hey jose, thanks for sharing...
for a beauty shot i feel like it still need more retouching, the light is good, makeup looks fine, but there are few things you might want to consider to retouch again...

1. hairs on forehead (Yellow)
2. skin tone doesn't match
3. few liquify needed parts on hair and neck (Cyan)
4. Dodge & Burn (Black & White)
5. sharper texter on cheek than the rest of the face

you can save this image and put it on yours too see what i mean by all these =D
but in general, you did a good job, specially the light which i really liked it.

Quick Test

Thanks for your critic, how did you correct the skin tone evenly? hope to correct these problems on some of my future work.

its actually one of my own created LUTs, but you can use many different ways to correct it using Hue/Saturation adjustment, or making a new layer with specific color painted over the skin and then change the blending mode to Color or Hue, and then mask out the unnecessary parts...

Jose,
I like the lighting in this image, however there are a few things I would like to point out. First the hand popping up into the frame is distracting and pulling my attention away from the model's face. She also looks to be angry and for a beauty shot the model should look appealing.
