Honestly, I think it is fine just the way you made it.

up the contrast.. blur the eyeliner maybe so it looks smoother.

here's what it should look like after you play around with the brightness/contrast & blur the eyeliner a bit. i also used the burn brush (set the exposure to 35 and range to highlights) on your eyecolor to make your eyes shine more

it takes like 3 minutes :)

?

u have to give a before shot but the skin tones look fine

Make the contrast go up so it is nice and bright:]

Your really pretty by the way and I think it looks fine just the way it is. Lol.

A bad picture is a bad picture. Photoshop cannot save it.

I'd reshoot with proper exposure, focus and contrast.
