It can also be the light. If it’s a cooler CCT which people tend to use it will mute a lot of colors pretty bad. Wanna go warmer about 4000-5000k. Using high CRI helps as well. OP’s looks cooler than I would have gone.
It’ll be more like being in a jewelry store. They have great lighting if you have ever noticed. I believe even the nicer make up places do this as well. Could be wrong.
TLDR: could be color temp of light and not the light being too dim.
