Specific Shadow Removal/Color Adjustment

[garnidella95]

Hello, I would really appreciate it if you could Photoshop this. Wants the shadow effect from the character below to be removed and only shows the skin color. Only want the 1st pic (one with no background) to be corrected. You don't need to correct the 2nd one, it's just to make clear about the shadow. Thanks in advance !

Here is an attempt. I am willing to do some minor changes if needed. To do a thorough job is very time taxing.
