color help, please

[JenR]

Hi all,

I could really use some help with this one... The color seems off to me, but I can't quite put my finger on the problem. It seems as if anything I do to it makes things worse. Any thoughts? I would also love to hear any other feedback on any other issues. I've got my hard hat on, so feel free to skip any sugar coating and let me hear the unvarnished truth.

Well after looking at the original I think you did a good job on your edit. You might find someone else who can help more in the editing department but for what I see I think it looks good!

The only thing that stands out to my eye is that she has pink on, pink lipstick, a bit of pink rouge, and he has a naturally pinkish/reddish complexion. So maybe you're looking at it like your reds are off?

Ok. I felt that their complexions were too red and splotchy. I have this problem too as I am very fair skinned.

I changed the reds some. See what you think.

Looks good!
Perhaps what your picking up on is not a problem with the colour so much as the fact that both of their set of eyes are in shadow... Just a thought.

Thank you all for your time, comments, and edits. I appreciate it!

I think hyakuhei may be right about the problem being with the eyes beingg in shadow.
