There is a very strong crescent shaped swathe on the cheek. It seems to seperate itself from the form, not define it. Squint at your reference to check it's accuracy. See if you can soften it up a bit.

Alicia,
On the cheek on the shadow side of the face, the value has gotten too light in that "crescent shaped" area. There is reflected light, but the light in that shadow must remain a middle value, albeit a lighter middle value than the rest of the shadow. You have crossed over and made it a light value, the same value as the front of the face. This confuses the eye, and the head does not round out as it should.
Very nice start!
