FLARE SOS what's inside

What's inside Flare SOS: the guided check, your trigger page, your Flare Report, 3 bonus PDFs and Clear Code recipes
Why are you still breaking out?

You're doing everything right and you still woke up to a new breakout.

Flare SOS walks you through the exact troubleshooting questions I ask when a client's skin flares, finds the 1 to 3 things most likely driving it, and hands you a two-week plan plus a meal plan and routine synced to where you are in your cycle. About 10 minutes, start to finish.

Built from 13 years of practice and 2,000+ women I've worked with.

Example:
Mimi before and after
A Clear Code Story

Acne made my life shrink.

Mimi had been to three dermatologists. Not one of them mentioned that her blood sugar could be behind her hormonal acne.

Once she knew which root acne trigger was hers, she knew what to change first. In her words:

The Clear Code finally gave me answers. I'd been to three dermatologists and none of them mentioned that my blood sugar dysregulation could be causing my hormonal acne. Eight weeks in and my skin is completely different.
- Mimi.

Mimi worked with me inside the Clear Code Program. Flare SOS starts with the same first step she did: finding your trigger.

Why this exists

The worst part was never the breakout. It was not knowing why.

When I had acne, the randomness was the thing that broke me. I'd done everything right, and my chin disagreed, and I had no way to figure out what went wrong. That confusion is its own kind of stress, and stress feeds the exact thing you're trying to calm down.

A breakout is usually a perfect storm of 1 to 3 things converging. Finding which 1 to 3 is the whole game.

Inside the Clear Code Program, troubleshooting is a full module. Flare SOS is that framework, pulled out and turned into a guided check you can run the morning something new shows up. You answer honestly, it maps your likely contributors, and you leave with a short plan instead of a spiral.

What guessing usually looks like

Six things I hear every week, and what changed once each of these women knew why.

Running your fingers across your jaw before you're even out of bed, checking for anything new.

“My mornings are so much faster.”
KATE

A shelf of serums you used twice.

“I can leave the house without makeup on and just love my skin.”
ASHLEY

Taking out dairy, then gluten, then sugar, and still breaking out.

“I drink Greek yogurt with berries and nuts now. After 10 years of being afraid of dairy.”
CANDACE

A good week, then a flare, and no idea what changed.

“If and when it does and I see a breakout, I immediately know exactly why.”
MIMI

Another derm appointment that ends with another prescription.

“I've tried everything from Accutane, expensive facials, and working with Naturopaths. The Clear Code was the first thing that connected all the dots.”
ELSA

Wondering if this is just how your skin is going to be.

“I just thought that it would last forever. Finally the guesswork is over.”
CLAIRE

Words from women I've worked with inside the Clear Code Program.

None of that is a discipline problem. You've just never been told which trigger is yours.

It's cost you time, mental energy, and a lot of money. Flare SOS is how you stop guessing about this flare.

The method behind the check

Your labs came back normal. Your face disagrees.

A blood draw measures a handful of markers on one Tuesday morning. Your skin is responding to a pattern that runs the whole length of your cycle.

So I read signals instead. This is the Pattern Panel.

How it works

Three steps, one report

1

Answer the questions

Your cycle, your food, your digestion, your stress, your products, your life. The same 9-question check I run with clients, in plain English.

2

Read your Flare Report

Flare SOS maps your answers to your 1 to 3 likely contributors and explains, gently, what's probably going on underneath.

3

Run your two-week plan

You get 2 to 3 specific action steps, not nine, plus a meal plan and daily routine matched to your cycle phase. You roll back, you don't pile on, and you re-check in two weeks.

What changes when you know why

Geena before and after
The Clear Code didn't just clear my skin - it taught me how to read my body's signals. Now when I get a small breakout, I know exactly what's out of balance and how to fix it quickly.

Geena

Candace before and after
I got off the pill and had horrible, horrible acne. After joining the Clear Code, I realized that I had been overcomplicating acne clearing, and it became much, much simpler.

Candace

Kelly before and after
It's not your fault. You're not doing anything wrong. You just need the right tools, the right foods, and a tailored plan - the Clear Code is it.

Kelly

Elsa before and after
I've tried everything from Accutane, expensive facials, and working with Naturopaths. The Clear Code was the first thing that connected all the dots between my gut health, liver function, and my skin. Wish I'd found this years ago.

Jill Therese, founder of The Clear Code
I WAS YOU.

Hi, I'm Jill Therese.

I had acne for 15 years. Birth control, antibiotics, every prescription cream, over-the-counter cream and holistic cream I could find, stopping short only at Accutane.

For 15 years, I asked if the Skittles and the Dr. Pepper were affecting my skin, and every time someone said, 'No, you're crazy.' I should have trusted my intuition.

When I finally started looking at what I was eating, when I was breaking out, and what else was going on in my life, about 30 days later my skin was clear. It has been ever since.

For 13 years, I've helped 2,000+ women inside the Clear Code Program find their root acne triggers. Flare SOS is the first thing I walk every one of them through when their skin flares, made into something you can do on your own.

What's inside

The full troubleshooting kit

What you'll walk away with

  • You'll know which of the six root acne triggers is most likely driving this flare.
  • You'll have 3 steps for the next two weeks, and nothing else new to add.
  • You'll know where you are in your cycle and what to eat this week because of it.
  • If your routine is part of it, you'll know what to put down.
  • You'll have a way to check again in 14 days and see what changed.
  • The next time your skin flares, you'll know where to start.

The guided 9-question check

The full diagnostic, covering your cycle, food, digestion, stress, topicals, supplements, life events, and your honest 80% check. Run it as many times as your skin needs it, for as long as you need it.

Your Flare Report, downloadable

Every check ends in a dated report: your likely contributors, why, and your 2 to 3 action steps. Save it, print it, or bring it to your practitioner.

Your cycle-synced meal plan

Tell it where you are in your cycle and your report comes back with a day of meals from that phase's clear-skin foods, what to limit right now, and the seeds your hormones want this half of the month. Menstrual, follicular, ovulatory, and luteal each get their own plan.

The paired phase routine

Food is half of it. Each phase also comes with its skincare ritual (when to exfoliate, when to leave your skin alone), the right kind of movement, and the self-care your energy can actually match this week.

The action step library

Specific steps for every common contributor. Constipation, loose stools, and bloating each get their own plan. So do new actives, stopped products, antibiotics, and the week your whole life changed.

Your flare history

Every report is dated and saved. By your third check, patterns start showing themselves, like three flares in a row that all trace back to the same contributor. That pattern is your answer.

Your trigger's own page

Each of the six primary triggers has its own standalone page: your action steps, the right downloads, and the exact videos to watch next. Your report sends you straight there.

The printable worksheet

The same check as a fill-in PDF, for the women who think better on paper. Keep it inside your journal and it becomes a record of every flare you've ever solved.

Already deeper in?

Flare SOS is the fire extinguisher. The Clear Code Program is the rebuild.

This tool tells you what's likely driving a flare right now. The Clear Code Program finds your root triggers, builds your customized acne-clearing plan, and works with you until your skin is clear. Clear Code students get Flare SOS included.

If you're done troubleshooting breakout by breakout and want the whole thing handled, naturally, sustainably, for life, that's the program.

Learn about the program

I've tried everything. Why would this be any different?

I hear some version of this sentence every single day at this point. You've already done a lot; the pill, a few rounds of antibiotics, the elimination diet, the labs that came back normal.

Most of those were aimed at the breakout itself. Flare SOS starts one step earlier. It asks what's been going on with your cycle, your food, your digestion, your stress and your routine over the last few days, and it points to the root acne trigger that's most likely behind this flare.

So you're working on the cause of this flare instead of guessing at the symptom. Does that make sense?

Questions

Asked and answered

What if more than one thing is going on?

It usually is. Breakouts are most often a perfect storm of 1 to 3 contributors, and the report ranks yours so you know where to start. You address the strongest signal for two weeks, then re-check. You don't try to fix nine things at once.

How soon after a breakout should I run the check?

A one-off blip, give it a few days. A new pattern of breakouts, or any sudden worsening, run it that week. The check helps you tell the difference between a blip and a pattern, which is half the battle right there.

Is this the Clear Code Program?

No. This is one framework from the program, turned into a standalone tool. The program is the full root-cause process: your triggers mapped, your customized plan, weekly group coaching, and me working with you until your skin is clear. Flare SOS handles the flare in front of you. The program handles the reason flares keep happening.

Do I need to be tracking anything for this to work?

No, and you can start today from memory. That said, the check gets sharper the more honestly you can answer, so even three days of notes in your phone before you run it can make a real difference.

Is this medical advice?

No. I'm a certified nutritionist, not a doctor, and this tool is education, not diagnosis. Anything involving medications or supplements gets run past your doctor.

The next time your skin flares, you'll know where to look.

Flare SOS is $27, one time, with lifetime access. Take the check, get your Flare Report, and start your 3 steps tomorrow morning.
