Mandy had great skin as a teenager but says she developed acne as an adult. “People were always very complimentary about my skin,” she told People. “But that made it all the more traumatizing when I hit 22 or 23, and out of nowhere, my skin started breaking out literally overnight.”

Mandy saw several dermatologists and an allergist, but nothing helped. “I was really weirded out,” she said. It wasn’t until she tried Proactiv that she got results. “I thought, ‘Really? I saw the infomercials all the time, and thought it wouldn’t be specific enough to treat my problem. ‘ It ended up being the only thing that worked,” she said. Based on this selfie, cult-favorite Biologique Recherche’s VIP o2 mask is also in her rotation.

Selena has always made a point of being honest and vulnerable with her fans, as her recent no-makeup Instagram post affirms. Having just made a fiery comeback in her music career, the former Disney starlet has said that it is actually her work that often causes her breakouts. “My chin gets it the worst because I hold my microphone as close to me as I possibly can, because some of my music has softer tones to it,” she told Allure. “So the chin is always the first area that I treat. I usually put a mask on and a humidifier on my face after my show.”

The former Disney star is no stranger to red carpets…and the scrutiny that comes with them. “I remember the first time I started to get acne, I started to see all these little bumps under my skin, and it just made me feel very insecure every time someone would look to me or talk to me,” the Neutrogena Ambassador shared in a video for the brand.

After one fan applauded Kendall for “strutting her acne” at the 2018 Golden Globes, Kendall replied,”never let that shit stop you. ” But, it took her a while to get to that level of confidence: “I wouldn’t look people in the eye. It was not a good time for me—it just killed my self-esteem. I thought when I didn’t look at someone, they couldn’t see my face,” she told Allure in 2015.

Taylor Hill

The Victoria’s Secret model is often praised by her Instagram followers for her transparency about her imperfections. In an interview with Allure, she shared, “I struggle with acne and I’ve struggled for a long time, probably since I was 15, because of makeup, travel, and hormones.” Although she keeps it under control for her career with her own system of skincare and facials, Hill is certainly not one to conceal her pimples with editing tools. “I’m a human being,” she said. “I’m a girl and it’s not easy being a woman. We go through a lot, and I think it’s cool to just make sure people know that.”

Hough has famously been a spokesperson for Proactiv and still includes their products in her recent skincare routine piece for Byrdie. In addition her tried-and-true products, she also vouches for natural solutions to monster zits, such as: “a really cold washcloth, or even an ice cube, and kind of massage the area a little bit.”

The actress told Refinery29 she “dealt with breakouts throughout my 20s, and even into my early 30s…All those years, I was trying to fix the problem, basically by dousing my skin with harsh acne treatments and seeing a dermatologist regularly, trying to figure out why I was experiencing both stress and hormonal acne.”

After many roller-coaster years of uncontrollable breakouts, it took true dedication to a healthy, natural “long-term skin solution,” which Wilde found in True Botanicals, for which she is the chief brand activist.

SZA

R&B artist SZA goes a more natural route when dealing with her acne. “I have cystic acne, so I use a Manuka honey mask to combat it and hemp oil to smooth out the surface of my skin,” she told Refinery29. “Don’t get discouraged with your skin when it doesn’t do what you want it to do. Give it some time.”

Lorde

Lorde opened up via Instagram Stories about all the inane advice people give you if you have acne. “People are still like, you know what worked for me? Moisturizing! Coconut oil. The secret is coconut oil,” she revealed in a funny moment. The worst, she said, is when people just think you’re dirty. “Do you wash your face? It’s like, yes I wash my face. I’m just genetically cursed,” she said.

44 Stars With Acne Who Prove You’re Not The Only One

Because of all of the stylists, the make-up teams and, of course, the photoshop, it’s easy to forget that celebrities are human beings who can occasionally suffer an outbreak of spots, too. Yep you heard it here first, celebs can have flaws! Here are the celebs who have suffered from acne in the past, along with how they coped when banishing the blemishes.

Miley Cyrus

Growing up onscreen, Miley had to live those awkward teen years in the spotlight. That alone is pretty impressive, but she also did it whilst dealing with grim skin problems. She said: “I used to have really bad breakouts. My mom took me in to see a doctor and we sorted that out. But it made me really insecure.”

However, according to AceShowbiz Miley is tough on what she eats and drinks now to avoid outbreaks. She said she eats: “all organic products”, and that: “getting all those chemicals out of your body is the best thing.”

Victoria Beckham

Victoria Beckham has always had pretty bad skin problems, and apparently was once nicknamed ‘Spotty Spice’ (sad face). However, she couldn’t look MORE flawless today, and apparently it’s all thanks to her legendary dermatologist Dr Lancer (who also treats Kim Kardashian, just FYI). Victoria told Elle magazine: “I swear by Dr Lancer products. He’s a dermatologist that I met in Los Angeles. I started going to him for oxygen facials, and I haven’t looked back.

“I don’t really use products other than his. I keep it quite simple with a really good polish, then an exfoliating cleanse, then I use a nourish cream, which is a really beautiful moisturiser. “

Britney Spears

Britney’s skin now looks like a glowing angels, but a few years ago she went through a rough patch and her skin suffered from it. ​According to Hollywoodlife, Britney ditched the acne by using laser resurfacing with a dermatologist, a procedure that clears away bad skin cells and prevents an outbreak. Though it’s meant to be pretty pricey, these dermatologists definitely seem to know what they’re doing.

Pixie Lott

Poor old Pixie has had a rough time with acne. Apparently it was particularly bad when she started out, but she has found a way to control it. She told Express online: “I usually find I get breakouts when I am really busy and don’t have much time to look after my skin properly.”

Cameron Diaz

In her book, The Body Book, Cameron doesn’t hold back from admitting exactly what the problem was with her skin. She said: “I did everything I could think of to make it go away… It was awkward and embarrassing and frustrating, and I always felt really bad about myself. “

However, she soon realised that it was probably her diet that was causing the problem. She said after she stopped eating fast food every: “a funny thing happened…my skin began to clear up! My acne wasn’t totally gone, but it was significantly better. Looking back, I realise that I hadn’t needed those prescription drugs, those vials of potions and creams…I hadn’t needed to be angry at my skin or feel bad about myself. I had just needed to LISTEN TO MY BODY.”

Kate Moss

Kate Moss turns to oil as her to-go skin product, and told Glamour: “I love using oils at night, they make you feel like your skin has been restored; oils are just so nourishing for the skin.”

Rihanna

Rihanna has admitted that even she has her off days with pimples, and we love her for it. Speaking to Star magazine, she said: “I have an ugly day every month; pimples on my face, I’m fat and in a bad mood. It’s more like an ugly week.”

ONE OF US, ONE OF US.

Eva Longoria

Eva might have her bad skin days, so she knows the importance of finding a way to beat the blemishes to have healthy skin. According to the Desperate Housewives actor, it’s all about the moisturiser. In an interview with Hello! magazine she said: “Moisturising. Because I fly so much, hydration is important. When you have good skin, everything else kind of falls into place. Also, I use blush with shimmer in it. That way, your skin glows and people notice it.”

Holly Willoughby

Holly’s had her break ups, but she is still absolutely flawless! Much like Cameron, she sees a difference when she is healthier and claims water is the best thing for her skin. She told Marie Claire: “I do drink a lot of water and when I do I notice a huge difference in my skin.”

Amanda Seyfried

Forget healthy food or water, Amanda is ALL about the products to sort out her skin! Speaking to Allure.com, she said: “Every month I tended to get pimples in the centre of my face. I always needed that concealer stick to cover them up. But since I’ve been using the Clé de Peau skin care, I have such clear skin, it’s amazing. “

How do we see them in

Keira Knightley

Who would have thought that this beautiful and smart girl could be blacklisted! And after giving birth, the rash worsened. The British actress herself admitted this in an interview with Australian Vogue. “I just know how to hide them well.” But judging by the photo, it’s not very good …

Beyoncé

What a surprise! The girl who for a long time was, for a moment, the face of the famous brand L’Oreal cosmetics actually has problems with her skin. See for yourself, her acne has nothing to do with the glowing skin that we see on advertising posters with her participation. That’s the power of Photoshop!

Cameron Diaz

In his book “The Book of the Body” Cameron frankly admits his constant problem – acne. And he writes that he actually has “terrible, terrible skin.” And even tells how he struggles with acne throughout his life. And this is very difficult, given that the actress is considered a sex symbol and you need to constantly keep the bar.

Emma Stone

One of the most beautiful young actresses in Hollywood today, but even she suffers from skin imperfections. And once she admitted that she uses special prescription cosmetics to soothe the skin during complications.

Lord

The first (and so far the only) New Zealand Grammy winner has not only a prestigious music award, but also acne on her face. True, the last fact, apparently, does not bother her much. At least she keeps posting her unretouched photos online.

Rihanna

Rihanna is one of the most famous singer-songwriters on the planet. She has the perfect body. And dance moves. And there is nothing to say about the voice! But the skin failed … Looking at her epidermis, one cannot fail to notice pronounced marks after acne. It is quite possible that this is a consequence of her busy schedule and rhythm of life, however …

Jessica Simpson

American singer, actress, designer, athlete, Komsomol member, beauty … Simpson achieved seven of her hits in the Billboard Top 40 , she is the owner of three gold and two multi-platinum studio albums. Over 20 million copies of her albums have been sold worldwide. Everything is cool, in general. And only acne on her face reminds that she is an ordinary person, just like all of us.

Victoria Beckham

It turns out that when she was Spice, everyone called Vicki spotted as a joke. Yes, you guessed right, it was because of her acne and scars after them. Since then, a lot of water has flowed under the bridge, and Beckham’s skin has changed a lot, it began to look better. But from time to time, “nodules” still appear on her face.

Britney Spears

Fans read with interest about her new work and turbulent personal life, but few people know that Britney has been struggling with chronic acne all her life. Her skin has improved a lot lately, and Britney shared with fans a secret that helped her clear her face. Turns out she’s had several laser resurfacings, body cleanses, and diet changes because it definitely affects how we look – “we are what we eat.”

Jessica Alba

BTW

To the delight of chocolate lovers, American scientists have proved that it is not chocolate that is to blame for acne. As well as other sweets, as well as fatty foods. Long-term studies have shown that refined carbohydrates provoke the appearance of pustules and red nodules. In large volumes they contain bread and instant cereals.

Natalia GRIDASOVA, endocrinologist:

– The appearance of pimples on various parts of the body can really be a kind of projection of problems with internal organs.
