The best bet anon is made of two parts
1) choose the direction of your light source(s) based on what emotion/mood you wish to convey.

2) Know the general geography of the face, where theer are bumps or crevices wht is forward was is back. For example obviously the nose is a big bump so it will have a lot o light ad shadow around it.

Combine your knowledge these two and find which parts of the face are in light and shadow. Pic I tried to show it but didn't shade the background.

For a good example check this vid on how much the light direction changes the look of the face
