    so yeah main light above eye level about 45 degrees with a soft box or beauty dish or umbrella then a second light below eye level on the other side at about 45 degrees filling in shadows under chin - could get away with a reflector even. Meter the 2 lights seperately and set your camera up to expose for the main light, then experiment with your fill light settings - start 1/2 a stop less bright then go down from there - loads of stuff on t'internet about lighting ratios and fashion / glamour shoots on a budget - experiment like hell
