Nice photo. Let me congratulate you for above 5 score for your second submission and also for trying out something different (in terms of looks) for submission. I feel lighting is little harsh and need to be worked upon. I wish you goodluck for future submissions.
I like your idea and the make-up a lot, but I guess you should try different lighting next time. The flash makes your face overexposed and that's a pity.
I think this concept is great, though I would be interested to see different framing and lighting. The negative space behind the head makes the shot feel very off balance to me, especially with the main facial features leaning heavily on the left border. The lighting seems a little harsh to me. I think that a softer lighting setup would maintain fine detail in the blown out skin areas and reduce the contrast nicely. I do like the makeup and the catchlights in both eyes.
Sorry but the lighting is not so good in this image, my guess is you used an on camera flash? Just too harsh, it´s blownig out all detail in your face. Next time try using a bigger lightsource, like a big window during daylight or something like that if you don´t have access to studio lighting.
