Default did I over do it in PP?

Hi all,
I was trying to get shadows off her neck and face and with the kind help of edbayani we've succeeded in doing so.
the thing that bothers me is that it feels a bit like a doll and not human but that may be because I know what the original look like.
what do you think?

B. Yeah, the skin, particularly on the face feels a bit plasticy/dolly to me. I noticed that feeling before even reading your text because, naturally, I noticed hot girl before noticing text.

i'd have to agree big fuzzy. skin looks a bit plasticy to me as well. you did good with getting rid of the shadows though.
