Using the reference photo, do not change the young woman’s appearance. Preserve her distinctive facial features and natural proportions.
Create an atmospheric selfie in the aesthetic of Dark Mermaid Diary × 2014 Tumblr Ocean Girl. It should look like a front-camera iPhone 5s photo in a vertical 3:4 format, framed closely from the collarbones to the top of the head. The phone is held at arm’s length, slightly above eye level and a little to one side; the device itself is not visible. Preserve the natural perspective of an older smartphone selfie, with no flash.
The young woman has expressive eyes and soft, sensual lips. She is sitting on damp sand by the sea, wearing an airy white dress with thin straps, a loose bodice, and soft folds. Her hair is very long and thick, slightly tousled by the sea breeze, with relaxed waves and fine strands around her face. The top section is loosely pinned back with a small clip; the rest falls over her shoulders. She wears small silver earrings and a fine chain necklace with a tiny pendant. Her nails are long and almond-shaped, with translucent pearl polish.
Makeup: Ocean Doll Eyes, with the main emphasis on expressive eyes. Use cool pink-gray eyeshadow, a fine softly blended wing, very long black doll-like lashes, and a few distinct manga-style lash spikes. Make the neatly coated lower lashes especially noticeable. Keep the brows fluffy and brushed upward. Apply a light, cool berry-pink blush toward the centers of the cheeks, subtle contour, and small pinpoint pearl highlights. Line the lips in muted cocoa-rose and blend the color toward the center; finish with cool pink-nude lipstick in a glossy, wet-look finish.
Pose her sitting slightly sideways, with one knee drawn up just beyond the lower edge of the frame. Her phone-holding arm reaches upward and a little to the right; her free hand rests on her shoulder with relaxed fingers. Tilt her head slightly toward the raised shoulder and lower her chin a little. She looks directly into the lens with a slightly dreamy gaze, her lips barely parted. Show dark seawater and a soft line of breaking surf in the background.
Lighting: natural, cool twilight from the open sky, brighter on the sea side. Light her face from the front and slightly above, with a soft shadow beneath the chin. No flash or artificial fill light.
Color grade: Faded Blue Tumblr 2014. Lower exposure by 0.8 stops; use a cool gray-blue balance, muted cyan-gray water, deep graphite shadows, slightly lifted blacks, low saturation, and soft milky highlights. Add noticeable fine digital noise, slight loss of detail in the shadows, and the characteristic softness of the iPhone 5s front camera. Avoid modern HDR. The image should look like an exceptionally good personal selfie from the old Instagram era.
Photorealistic, candid feel, high quality, and maximum detail in the hair, lips, eyelashes, lace, jewelry, and jacket fabric. Avoid plastic-looking retouching and any sense of AI-generated imagery. Add light digital noise and grain with soft sharpness.
