^

Which methods did you use ? FS ? D&B? Both combined ?

I haven't decided about eyes yet smile Still looking into how somehow to differentiate them from the rest but in a subtle way. No FS. Old good DnB.
P.S. Could be compression. here is a better sample: http://www.nebulaoperator.com/portfolio

This is probably one of my favourite, far from perfect tho...
I didn't have this idea in mind at the time, took 2 shots with one focused on the foreground, then the other on the mirror. Went home and start editing both and couldn't help but to flick between the 2 of them deciding which one I prefer... and thought "why not combined?!"... so here we are.

Kinda takes you by surprise when you realize that her eyes are open in the foreground but closed in the mirror image ... beautiful image & edit!

first post! Ready to get burned.. LOL
my best progress so far, after reading and applying many of the various tips here on MM and other forums... but it can still be improved, i guess.. help?

shot raw, with my starter kit and pop-up flash with DIY "diffuser"... still over exposed.. composited 3 different exposures from lightroom... cloning, healing, some quick D&Bing, with a mouse, and not nearly spending enough time to effectively learn anything, ended up with this..
