Daz, Render with Lux, A5 skin white out

Hello, I have been working on an Aiko 5 render for a week and her skin is always too white no matter how dark I made the scene's lighting. I did a V4 render with the same lights and camera and she worked fine. So it has to be something to do with genesis and/or A5. I have several image examples and the one with only showing the face is the V4 but please excuse the bad figure, I was only using it as a test again the light I used in A5. These renders are daz, reality then lux software steps.

Any thoughts of what I am doing wrong?
Thanks
Kimberly

    Have you tried turning down the glossy setting in the genesis surfaces yet?

    No, in which software do I do that? I have been playing with skin setting just to see what happens but have no gotten any place.

    Yep, in Reality or Luxis one. Only way that will work.

    Turning down the glossy setting from, on the face skin, from 5000 to 1000 doesn't do much. Changing the top coat color seems to help some.

    Your images look as though the light is hitting them dead on. Exposure settings will help deal with this somewhat, so you can manually adjust them in the Luxrender interface, but I'd also recommend looking at the material settings.

    Reducing the glossiness will help, certainly, but there are a lot of contributing factors which can give varying results, such as multibounce settings and any translucency or mix values. Posting your material settings for the face will help us to better inform you.
