Part of the problem is just what you stated
Beginner uses complicated application, hopes to become expert overnight
No Microsoft click-n-wish here.
You made a good start, got the images you want to use, matched sizes but that is not all. Check lighting and colour tones for a start.
Guilty of this myself, some basic knowledge of use is always assumed, which is not always the case.
Then there is the tutorial syndrome. Users slavishly follow a recipe created for a specific carefully chosen image and wonder why it does not work on their very different image.
Not a moron, you are asking for advice. Everyone here is always willing to assist.
Never easy working in the dark, so post examples of what you need to do. A portrait comes in so many different forms, not only the face, the background, quality of images as well.
