Hey hows everyone? This is my first time being in this acne forum. Im lildreamer..Im 17 years old and I have mild/severe acne! Im from glendale, california. I've always been a person that is self-concious on my appearence. Well I wear make up everyday whenever I go out. I always have to have make up on. The make up I use is really good and covers all redness. Its m.A.C make up! People say that they dont notice but I know once I take off my make up its really, really bad. I dont have color in my face and im all red. When I put my make up on and I look at the side of my face that doesnt have any on..I get so scared and so shocked at the huge difference. The color of my bare face scares me..I feel like crying. It looks like some one beat the hell out off my face!! Once I put my make up on I feel better, but the fact that I know what it looks like underneath it..I hate! My friends tell me dont put make up on..It makes it worst...The tell me to let my pores breath. I know I should but I just cant do it. I cant go to school w/o make up. Its too embarrassing! Eveyday I wash my face and take off my make up and put creames on my face. Somrtimes it works and sometimes it doesnt or just gets worse. I dont know what to do. Why is my skin color like this? I dont want to have little scares when I get older!!!!!!You know like poen pores that you can spot!! Pleeze some advice!!! I will deeply appreiciat it! Much love!!
