I much prefer the unsharpened. I agree that the sharpened version looks unnatural. How big was the file from which this detail was sliced? Mine was 6144 by 4101 and it was from an *istD RAW file, so in effect the detail slice was at 200%, since the original had already been interpolated.

More to the point, guess the degree of unsharp mask.....
That looks truly unnatural.

Yes and no. Don't forget the make-up, truly making the subject looking "unnatural" (more than the picture ;-)

OK, so you can choose between no USM (left) and USM (right).
I believe 90-1-0 to be more acceptable for a 90x60cm print like this, but if
you prefer the natural way, you could also print the untouched picture on
the left.
