Use one of the selection tools to select just the face and then make your adjustments.

I would also like to be able to change the colour of some faces - e.g. for some reason, one person in a group has a very red face
It would help if you post the picture of this group shot for targeted guidance.
You can do that via the camera icon at the top of the reply box. You can not do it in an e-mail reply, however.

here it is - I'd like to lighten her face - actually her whole body and also the starfish - but retain some of her tan.

here's one with the red faces -- normally my girls' faces are tanned - though the one with the pink shirt has a pinkish tone to her tan
thanks

Try this:
- Open the file
- Go to Enhance>Adjust lighting>Shadows/highlights, then work the sliders to decrease the shadows and to brighten the picture overall
- Open a Photo-filter adjustment layer. I used warming filter 85 @25% density. Check "Preserve luminosity".
- Sharpen with unsharp mask from the Enhance menu. (64, 1.7, 1)
- Use the clone tool to clone blond hair to the top of the little girl's head
