Really like to know what you think of photo not just ratings

This one really does not work for me. The oil is creating too many "hot spots" on her body. If you are after a slight "sheen", then you might want to make the oil layer much thinner, i.e. rub it in more. Also, lighting with a very large soft light source (i.e. a softbox reflected off of a large wall) would probably reduce the "hot spots".

Sorry, I agree, doesn't really work.

I like the idea, but the lighting is far too harsh.

The reflections on the body are not appealing to me,

which I am sure is not intended.

Try retaking the same shot using different types of lighting.
