As a whole, the photograph is very appealing. I like the expression and the mood is certainly intimate. My only criticisms, if I may, are: the overexposure on the right back of the model draws away the viewers attention and the two fingers of the left hand peeking up from the crop are distracting. As a side note, a red bra could have driven the message home a bit more.

Nice. I like how the reflection is framed and creates the composition.

Great concept for the challenge. The positioning of the lipstick is just a bit too staged and stiff. Despite the effectice furnishings, this is almost too noticeably done in a studio. Perhaps a tighter crop would have helped?

Pretty... but seems so contrived. I don't know... Something just doesn't work for me in it. I do like the splash of red and of blue.

great lighting; the complete gray wall, it disturbs me, it gives the image an artificial look

I would've liked to see a wider version of this shot. Here her top looks like a plain 'ol top, given the title & challenge theme I think lip that red should be paired with a not plain top. But with this crop, I cannot tell. Also would've liked to see some light on the right side of her face.

Beautiful composition, lighting and processing.

The image doesn't really imply intimacy to me. But your title at least hints that intimacy may soon be coming. I *do* like the lighting, the colors and composition.
