You can try using a cheescloth screen. I read about it in one of my books but never tried it. Of course, it's troublesome to bring something like that outside, but hey, dedicated photographers will go long ways to get a great shot =)
Using a reflector is a simple and effective way, so you might want to try that first. You probably got the hint since it's been siad a few times already.

Karen, I would have had her back to the sun and used fill flash. Jim

I'm partial to the golden sun-look. It kind of depends on the look you're going for, though. If you want a traditional portrait look, wait a few more minutes until the sun is at the horizon and then turn her 45 degrees or so to the sun. This will give you soft light and good shadows. The white reflector trick with the sun at her back is another good one, too; though, you may lose a little of the quality from the setting sun. The 80A filter might actually warm the skin up even more, creating a muddled look. 80A is typically used when the color is fairly cold. So many possibilities!

There are probably a million ways you could do this. One of them is to have the model turn the other way (have the sun on her back and on a 45 degree angle) and use a white reflector. An other way is to use a filter to correct the color temperature (80A I think).
But the more knowledgable members of usefilm could either correct me, or sugest one of the other 999,998 ways you could have achieved the result you wanted...

This was shot at 6:30 at night. How would you have shot this to avoid the harsh yellow on her skin. I used no reflectors or flash. Just the sun.
