Janet,

The skin tones are much more life-like this time around!

I agree with Linda about the neck lines. I would also take a bit of the darkest color of the hair and blend in at the forhead more to soften that edge right at her part. I think the hair looks lovely, but blondes especially seem to have a lot of cools in their hair (grays and blues)...just something to consider.

Edit - Im going to take that back about the cools in the hair since now that I look again you do have them. It may be the darkest area that Im drawn to - wanting to see it as cooler.
