Need help picking out lighting

[Ariana_]

Hi everyone! I pretty recently started camming and I'm trying to get all my equipment together. Are there any specific lighting kits that anyone would recommend? I'm mainly looking at this one here: https://www.amazon.com/CowboyStudio-Photography-Portrait-Umbrella-Continuous/dp/B003WLY24O

I already have a good HD webcam with a microphone. Is there anything else I should consider getting, purely for broadcast quality (so not toys or anything like that)?

Thanks so much

That's the lighting I use. Works great.

That's a good lighting kit. Just make sure you are a little gentle with it. Mine came kind of flimsy.

This is my second time owning them. The first time my ex took them for a youtube project and never returned them. I forgot how flimsy it was till my cat knocked one over and bent the umbrella. Luckily, super easy to bend back and they're relatively inexpensive, but still. ARGHHH!

For me, it's if I try to screw in the light bulb too tight. I like to secure my stuff, but if I try to secure the light bulb in these things the little ... metal part inside the stand pops out. Really frustrating xD

not sure you can see that well, I use an umbrella with a cold light then an Ikea lamp with warm light to compensate each other. Also, just to be fancy I got the selfie circle I attach it next to the camera . It looks awesome in complete darkness too
