Specular highlights on her body is not necessarily a bad thing with body builders. Sometimes it can accent their tone.

Sweat or oil on face with directional lighting is going to reflect the specularity where you don't want it right back into your lens. You can angle lights to minimize or accent specularity.

Perhaps oil her body but apply a nice foundation, make up and powder will cut down the hot spots on her face and forehead and yet her body will still shine with the oil and look ok.
