Here's a quick and dirty:

I think first you need to start with a bigger image of yourself.

I only used two filters in Photoshop: "Find edges" and "Cut out".

You also need to work with layers and opacity.

In a nutshell there are three images (well, four if you count the PBR bottles in the background).

Image one: a sharpened version of the image you provided ... that's the bottom image.

Image two: the find edges version of the image you provided ... that's the second layer.

Image three: The cut out version of the image you provided ... that's the top layer.

I then adjusted the opacity for each layer until I got a close approximation of what you are going for.

Then I added the bottles (desaturate, adjust brightness/contrast as needed). Moved those behind you (by changing layers). I didn't take as much time to do those as I could have which is why they look so choppy.

If you start with a larger image it will be easier for you to do cutouts and edge work. Then you can reduce the whole thing to match the scale of the intended result.
