Excellent. But I'd consider lifting the very darkest areas selectively - I don't know what your post skills are like, would you to talk about this, or me to do a version? The jpg would do but a link to a raw could help if that's useful.
Actually - maybe you already have? But not enough to quite work in the smaller version.
Just a brighter version of the image with sharpened eyes, then layer mask. The eyes probably show too much now, but a tweak of the opacity slider would control that.

Whatever - great composition!
Thank you. Link to the raw file of this photo

Another option to David's suggestion would be to use a reflector to fill some of the shadows. I like the pose and the overall feel of the image.
