OK - image is up but what exactly do you want done?

She wants the shadow removed from the face (the word shadow is a typo... it's written as "show" in the original request).

Here's my quick attempt. This image looks like it has already been photoshopped. There are some very funky edges, such as this one:

@Rich54 - excellent work. I had started working on it with the assumption the OP meant shadow. But whatever I attempted ended up washing out the image.
Can you please provide some insight into your process?

Thanks.

I used the Color Sampler tool to place markers on two adjacent areas of skin that need to be the same color. I opened a Curves adjustment, selected marker #2, and individually adjusted the RGB channels to make its color equal to marker #1 (195, 171, 174). Then I filled the entire curves mask with black and painted it back in (with white) on just the shadow areas. That same curves adjustment also worked fairly well on her hair. Afterward, I toned-down a few hotspots on her forehead and elsewhere that seemed too bright.
