I would say the main problem is that you constrained yourself way too much with the shadows and lights. You only used mid tones and as a result, your paint lost all contrast. Also, the anatomy of the face is not right. One part of the face (left) looks like it is anime yet the right part looks like it is correct human anatomy.

In this image, you can see the human face is more angular and that the left eye is partially hidden by a combination of perspective and shadow cast by the nose. Also, you can see in between the nose and the eye there is a small depression. I don't know if you used resources for this draw but I would highly recommend you to stop and look at the small details of the human face in your the next painting. You may think they are insignificant but the lack of them make the face look weird. The nose, for example, the nostrils are too small and you didn't include the alas. Also, there is subtle slope between the eyes you didn't include. The upper area of the mouth is usually more illuminated and there is a deeper shadow in the area under the head following the neck. I can only think of these things right now. Don't get discouraged, you are on a good track, keep the hard work.
