Something to remember too, is to try and diffuse any lights you have. Baking paper is an easy way. and if they are too 'yellow' in colour temperature, stick some light blue cellophane over the them, it will re-create a more natural daylight-type light. 1/4 blue Rosco Cinegel is the technical term for that stuff.
5600 Kelvin, i think, is around the 'daylight' type color temp, or it's at least what daylight film is calibrated for. Incandescent bulbs are lower, somewhere in the 3000s, and flouros vary, but they will often appear greenish, so a slight magenta filter will help correct that. good luck!
