I have really bad acne, I always cover it up all the way so there is no redness peeking through. I'm sick of very a lot of makeup but I'm scared to go to school with my acne face because I know people will make fun of me and I know people will judge me, so if any of you have acne, please tell me how you deal/dealt with going out into public bare faced. I could really use the support :)

I remember when I was breaking out pretty bad I did the same thing as you. I just washed my face is the morning and curled my lashes and but on lip balm and left. I honestly just told myself I will be fine, every teen goes though acne

Honesty, I don't think anyone will say anything
I have severe acne and one day I went to school without makeup because I was sick and not a single person said anything

I personally feel that you shouldn't be worried about what people will say it think about you not wearing makeup. I know it can be nerve wrecking cause people do tend to stare, but I think once you start not wearing makeup to school you will feel way more comfortable. Also, not covering your acne will most likely benefit your skin.

People really didn't say anything aha. It was just normal. I think you'll be fine :)

Pshh... There is a LOT of people who have acne and works. I wouldnt even worry too much about that because people isnt worrying about that. I had acne on my face and went through the whole couple months with acne.

I don't have acne but I do have a lot of freckles people bullied me about, I stopped wearing it and one of my closest friends said "oh, you do need makeup" but she meant it because I didnt look as awake as I do with makeup on, not because I look horrible lol. People really don't say anything, you'll more then likely get compliments apposed to negative remarks :) I know people were quite surprised when I stopped wearing it but they still preferred without.

Seriously you forgot that your not wearing makeup as the day goes on. Just don't overthink it or stress about it. People can only hurt your feelings if you allow them too. Stay confident and love who you are!

I only have one thing to say:

How cares?

Seriously, if they make fun of you then they are just some dumb m********************. But seriously thought, you go to school for yourslelf. You go to school for your education, your future. You don't go to school to please others. I mean, maybe it is just me, but I think that looking pretty for school (other than picture day of coarse ;) ) is not that important. I don't think that kids will make fun of you. At least, no one makes fun of acne at my school. Acne is not your fault. You are a teenager.

So my advice: scr*w the rest. ;)

Yeah it does not matter if you do not wear make up especially in school. Just make sure that you have your acne treatment and care so that it will not leave scars. Do not touch your skin with dirty hands but if possible you can bring facial wipes with natural ingredients suitable for all skin types.

I have pretty mild acne also, and the way I see it, is that if someone judges me with how I look, then they are obviously not worth my time anyway and being their friend is not worth it. Just be you who cares what other people think??!! Be you!
