The lighting is good maybe just a tad bright on the nose but that's just a nitpick. This works well centered. The color on the lips look fake as if painted on or perhaps that was the result of desaturation/masking? If so you should definitely use a softer brush. |

This is a very pretty image, but I'm having trouble with the lips. It's not that they are alone with color (besides the eyes) but the color seems to be painted on, and does not cover the natural curve of her bottom lip. It is also probably too bright, even with the contrast you were apparently going for. I think the idea might work, but this execution didn't get there for me. |

Bad job painting the lips. The edge is too sharp. Same with her left eye. |

This would have got a much higher score from me if it was straight b&w, or f it was in colour. To me it looks as though you used selective desat just because you can rather than because you have made an artistic choice. The cut out of the lips, in particular, is rather clumsy, and I find it difficult to see the rest of the portrait! |

the portrait can be good but the postwork is terrible. with advanced editing you can clean the moles. the eyes are good. the lips..... here there is the true problem for this image. 5 |

The lips and the eyes are not real any more! If you want to make such an edit pay attention to believability. |

If the lips were pale I would have liked this more. |

i don't usually comment on photos but seeing that i gave this a low mark i feel i should . The eyes colour looks false and against the washed out face, and the lip colour is far too bright and poorly applied, giving the face a ghostly look. |

The photoshop job on the lips is little weak. It looks to fake. |

4 processing doesn´t help, on the contrary, it hurts the image. Instead of saying: look at this beautiful young lady, this photo says: look how skilled I am with the photoshop. To make the things worse, I don´t see a skill in postprocessing. |

Unfortunately the enhancements, especially the lips, spoil this otherwise good, portrait. |

The post processing on this pretty girl is a little overdone. The eyers arn't too bad, but her lips look very strange - as if they belong to someone else |

Interestingly artsy. Though personally I like selective coloring best when done subtly. |

the processing on the lips is a big rough. nice idea but cleaning up those PS skills will come in handy! |

Great image.. overall it's good - The only thing bringing it down is the sharp mask around the mouth - It would better with a soft touch - 5 |

colors look totally painted on thru PS. Looks extremely fake and a little cheesy. |

I'm by no means a photo editing wiz, so this is just my opinion. I like the eyes, but I think the lips looks "drawn in" and not "natural". |

It looks like the pink was painted onto the photo rather than being a "revealed color" from the original. While that's cool... I just think the sharp edges on the lips is distracting because the edges of the color don't seem to match the shape of the lips. |
