Acne is painful. Mentally, physically and emotionally. Not being able to brush past my face without wincing in pain, feeling like I couldn’t go out to the shops without thick layers of makeup and feeling worthless 24/7 really took its toll on me. But I want you to know you are not on your own if you are feeling this way today. I see you, and I know exactly how you feel. You are worthy. You are beautiful. You are more than your acne.
