You probably already realise this and any moron can point out proportional issues but your, Proportions of the face are off. Her face features align to the thirds rule fairly well; hairline to brow, brow to bottom of nose, bottom of nose to bottom of chin are almost equal thirds. Measure yours, and see where you went off.
Structure and alignment of the eyes and nose are also not set using the anatomical landmarks of the skull in perspective. One example her right eye (our left) is higher than the other and seems to sit above where the socket should be. Most likely these issues could be helped at first by thinking a little more constructively when placing your base measuring landmarks. i.e. draw a shape for the entire brow and socket area simplified first, when that orientation and placement feels right then place the eyes. Similar problems happened with the end of the nose and her mouth where perspective and placement became skewed and sends her off to uncanny valley.
Attempting to see the larger structures underneath for a bit in your approach may help you with placement as well as just getting more rigorous with your measurement. Always check and re-check your first assumptive measurements if something seems off. Step away from the drawing regularly, or use a photo on your phone to see it small. It's amazing what errors one sees just from a few steps away every so often.
