More vintage stuff - one heavily retouched, one not at all

Just stumbled across these again - from earlier in the year. I don't think I've previously shared them here. Apologies if I have!

Model: Sinopa Rin
Hair: Thairapy Freelance (vintage specialist)
Retouching: not by me. I thought it'd be interesting to see what a pro retoucher makes of my stuff. So.. I welcome feedback on the retouching in general terms, but the retoucher hasn't asked for critique.

2. Unretouched film scan (Ilford FP4+)

I like both images, but not sure about the pro retouch - there is something odd about the model’s top lip, and has her nose been remodelled? I am also not sure about the forearm/hand‍!
All imho of course.

Be interested to see difference between the original top photo and the retouched version so as to see what has been changed. I dont really think comparing a retouched shot to a different untouched shot gives many clues as to what has happened.
Are these both film shots or was the top one digital and/or scanned?
 
a quick Google for Sinopa Rin brings up some amazing Photos.

You were very fortunate to have such an super Model.
 
Two great pics. I’m no expert but to me the retouching hasn’t made a world of difference over the unretouched image. I guess that shows how valuable professional hair and make-up are.
