The edges could be a lot smoother. What program are you using?

The tongue in the mouth's kind of weird.

Exactly what tutorial did you use?

Hm.

Well, so you don't have to worry about skin color selection at the moment, you might wanna google "skin color swatches" or something.

You just seem to need more practice at tracing shapes and making it a bit smoother. Also, the shading on the actual face - increase the contrast a little bit. Right now it looks really blotchy.
