Think you can't wear foundation because of your acne-prone skin? Try bareMinerals Blemish Rescue, a foundation that's actually good for your skin.

2. When you think your concealer shade is flawless when you leave the house:

Oh, right — this is what my face looks like.

3. You've tried every treatment in the book, even prescriptions.

"Is this OK for my body? You know what, I don't even care if it helps my acne."

4. You'll never forgive your parents for passing on the bad-skin gene.

How could you do this to someone you claim to love?

5. You know all the kids at your school who have worse acne than you.

There's Drew and Marc and Chelsea....

6. Popping whiteheads is part of your morning routine.

Oddly satisfying tbh.

7. You might not have had acne in a while, but you can still see the scars.

Only the brave have battle scars.
