It's a little out of focus, a little overexposed, and there are some highlights—you could powder the shiny areas to avoid messing with them later in Photoshop. The colors are nice and warm. The lack of harsh shadows is also a plus.

Ja by dobawila nemnogo kontrasta i rezkosti. Postanowka kadra udacnaja, no glaza ne rezkije i ot etogo teriajetsia cto-to. No dlia nacala neploho. :-)

Focus on the eyes, or the closest eye while half-turning.
That's a good start. Study the theory, watch and analyze the work of the masters.

Kraja, the focus in the photo is there, it’s just not precise.

Malakhov, thanks for the response, it's out of focus because I did it all alone, put the tree on the stool, focused it, and ran to its place)) )) I only removed one hair in Photoshop and cropped the eyes a little)

Kraja, unfortunately, I took the photo in JPEG, and there is little that can be changed. I sharpened the eyes in Photoshop as much as possible. In general, I was preparing the photo for a resume))

In Photoshop, I removed only one hair and added sharpness to the eyes. The photo was taken by myself.

Malakhov, it seems to me that the gloss doesn’t stick out too much, and gives a natural look, it’s not greasy, maybe I’m wrong

Tatiana Gordomysova, well done, what can I say!
Learn and master RAW.

I like this photo because there is practically no Photoshop and everything is in natural conditions.

Tatyana Gordomysova, the lack of processing is due to a lack of understanding of the conventions of digital photography, and not a reason for pride.

Mono, RAW, this is a mystery to me now, I don’t even know where to start, my head is full of ideas, pictures in RAW as well, but it’s all difficult to do on my own, but I’ll succeed, I like everything)) thank you)

I just really want to take photos and use Photoshop as little as possible.

Mono, I absolutely agree with you, that's why I'm stipulating the point that I'm a beginner, and the point that I really want to learn, and I'm learning to take pictures and master the technique so as not to resort to Photoshop, and therefore YOUR opinion is very important, otherwise I would ask for it on the Photoshop site))

Tatyana, congratulations on a great start))) It's really nice to look at the model))))) I'm also learning. In my opinion, there's a pink tint on the shirt (should I try adjusting the white balance?) And there are yellow tones on the left cheek and on the left bangs (should I tone down the yellow?). These are my guesses, I hope they're appropriate...

Tatiana Gordomysova, It's not about the oiliness; everything is perfectly fine with hygiene, that's obvious. It's just that extra highlights are extraneous, distracting accents. Let your eyes shine, let your lips shine. That's enough.
