The only thing I might suggest is to reduce the intensity of the catchlight from the (presumably?) beauty dish in the eyes. They're a little too present and I'm finding my eye going there, instead of exploring the textures and tones of the makeup itself.
There's an awful lot in this image to enjoy - tones, textures, beautiful harmonious colour and a little bit of frivolity in the shape of the glitter in the hair and on the skin
Your detailed feedback is great appreciated I definitely experiment with reducing the brightness of the catch lights. FYI these were taken with a round flash. http://www.roundflash.com/ which I have found far less challenging to use then a beauty dish when using yn 560 II flashes.
