it's called High Key.
first (using PhotoShop), desaturate, go into curves, and bring up the middle curve point 'til the it's pretty darn bright, but still has a slight curve in the highs.
Then create a duplicate layer, add a Gaussian Blur at about 30, then set the layer blending options to Overlay. Create a layer mask, and darken out a bit around the eyes, and whatever else you want to show through a little more.
do some burning on the original layer and Gaussian layer to get the touch you want.
I also added another layer of the original image so that it shows up very little and adds just a touch of color that can barely be seen.
And then painted the eyes and lips with the paint brush set to Colorize, and a low transparency.

play around, have some fun, experiment.
And DA as well as other places online have great tutorials!
