Here’s an edit for your portrait which basically adds a tattoo to the face and some weird alterations which screw up an image. Its more of a fun tutorial, don’t know if it will be useful. It was a bit inspired by Nikhil’s pic which he posted.
Step 1: Open up your image. A Portrait would do good in this case. I used the extremely hot Lindsay Lohan wallpaper.

Step 2: Select the face and all other skin parts (Chest, neck). Make sure you don’t select the eyes and the lips.
To go about this step you might want to use the Magnetic Lasso Tool (L). The Pen tool would do best though. To unselect the Lips and Eyes, just press Alt while dragging again (Alt minuses while Shift dragging adds). Anyway, I wont go into detail of selecting stuff.
Step 3: Press Ctrl+U to bring up the Hue/Saturation box. Just reduce the Saturation Value by half or something till you get a desired effect.

Step 4: Go to Filter > Noise > Add Noise and give a value of 1.7 to 3 depending on your image.
Step 5: Next, select the Lips using whatever tool you feel like. Press Ctrl+U to bring up the Hue/Saturation box again and this time increase the Saturation Value till you get a bright red. If it brightens to a different colour, just move the Hue Slider till you get a red.
Step 6: Create a new layer (Ctrl+Shift+N). Change the Blend mode of this layer to Color. Then, take you Brush tool and change your foreground colour to Red. Now, paint right over the Iris to make them bloodshot red. Zoom in if you find it hard to trace the edges.
Step 7: Create yet another layer and select the Pencil tool. Take a size of 1 and change your foreground colour to yellow. Now, imprint little spots of yellow in the eyes to give it a slight glow.

Step 8: Now take the Custom Shape tool which is under the Rectangle Tool Flyout (U). In your options bar,

select your shape as shown in the figure. If you cannot find it (Sun 1), then just click the button on the upper right and select “All�.

Step 9: Press D to reset your colour palette. Create a new layer. Shift+Drag the shape to an approximate size. Now, change the Blend mode of the layer to Color.(You can play around with blend modes.) Duplicate this layer (Ctrl+J)
Step 10: Now take the Eraser tool and erase all those parts of the shape which are going out of place. (You might want to Hide visibility of the duplicated layer to see the effects properly.)
Step 11: Move the duplicated layer and do the same as step 10.
Step 12: Take the Burn tool (O) and darken some areas under the eyes. You could also darken the pupils. I also used the Color Replacement Tool (J) to add a little blue colour to the hair.
