My client was experiencing great results but says ever since the humidity hit here, she broke out all over again. Mostly, bumps all over her forehead. She's using Green Tea Cleanser, Glycolic Scrub 2x week, light aloe moisturizer, ageless skin serum, cuc toner and the blemish spot treatment. I asked her to switch her makeup as well, which she did. She hasn't been to me for treatments as she's a busy Mom and lives in IL (I'm in  WI, even though she knows there are places in IL she can get treated with SS). I'm not sure if there's anything more or less we should be doing? If I need to get her on something totally different (Skin care line-wise)? Or she should go back to the dermatologist route?

Any suggestions? She also said nothing has changed in her eating or drinking habits since she started SS in May.

Is she using sunscreen? If not glycolic can cause a little rash like that. It makes the skin sensitive to the sun and I have seen this happen with my clients. Ask her this first.

What are you doing for professional treatments?  I'm thinking a Blueberry enzyme or a Pomegranate enzyme.  Also, maybe you could have her use the Blemish Toner Pads on the forehead.  If people are really oily, and they are using both the Ageless Hydrating Serum and the Light Aloe Moisturizer, I have them discontinue either one.

It's common for this to happen with the change in humidity, it's usually from excess sweat, or a change in hair care products to tame frizz.

Thanks for chiming in, everyone. I haven't heard back from her yet (I asked her a lot of the questions you asked me below). More to come...

Sara: I don't remember exactly where I read or heard that Ageless Serum is not recommendable for humidity areas. This stuck to me bc I'm in Houston HOT AND HUMID! Lisa V, please correct me if I'm wrong.

The Ageless Hydrating Serum is designed to add more water to the skin, so in the case when there is excessive humidity, you want to use either a moisturizer or the serum (probably not both).

Interesting! We have a lot of humidity in Wisconsin and it's always dry air here. I'm going to tell her about this, and see if it helps her. Thanks so much Casandra for bringing this up, and thank you Lisa for confirming.
