When you scroll through your socials, what do you see? Most of the time it’s flawless skin and unrealistic body shapes, but have you started to notice a difference?
Some of our favourite beauty bloggers are putting an end to pore less selfies and face tuned jawlines and replacing them with honest, unretouched pics that put acne on display in all its unpredictable glory.
Skin positivity has only been around for a minute, but in a time when most of us don’t have the energy to care about getting “perfect” filtered-beyond-recognition skin, the movement is blowing up.
Behind all of the unfiltered photos and videos is a huge community that controls the skin positivity movement. Influencers hype each other up in the comments section, swap stories and experiences with followers, and even take each other through the heavy emotions that come with having skin conditions. It’s basically a virtual support system.
Of course, this doesn’t mean everyone’s pretending to love breakouts, it’s more about recognising how common and normal pimples really are. Here are a few #skinpositivity #skinfluencers who are currently all over the gram!
