So I thought I might help you
First off, let me just say, that I had no idea you were working from a ref. And as such, I totally made an entirely different character and turned it into an entirely different bone structure. When I was doing the redline, I was solely basing it off of what I was looking at. Just bear in mind that I literally had no idea you were working from reference, lol. That was my mistake.

HOWEVER, I still have some good critique. First off, your eyes are slightly too far apart, but they are at the correct angle. The right brow needs to come down in order to match the eye-line. Or, actually, raising the left eyebrow might match the reference better.
Next, her cheekbone is way sharper and higher than the one you have. And look how much you rounded the far side of the face. In the ref, you could simplify that into one graceful line. Her nose it pointing a totally different direction than what you painted. Take a look, the bridge of her nose makes a nice tangent with the far wing. It creates this cool little curve underneath the nose. Actually looking closer, there's this super cool S curve underneath the nose that wraps around the mouth barrel, then fades as it curls around the closer nostril. Just be sure to check the angle that her nose is descending in comparison to yours. In your painting, you have made sure to include the entirety of both nostrils, but in doing so flattened the nose and created the illusion it was going somewhere else.
Your mouth is way too small and at the incorrect angle. And her chin in the ref is actually quite large desu. The lips don't curve away from the face in your painting as they should in the reference. I'm not going to bother with the hand, but just know it's wrong and tiny.

Overall, the eye angle is good, but everything else seems to be angled as her head was level with the ground. It's not, and I'd suggest constructing noses and mouths from ref/imagination at many angles.
