Step 1

Let’s start out by creating a new file. I used a 600×500 pixels canvas set at 72dpi, and I filled my background with white color shade. Now make a new layer, using the Brush Tool with a large soft brush paint a black spot on your canvas. Then in a new layer draw an ellipse with #6AB9E7 color shade and 200 x 156 px dimensions on the black spot.

Step 2

Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Shadow and Inner Glow blending options to the light blue ellipse layer.

Step 3

In a new layer draw a small and long white ellipse. Rotate the white ellipse through Edit > Transform and position it as shown below. Then set the layer's blending mode to 30%.

Step 4

In a new layer draw a white ellipse with 89 x 89 px dimensions.

Step 5

Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add a DropShadow and Inner Glow blending options to your white ellipse layer.

Step 6

Create a new layer then draw a light brown circle with #F1D8BA color shade and 74 x 74 px dimensions.

Step 7

Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Glow and Gradient Overlay blending options to the light blue circle layer.

Step 8

In a new layer draw a large light brown ellipse with #F1D8BA color shade and 142 x 152 px dimensions.

Step 9

Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Shadow, Inner Glow and Gradient Overlay blending options to the large light brown ellipse layer.

Step 10

In a new layer draw a white slanted ellipse on the head design similar from step three.

Step 11

Now in a new layer draw a black ellipse with 123 x 76 px dimensions on the head design as shown below. Then set the layer's blending mode to Soft Light.
