This is one of my faves so far! Her skin tone is just incredibly beautiful!  Her eyes look photoreal and I could stare at the detail in her lips all day. (Not to mention, the butterfly is really pretty as well!)

They complement the skin tone so beautifully, don't they? I've always been a fan of the deep skin tones like this... so pretty.

Glad you enjoyed it!
