Please help - HSL sliders not working

This is most normally an issue where the user hasn't 'trimmed' the selection ... have you used the mask feature to see what you've actually selected?

In this shot, I simply clicked on her forehead, and this is all that was selected ... note where I underlined in red? That brings up this mask from the options, and when checked, shows you what you have selected.

The quickest way to figure out where your next step in isolating tones is to un-check the Sat and then the Luminance sliders, to see which action brings the wider selection of pixels you want to see into view in the mask. In my case, un-checking Sat did absolutely nothing, but un-checking Luminance suddenly got her whole face in ... and a few other things.

So at that point, I worked with the Luminance sliders, both widening and changing the mid-point, then pulling the Hue slider in tighter, to get the following ...

At this point I would normally set the Denoise to around 7-15, and blur to 3-7 or so, viewing on the Program monitor, so I get a smooth chatter/noise-free selection.
