These are great! I especially like three and ten. Number eight might benefit from different text, or the same text with different cropping. It just looks like a little much, fancy text against a fancy background. Number nine can't seem to decide if it wants to be a smooth icon or a well-sharpened one. Maybe try blurring it in Photoshop, or cropping to get more skin detail. Maybe duplicate the base on six and set it to soft light, with the opacity lowered?

I hope that was helpful! I really love all your icons.

The ones you posted here are great icons and they differ from what you usually do.
1st - I have it saved because someone was wearing it and I liked it.
2nd - I love this style, you should make more icons like this! That set also contained icons with Olivia Wilde, as I remember.
3rd - don't you think Kate is stretched a bit? And I often see such things on your icons. the same about 4th.

Well, I wasn't going to comment on every icon in this post.

Just to say, in general, you have your own unique and recognizable style, maybe your icons are always not of great quality though. Try lighter colours and be more carefull with resizing!
