This is just a matter of taste, but for my taste, this is overprocessed. Removing blemishes is a tricky business. If one goes too far, the skin looks like plastic, not human skin. That's what this looks like to me. She doesn't look like a real person. However, some people like this style of portrait.

I'm sorry to say I agree with Dan, it's a nice portrait, but over processed for my taste.

+1 To what Dan and David have written. Retouching faces for beauty or fashion images is one of the hardest and most pain-staking areas of photography; while there is a bit of cloning and healing for major blemishes, most of the work is in-close dodging and burning to smooth out skin issues. Smooth plastic-look skin never looks good.

The other issue I have with this image is that large mass of material in the bottom left corner - it draws a lot of viewer attention without really adding anything to the image.

Very nice shots. Continue to celebrate the photography

I generally don't prefer portraits shot from lower angles up into the subject's nostrils.

Agreed - shooting up has its downsides, but is often used to make the model look taller or show them with longer legs. There is no particular good reason to shoot up with this pose. In face shooting at eye level or shooting down would downplay that puffy part of the outfit.
