Thank you! She is Simone from the 2002 movie of the same title. Kidding. She's just a SIM-ulation ONE, a collage from thin air. Not really proud of it tbh. Many more are deserving of the placement. But thanks for your comments and votes! 🥺🫶🏻

Edited to add: Yes, it was shot through the glass. I aligned the “tear” with the bubble in the glass, and used the base of the glass to magnify the same eye.
