The retouching went a bit far but I guess that was expected from the client or at least was your vision for the photo. Don't get me wrong, the photo is amazing and the colors are just perfect! Was actually retouching for more than two years and seen a lot of requests and kind of decided to quit it.

It's the way of retouching I always do, clients know that luckily and know what to expect. :) Of course some people might find it "too much" , but this was also a project around "perfectionism" where I tried to create a almost porcelain doll look with a touch of artificial beauty.
The thing I don't like is when clients are being like; "can you make me look thinner, edit my nose, my eyes, etc..." because they wouldn't even look like how they really are. I'm trying to keep it "minimal" which means if you don't see the original pic, you wouldn't directly notice big changes. :)
Thank you for your comment!

And what you mentioned is actually what made me quit. Retouching models to a point where they wouldn't be able to even recognize them self. Again, amazing work, keep it up!

I totally understand that, such a shame that clients made you stop retouching. Thank you!
