Don't forget to keep the studio lights up! Okay... a'splain me your lighting for the first one please.

I am not liking the catch lights. The nose ring made her nose look funny on #3&4 from that angle.

Looks like a light source on each side of the lens provide an odd catchlight and really flat lighting with no shadows defining shape...

I get that, I was curious as to the reason the OP chose to light like that.

The full set shows pretty consistent harsh hair shadows across her forehead. Add to that the dual catch lights, tells me the lighting setup was more of a cross lighting rather than a Main and Fill setup. The lights are in conflict with each other instead of complimenting, even though you have a good ratio from one side of the face to the other in most of the images. Quite possibly the lights are too far away from the model or the modifier needs to be larger.

BTW, the red outfit is H-A-W-T!

It's a kind of a Martin Schoeller look.

I like the second picture quite a lot.
