She's cute. I would nevertheless use a PP function to lighten up the bottom
of the image where her chest is. Just too dark. I am not by any means easily
distracted by that area needs some retouching.

She is a lovely gal with a beautiful smile. I think the photo is nice but with the lighting, tone, and shooting angle and your camera height to her head you are creating way to much shadow and puffiness under her eyes and shadow around her cheeks and mouth. Suggestion would be to PP those out a bit and you will have a much better result.

It's a nice image, but I think it's over-processed.
It doesn't look real to me.
Also, maybe the focal length is a little bit too short for a portrait.

I like some aspects of the PP, but not the way it was also applied to her eyes and teeth. I suggest re-doing your PP to avoid applying it to her eyes and teeth. You can use dodging and perhaps a little clone stamp work on the image as it is to reduce some of the PP selectively. Better concealing eye make up and flatter lighting would hide the dark circles and reduce the prominence of the natural tissue around her lower lids. (Some women have plastic surgery to reduce the tissue, by surgery won't eliminate the dark circles due to a dense network of veins near the surface.) The non-surgical way to remove the excess tissue is with re-touching the photo. Some want such an idealized portrait. Others wouldn't want such a radical change.

Here's a version with dodging and clone stamp changes. Also illustrates what she'd look like with lower lid Blepharoplasty and concealing make up. (Obviously you wouldn't want to go that far unless it's what she prefers.)
