This is the best I could do in 14 min. and a low res. image
didnt like the frame at the end, but had allready uploaded.

All steps in Photoshop CS3

1.- Fixed Exposure

2.- Used selective color to remove redness

3.- Healed Blemishes

4.- New Layer, select soft light blend mode, Fill Neutral Color (50% Grey)
set the forground to white , go over the redness that was left over and the wrinkles with a soft brush. and merge the layers

5.- I used DCE Tools Portrait Skin Cleaner, a Photoshop Plug-in, to clean skin you can use a different one theres a lot of free plug-ins like this one free.

6.- New Layer, put a little make-up on cheeks

7.- New Layer put a little lipp color

8.- Flatten Image.

9.- Remove Background, add new background.

AND YOUR DONE !!

would have looke a lot better with a high res. image.
