I wouldn't so much say it's a hobbie, but more of a passion... a passion in progress.
I currently have some courses relating to graphics but they taught me few and far between the useful aspects of photoshop that I hadn't already known.

The chin area, I believe I took her main base skin color, darkened it a little then used a 30px soft brush with a 30% flow. Once I liked the area I covered, I took a fat soft eraser brush (40-50px) and just went over it until it was very subtle.

The stars themselves were done using a grain filter on a black background. Then doubled the layer, increasing it's size, rotated it, made sure they were Linear Dodge. Carefuly erased, then clone tooled - making them look clustered. Then blurred (to create the cloud effect behind it). Finalized with a hue/saturation (colorize) and lens flares.
