Character Creation Challenge Day 1

I'm challenging myself to sculpt a character every day, this is the first sculpt of the challenge. My rules are that I only have to sculpt the head+neck. I won't upload each of the sculpts. For some reason the material on the lips came out darker like he's wearing lipstick. It's not meant to be there, I don't know why it's happenening. I was intentionally exaggerating the features of this character, however it still feels more like a fluke.
