I don't see "glamour," I see muddy and unfocused.

Try using the cloning tool at 10-15% over areas that are harsh - eye underbags, cheeks, etc. Don't loose the eyes, eyebrows, hair texture.... just makes it look overdone!

Are you doing this in PS?
I have found a plugin that really works great for doing stuff like this. It is virtual photographer:

Makes it really easy to do different things.
