Her nose looks like it could be just a little tad wider and the upper lip is not that curved; its middle is bigger. Also, make her jaw one or two clicks more pointy and the forehead wider. Other than that, I can't find anything to improve about the facial structure.

Maybe try narrowing it just til the skin looks less shadowed? And yes, she looks rather close, though you might want to try one shade darker on the skin too?

May I offer a couple of suggestions? One way to make the face seem rounder is in BodySHop (not CAS) there is a selection to lift the face higher so the forehead is not so long. That long forehead is what makes the face look so long. Also, on that 3/4 profile, she has good cheekbones and her eyes are not recesssed into her head. Your sims forehead is too pronounced and the sims cheekbones are flat. I think if you fix those basic shapes, perhaps use a different start model, you'd get a better final sim. Good luck! :0)

The only thing that looks odd to me are the shadows around her cheek (yeah, Bodyshop lighting -.-), but these might vanish in-game. Could we see some screenies of her in the CAS?

Also, her entire face look too streched out, especially the nose. Try getting another picture and putting them side-by-side to compare.

Ew, honey. Looks like you've got a case of overworking it. It looked better when you first started.

It also looks like you turned the tip of her nose up a tiny bit too much. But overall, I think you've captured her quite well
