Default Cheekbones Vs Man Make up

Hi, this is the first post i've made. But i wanted to get some critique on some processing i did on a photo of me from a recent night out. Anyway, i was playing around with my Nikon Coolpix L5 all night, and although i can't exactly remember i think this was taken in portrait mode.

I did some post processing, overlay Gaussian blur, dodge and burn on the eyes and teeth, wind filter on the surround to make it less obvious i was in the toilets.

But what i specifically want to get feedback on was the dodge and burn on the cheeks to make it appear to have cheek bones. Has this and the post processing in general gone too far and given the impression of man make up?

Any comments appreciated.
