I was messing around with these images and tried overlaying colors and blending with the "screen" type.

If anyone has ideas of how I can tweak or make them look better let me know please

You could try using overlay or soft light for a milder effect, or even just pull the opacity back a little, as I'm not too keen on how some areas have blocked right up. Maybe even an layer mask with a very light grey on a large soft brush, in darken mode just to pull the blocked up areas back might also help.

I like the second one, the ortho-profile is a helpful stabilizer against the tilted color bands. The sharp transitions might need a smudge here and there.

Feather out the edges of the bands. You could use a layer mask on them and then a gradient mask on the mask to get a smoother blend.

It's not really my cup of tea, but I like this better than the initial edits, because the blending is not blocking up the shadows like you were before. The underlying images, especially the second one, are quite strong in their own right, which I think is a good thing, as too often you see this sort of processing added to a lackluster image in a misguided attempt to do something with it to make it useable. Any chance of seeing the original as a comparison.

Yeah these are creative edits so there are much more of just normal beauty shots from the shoot.
