Post original up so we can get a better idea comparison of your work so far.
 
What exactly do you want to achieve more eye brow/ less eybrow longer eyebrow hair different color eyebrows etc etc

I wanna make the eyebrows little bit thick & longer...I feel that there is something wrong with these eyebrows.
 
You could use the clone to to extend them a bit, but with that in mind it would be a matter of taste or wants where to stop. Something like that is trial and error until you get what you like. and individual preference.
 
This is an older tutorial but it's still a good one on this subject,

Thank you.

I also need your comments on my retouching work so far.
 
You could also consider using Eyebrow brushes.

Your retouch is nice and subtle. Her face is not overdone. Looks pretty good!

I see that shes not wearing much, if any, make-up. I would like to see just a bit more color to her lips.
 
I'm thinking skin has lost a bit of detail but not seeing where you started from makes it near impossible to comment on your work.
 
Hmmm that picture didn't show up before my last post

Yes I tried to use brushes before but I got bad results..I'll learn how to use it.

Thanks for your opinion about my work...I'll add some makeup on lips & eyes & maybe cheeks.
 
I'm not suggesting that you add make-up, just a little color to her lips.

mmmmm..can I know why ?..I mean I see retouchers work includes adding full makeup & maybe fake eyelashes too !

I need to have such work...or this pic isn't suitable for adding full makeup ?

Your not understanding me. You certainly can add any full make-up to her if you want!!!
 
So your opinion is I lost some of skin details ?...I faced this problem many times before but I wanna get smooth skin not only remove skin flaws.

The smoothness is a preference thing. How far or much you smooth out is your taste. I think over smoothing makes for an obvious treatment and remove the real features of ons face. Sometimes that's a good thing, sometimes not.
 
I would suggest cloning out the hairs on the lids and above the brow. Most women tweeze or wax them off anyway! :mrgreen: Also, they could use some thinning under that brow. I definitley would lengthen them out as they are too narrow at the outside ends.

You might also try using liquify and moving the left eyebrow (on her left) down some.You could also do that with the clone tool if you can't get good results with liquify (it does take practice).

Consider using the burn tool (on a layer above, fill with 50% grey, set to soft light or overlay, and you can make non-destructive changes) to diminish the shadow under her right eyebrow and maybe along that side of her face as well.

You need a little better balance, but not plastic or unrealistic. Her thicker brow are part of her charm and beauty. I agree on the eyebrow brushes. Otherwise it takes a long time to learn to make hair strokes! Do your brush strokes, then use a medium soft, low opacity eraser to blend them in naturally.

Check the skin and make sure you have not over-smoothed it. Among other things, plastic means malleable, but plastic also means hard and shiny and skin isn't free of blemish or pores.

Keep up the good work.
 
Here is my interpretation using the work you have done to this point. I did add some cheek and eye makeup as well as lips, but tried to keep it subtle. She sure doesn't need any. Except the lips. I agree with that. They just photographed too pale.

There is too little definition in the eyebrows to warrant using brushes, so I just used the clone tool. I used the dodge as I suggested above, maybe too much on the side shadows, but also used it on the eyes and added a "whiskey" color to them. I didn't do the greatest job with the liquify but it was easier and smoother than I expected.

One more suggestion: burn the lower lashes on her left eye; her mascara, if that's what it is, is a bit unbalanced. Or touch them up with a paint brush, maybe set the layer to soft light or even hard light and adjust the opacity.
