hi

this is honestly the most natural 'natural makeup look' i've ever watched, you are so beautiful and as a girl who suffers from acne similar to yours due to hormonal imbalance, the words that you gave made me feel better. so, thank you and stay safe! x

"makeup is makeup and not skin" IS SO REFRESHING THANK YOU

This literally made me want to cry because I've been struggling SO MUCH with acne and it is so relieving to know other beautful girls are too. Thank you so frickin much for making this.

I just want to say thank you so much . I genuinely appreciate you being so open about your acne and normalising the fact that acne is normal and skin can be iffy at times and it's all a journey. This has really touched me and I'm just very grateful for you being so casual about this because skin is skin and everyone's skin and journey is different in multiple ways. So thank you for sharing some of your journey with us xx

Wow that concealer is such a good match for you!

You are so pretty. It was hard to even notice your acne cause I couldn't stop just seeing you, and how pretty you looked. As someone who is struggling with a lot of acne on my cheeks, I've learned to look past the acne and actually see the person.

I also have hormonal imbalace and i can totally feel your pain. Watching my hairless friends with clear skin has been really hard for me but this video helped me so much cause im really not the one. I just wanted to say that you are so brave and thank you for this video also you are gorgeous!

finding this kind of random video in youtube is like treasure hunting. this has got to be the most relatable and realistic natural make up look I've ever seen, it wasn't perfect and THATS the whole point, I enjoyed how genuine you are. Stay gorgeous!

Just randomly saw this on my homepage and I have to say, I'm really glad to see more relatable cases on the internet especially in the makeup industry. Mostly because we have the same case like I had zero issues with my skin two years ago and suddenly I just had an intense breakout last year which was caused by my hormones. I really love this video, thank you for being vulnerable with us. Our beauty isn't dependent on the condition of our skin. Love you!!!

Seeing pretty people with acne makes me feel better about mine, like I never think acne makes someone else less beautiful but I sure as hell don't feel like that about myself. You're gorgeous!

stop criticizing yourself every second! you're absolutely stunning!!!!💗💗💗💗💗

This is my skin rn I’ve been dealing with my acne marks since the pandemic happened glad to see a beauty blogger that aren’t scared to show that btw you’re so pretty love the confidence!!

this was genuinely so helpful. not entirely sure how to put into words how much better it makes me feel to see creators talking so openly about their struggles with acne. it makes me realise I'm not alone. thank you so much!

oh my god. first of all, thank you for being so vulnerable and open about acne. it’s so stigmatized these days and I cannot express how thankful i am for this video, plus, you’re absolutely gorgeous!!!

I'm having a hard time covering my acne marks and my cystic acne not only they are super visible because of their redness and size, but I can't also quite put a huge amount of concealer/foundation because it hurts/stings so bad especially when I'll remove them already when I'm going to bed. Thanks for this

Thank you so much for this! It's hard to show your acne on the internet, but going out of your way to normalize acne means so much to the people who are watching and going through the same thing. Hope to see more of your content!

This is honestly so brave, saying that it’s hard for you but you’re trying to help other ppl. Thank you sm

ur so pretty with or without makeup! 😍😍

So wise beyond your years! I’m 53 and still struggle with acne. It took me many years to learn to be accepting and loving of my self just the way I am. You are light years ahead of me. Thank you for being so open and vulnerable and being real so I can learn how to cover and reduce the look of scars and in my case age spots and sun damage. TFS

i've had acne most of my teen years and still have them during my adulthood along with post-acne marks ahk it can be such a pain but they're natural to have and you're so brave for putting this out !! much love to you michelle

So beautiful people wouldn’t even notice the imperfections girl you’re gorgeous 💕💕

I appreciate how you acknowledge and embrace what makeup can do for a person, while also recognizing it’s limits and that skin isn’t perfect ☺️ I like your balance!

Nearly cried because I related to the feeling of vulnerability you shared, and how honest this was. I experience the same type of acne cycles due to hormones/PCOS and it can really mess with self-esteem! Thank you for sharing and helping those w/ acne know we’re not alone

stop like actually your so pretty. i really appreciate u opening up to us about this because ive been struggling w acne for years and you've made me feel more confident and excited

you’re honestly one of the most beautiful people i’ve ever seen

Thank you. After a pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding and a miscarriage my hormones have been going crazy in the past couple years so lately I've been feeling down struggling with acne, this is the most natural look for someone who doesn't want to look overdone but also wants to cover darks spots and acne, I really appreciate this, thank you so so much

you’re sooo so beautiful before and after. I struggle with acne as well and I honestly do get insecure about it but at the end of the day it normal and seeing how beautiful you are with these scars helps me see myself that way

I am so proud of you, you are beautiful. I have had acne since I was 8, I'm 19 now, and I don't think I've left the house without makeup in 7 years. I want to be able to follow the trend of natural makeup but never felt like I could because of my acne. But this is one of the most natural "no makeup" looks I've watched and it really encouraged me as someone who really struggles with acne that I don't have to wear pounds of makeup to think I'm beautiful or even worthy of showing my face outside of the four walls of my room.

She’s pretty and talented?! 🤩

this is the first makeup video that did not make me feel that I am ugly. Thanks for this wholesome video.

as someone who went through an acne era back in junior highschool (my skin has improved but i don't get breakouts anymore. i still get one pimple from time to time), i really felt vulnerable & scared. i'm slowly learning to love my imperfections this made me feel like i'm not alone and comforted me in some way. thank you for making this video 💗

Wow I don’t even have acne and I’m watching this because you’re so sweet and kind. Thank you for spreading the positivity 💜🤍

Thank you so much, I have really bad acne all over my face and this has helped me so much. This is honestly one of the most realistic makeup tutorials out there and I want you to know you are so beautiful no matter what, acne or not.

girl you are so beautiful 🥺 i’m definitely trying out that concealer!!

You said this would be worth it if it helps one person, well, it helped me. so thank you for being vulnerable. acne sucks, been having the worst breakout in over a year. But this video made me realize im still beautiful regardless.

that concealer blended perfectly omg

I also have hormonal acne and I get told all the time to just wash my face or get a routine when it’s obviously not that EASY!! I’m just glad that I can relate to somebody because I’ve been trying to learn how to do a natural makeup look so you’ve been so helpful. Thank you

omg thank you so much I’m a guy who struggles a lot with acne and I was looking for a natural makeup like this by so long🥺 tysm you made me feel so much better

You have the kindest eyes I’ve ever seen in my entire lifetime

You’re beautiful, make up or no make up. I love how you do your acne makeup. As someone with PCOS who experiences the same acne flare ups (along with a host of other problems), I feel you. When I was younger, I used to spend hours beating my face with layers upon layers of make up. Nowadays, I go for a more natural look like yours because being a momma of 3, I don’t usually have the luxury of time to spend hours on my face. Surprisingly, I feel more comfortable now with my skin. And you’re right, acceptance from the people who truly matter, works wonders in learning to love the skin you’re in.

girllll you look so gorgeous 🥺😭 i loveee your browsss

Loved this! I used to have breakouts just like this. As I got older the cheeks have calmed down a ton and now I just get flare ups in my chin area. Concealers don’t sit well on my skin and if anyone has that same problem I STRONGLY recommend the Milk Makeup foundation stick. I use it as concealer and it’s amazing because the creamy consistency sits really well on textured skin!

I LOVE this video!! I’m so glad that I found it, I struggle with a lot acne and acne scars on my cheek and I always struggle with trying to do natural makeup as I’m constantly like i need a full face to hide my acne and scars. Definitely going to try this out!! Your gorgeous btw 😍

as someone who is currently having doubts about wearing makeup because of acne, this means a lot🥺 thank you so much!

That Fenty concealer really does a good job. I've never struggled with a lot of breakouts, but I have siblings who did, and it is really tough. You have a lovely, sweet way about you and are very beautiful.

you're beautiful but also kind, the fact that you did this in the hopes of even helping one person in the same situation as you ❤❤❤

Omg i related with EVERY WORD you said since the beginning!!!! I have crazy hormones and my breakouts are super unpredictable too. I be living my best life with clear skin and suddenly BAM im humbled by acne - and this happens again and again. Thank you for reminding me IM NOT ALONE in this battle against acne ❤️😣

I’ve literally spent the last hour on KZfaq looking for a way to do makeup with acne. Thank you for being that one video.

You are gorgeous, with and without makeup! Like a Disney princess!

This is the most natural makeup video I have ever watched. Also struggling with acne issue rn but watching you made me feel really really good to myself 🥰 Keep being this positive girl!! Lovee

Girl~ Your eyebrows are everything🤧

I understand how vulnerable it feels to show people your skin when it's not at its clearest! I appreciate you doing so, because a lot of makeup tutorials are done on people with flawless skin and it's hard to know what will work on me ♥️

one thing that really helped me with growing comfortable with my acne was realizing how little I focused on it when I saw others with acne. Often I didn't even notice it and after/if I did I realized I didn't think any less of the person. I'm not sure if that mindset shift will help for everyone but just in case it might I wanted to share.

You’re genuinely so beautiful, thanks for the tutorial! I have to take medication that causes hormonal imbalances and acne, this is really helpful!

girl i was just staring at u in awe the whole time because you are SO STUNNING

You are stunning !!! Niacinamide saved my skin but it did take a while to lighten my scars so keep pushing!

FINALLY A MAKEUP TUTORIAL THAT I CAN RELATE TO. i always concious about my thick monobrows and acnes, but this video really make me love my self again. thank you!

Makeup is makeup , not skin 🥲 that gave me a bit of relief 💀❤️

Honestly you can just call it a natural makeup routine, your acne doesn’t define anything about you, you are so beautiful as you are! Love the makeup look!

I love ur self-esteem talks, I relate so deeply to you talking about your insecurities and you are SO spot on about loving yourself always!!

You’re so pretty🥺 beautiful brows and profile !!!

I've recently been diagnosed with PCOS and is currently struggling with hormonal acne. You're really lovely btw.

girl, i am in love with your brows, so beautiful!

followed this tutorial this morning and you’ve completely changed my life!! thank you so much for sharing this with the world!! 😭♥️✨

You are truly stunning!!! Thank you for being vulnerable and showing us what real skin can look like. I struggle with hormonal acne too and so hard to find makeup tutorials that show skin that looks like mine. Thank you thank you thank you!

your video just helped me, am going through the same thing and I feel like it just me. and people dont understand how my skin can be clear one day and not clear the other. Thanks for doing this makeup video.

I love that you are such a real person on the internet and decided to be vulnerable to help other people. It really warms my heart. 🥺💗

My hormones are okay just LH is high. I do have regular periods. I get about 3 to 4 painful cystic pimples each month on my cheeks a week before my cycle. They take quite some time to flatten out. It's been going on for 9 months so my face has accumulated pink / red hyperpigmentation marks. I have never dealt with acne before until now at 21. You are so brave and I thank you for letting us all who struggle with this know that we aren't alone :)

Bro your literally beautiful like urban outfitters would use you as a their model.

Girl you are so beautiful and lovely. I’m in my 30s and felt comforted by your video, thanks for the tips love!❤️❤️❤️

your side profile is everything girl😭😭

I had a major break out almost a year ago and it really hasn't stop until now. Before the break out, I had pimples but only a few and it goes away pretty easily so I was very frustrated and I still am. I don't what happened, I just thought that it's a necessary phase of my life since I just turned 18. Anyways, I just wanna say that to everyone who's experiencing the same thing that YOU'RE STILL BEAUTIFUL! I've been coping up by taking care of myself more and doing my makeup even if I'm not going anywhere lol. It's just a PHASE, it will come and go! Hoping for better days for all of you! ❤️❤️❤️

You look so pretty with or without makeup😍

I just want to thank you for being so courageous to put this video up even tho you didn’t want to! It really helped me a lot!!! Also you are flawless!!!!

you have such a sweet soul and are literally so adorable!! I suffered from acne like yours when I was younger and to see you be on camera fearlessly and confidently, it is so refreshing and just amazing. you got a new subscriber girly and can't wait for more videos from you

Thank you for posting this because sometimes it feels like nobody has skin like mine 😞

Normalizing acne is so important. THANK YOU!

Thank youu! You made me cry and you made me realized that acne is normal and I shouldn't mind other people who don't understand. I am now more confident and I just accepted my flaws. *sending loveee*

That’s a very pretty natural makeup,but I would like to share as an acne prone skin gal myself i used countless concealers high end and drugstore !most of them clogged my pores and caused more breakouts that i was done and stopped using them,I’m currently using nars soft matte complete concealer just to cover my breakouts and acne marks and so far I’m impressed it covers well and didn’t clog my pores and caused new pimples ,i heard from Dr vinita who is a dermatologist that fenty skin make up has talc and many other ingredients not suitable for acne prone skin I hope that fenty concealer doesn’t cause your skin to breakout

you did help me. i feel so insecure with my skin i cried looking to the mirror... and seeing you being vunerable and still incredibly beautiful made me feel a lot better. thank you.

hi michelle, first of all, YOU'RE SO PRETTY OMG & secondly, i want to acknowledge & thank you for your vulnerability. I've had acne since I was 12, which then turned into cystic acne when I was 14/15. After seeing an aesthetician, it cleared up at 16, but now going into my freshman year of college, it's come back w a vengeance:(( Watching these kinds of videos help me remember that acne is normal and not a defining characteristic. btw your comment about people seeing people w acne as unhygenic really hit home, like all of my friends only wash their faces in the shower & use a body lotion as a facial moisturizer, meanwhile i have to do my 5 step skincare routine twice a day just for my skin to not care😭

One of the best natural makeup videos I've seen for acne-prone/troubled skin! I have pretty clear skin but I'm oily and acne-prone so during my time of the month or if my skin is congested it can break out a little and leave scaring so this video was really helpful you're so naturally pretty to great video

Omg! I loved this! I also suffer from high levels of testosterone and can totally relate. I'm realy happy that I have come to embracing the aftermath pigmentation and dark scaring since I have masterd how to cover them up. Now I'm at a place where I am more comfortable to go out bareface and it has come to the point that i just don’t really care if people stare or ask about it.

Looking gorgeous with or without those scars. 💚

hi! you should try spraying a beauty blender with setting spray and then pat it all over ur face, it makes it look so pretty and sets ur makeup rlly nicely! also tysm for talking to us about ur acne and sharing a part of ur journey, i’ve started getting acne in the summer and it used to bring me down so much until i realized that it’s normal, and when i put some makeup on to cover it and i always see texture i remind myself that makeup isn’t a mask it’s just sitting on ur skin so it’s not supposed to look perfect. (i may have worded that weird lol) but ever since i told myself that, i’ve been so much happier. ilysm for this video

oh my god i needed this! i've been dealing with acne & acne scars, and i was anxious because school starting soon, i didnt want anybody to see me like that. This video was a confident booster, thank you for saying these kind words, and thank you for showing us you can still glow even you have acne!! 💜

I feel you so much on this. I've suffered from cystic & hormonal acne all my life. I have scars, discolorations, hyperpigmataion, combo skin, so oily spots & dry flaky spots. I really appreciate your vulnerability, it's so hard to cover & harder not to feel or look cakey. You look beautiful, thank you! I hope you keep doing more videos like these for the "real" ppl out there ❤️

Thank you, I've been struggling with my acne and I don't like foundation you help me so much, I appreciate you thanks again💯👍❤

gurl you're already pretty!

you are so beautiful with and without makeup!!!

Girl, your brows are literally so perfect! i recommend using a clear brow gel to give it a bit of a lift! its a beautiful tutorial btw💛

pretty before and after!!

that's what natural really looks like huhu... i needed this vid badly, and i'm so happy that it was on top of my video recos uwu

Thank you for sharing this, fellow Michelle😊 I've dealt with acne for a loong time now and it's always so hard finding natural looks for our skin. I'm actually super comfortable being barefaced, but whenever I want to put makeup on, it feels like I'm doing something wrong for not covering all of it or not going for heavy foundation, and it really worns out my confidence, so really thanks! And you're gorgeous!

Thank you for this!! You are so pretty with and without makeup ❤

I was diagnosed with pcos a couple years ago and boy, hormone imbalances are such a pain and really do mess with your self image. Thank you for opening up about your experience -- feeling less alone after watching this/reading the comment section xx

i’ve also had this problem for a while, i recently got diagnosed with PCOS and im getting treated for it, but this tutorial will help w how to cover it up w/o caking my face w makeup! tysm!

you are still pretty even without concealer

1:21 the amount of times I have seen people, mostly guys, say “I don’t get why you just don’t wash your face like all they have to do is wash their face. It’s so gross. They’re so unhygienic.” It irks me so much. It’s not my fault that I have acne. I have invested thousands of dollars in products methods and estheticians to help my skin.
