I liked the color one WAY better. With the color one you can see that she's using blue lipstick and she's about to become, very wild, while in black and white it just looks like another woman putting on more lipstick.
I still like the b&w better -- helps me focus on the subject and not get distracted by everything that's going on. We can only guess what color that lipstick she's putting on is...
B&W for me too. My understanding of the transition was that she was putting on makeup - not blue lipstick. Colour of the mirror frame and the background kinda clashed as well.
between the blue tinted and b&w I thought the lipstick didn't show as well in the blue photo ... the stick itself isn't as distinct against her face, and the bits on her lips look like it may have been the lighting that caused the darkness
personally I prefer the B&W /blue toned, rather than the natural shot.
Also wonder if it might have been better to have had the applied lipstick on the other, lighter side - maybe shown up more clearly
It's a good entry though - I was going to do something very similar, I just couldn't talk my model into spending the time to do half her makeup and half her hair - think she thought I'd make her look like two-face from batman...
just my 2c

after the fact, I thought i should have just done a macro of the lips with the lipstick half applied being applied. : )
