Nice shot.

I believe the effect we're talking about is probably done with a dome or very large softbox from above the model with fill lights either at 90 degrees or 45 degrees to create almost an even light across the face of the subject with a hint of falloff to one side or the other, creating the illusion of a single light source, but very delicately.

The fills are either behind white /translucent scrims or panels....

This is something I've been meaning to try, especially to really accent the eyes in certain models. I know one with very vivid blue eyes that are striking. I've really got to give it a shot with her and see the results against a blue mulsin.
