This is revolting! Just the way I like it - though in this case, while I really like it, there's just enough gooey bits to make my stomach kind of hurt. Well done, that's how you do it <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" />
The use of Kleenex here is wonderful. I really like how it is just convincing enough that you know in the back of your head that it's not real, but your eyes want to digest it as actual fact. The smearing isn't overabundant, there isn't so much that it's distracting and annoying, and like I already said, it's kind of stomach turning <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> (in a good way!)
The strange blue/green of the gloves almost makes me think of Christmas, and it being the season, I find that it fits very well, the colors aren't clashing, and it's realistic and yummy.
Unfortunately (there is always one of those) the texturing is distracting to me. I think that it would have looked a lot more real without it. I'm not sure why you added it, perhaps it's a personal touch, but it doesn't lend the skin any quality that the already harsh lighting wouldn't have done. Thankfully, it's not all over the piece and seems to be only in the corners, which is a relief because I think any more and the entire photograph would have been slightly dulled for me, and the experience of critiquing it, as well as viewing it, has been wonderful.
The size and crop of this is fantastic as well, you've managed to leave nothing in or out that should or should not be there, your watermark isn't too overpowering, and again, it's just disgusting <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> Which is what I am sure you are going for.
Possibly my second favorite from what I've seen from you - I can't wait to see more! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />
