I have to be honest: This can use a lot of improvement. Your perspective is very off. The detail of the lips and eyebrows look scratched in with little thought to light and shadow. I think if you spent some more time building up your basic art fundamentals first before dropping in premade brush effects to detract the viewer from the lack of technique will help you in the long run.
This is good work if your a beginner, I know people seem to be getting a little hurt for you hitting the front page of Reddit but try not to take their comments to heart.
I would like to add though, try working on your tone a little more building up a lot more layers because although the texture is lovely it feels a bit rushed and unconsidered.
Vary your brushes too, I started out using Kyle's brush kits which are fantastic for a variety of textures but you can also use others or create your own. Just enjoy playing around with them and see what effects you can achieve.
Keep up using references whilst you practice but also draw from life too and in a traditional medium, paint digitally a little everyday even if it's just some rough compositions.
But it takes a lot to put your work up online and it's not bad, doesn't deserve unconstructive negative feedback.

Looks oddly similar to this image. Did you base your sketch off of it? Aside from that, nice work, love the detail in the lines.
