Let me explain:
If you're adjusting the histogram manually or using the white dropper in the "adjust lighting" - yes do it as a layer. Go- copy from background- new layer. That way you can adjust the new layer & you still have the original pic as your background layer until you merge the two.

Sometimes (most times) you can overblow the white & lose too much from the pic. So do it as a layer then bump the opacity above 80 but less than 100%... you'll know when you hit the right %.

Tungsten lights are a PITA - always too warm, but I have them too. You can bounce the light or use a diffuser, also be sure set your WB to "tungsten" when using them.

Eventually replace those lights with "true lights" (low cost way) & a light box or tent which will work great... or get a nice speedlight or (ultimate) alien bees. You've a good eye for this, keep at it!
