Taking A Closer Look
As we walk around whether in the neighborhood or on vacations our eyes are attracted to something and we choose to either ignore it or pick it up and carry it around before discarding.

... all in camera ...
This image from the late 1980s, predates all digital editing and what is captured, is exactly what was seen in viewfinder - there was no postproduction editing.

Model testing
This image was done in late 1980s on Polaroid's instant slide film Polapan - a prefect film for beauty and boudoir photography as skin tones were rendered silky.

I like the lighting on the first one. I think there's too much space on the right, though. Feels off balanced.
Definitely not a fan of that fake blurring, especially on the 2nd one. You went a little overboard on that one. You would have to know how DOF works to pull that off.
I think some great work has gone into creating these images. Hair, makeup, lighting, etc. I agree with Deleted User though, the aggressive edits take away too much with the blur and the halo/fringing. I'd work on balancing out the highlights or emphasizing the face more. The white flowers in both and the hands in the 2nd image are brighter than her face and draw my attention away.
