Model was wearing fake eyelashes, which helped them really pop.
It is a little overexposed around the edges, I know. I don't think it ruins the image though, since the eye itself is not over or underexposed, in my opinion.

Like: Nice shot, colors are good. Sharpness is great.....on the lower eyelashes.
Dislike: big eye glare, blown out whites below the eye. Wish DOF included a little more eyelashes on top.

Nice color, but I think it's cropped a little to close. I can'd tell if the eye is looking at the camera or looking up and I find that distracting. Would be more obvious if not so close.
I wish there were less red around the bottom of the eye and that we could see the upper part of the iris, that it weren't in shadow since a good portion of the part we can see is taken up with the reflection. Good sharpness.
