Beth,

Here are a few of observations:

I think you could bring her right nostril out more to our left. And the shape of this nostril could be more rounded up and not come back so quickly to the tip of the nose, giving a more pointed nose effect.

Our right corner of her mouth should be extended out a bit.

Her teeth seem a bit brighter than the photo and are showing an edge which is not flattering.

The bridge of her nose, because of the shading appears to be bowing out to our right.

The dark shading between her lips on our right side, as it peaks up, is giving her a bit more of a snarl than the photo would indicate.

I think if I would suggest this project to my teenage daughter some morning before school I would get a couple of fried eggs up beside my head.
