It's likely you haven't had ALM on long enough, i always get that when i turn on ALM after maybe 30secs - 1 min max i go back to normal. I use an older 'Origin' Lelutka head with low-ish materials glow set

I wish that were the problem. It stays like this the entire time until I shut it back off, unfortunately. 
I have one of the newish EvoX heads from Lelu, the Fleur head.

Why is the "Advanced Lighting Model" setting making my avatar's face look this horrid? I don't understand. 

I've tried facelights/bodylights to fix it. Nothing. Tried fixing the windlight, shadows, changing the sky... and nothing. I've reset the textures as well from the LeLutka HUD for the head.. and nothing.

I see people take these gorgeous photos where their skin and face look GREAT, but I turn on the "ALM" like everyone tells me to.. and this happens -_-
