Lorde has to be one of the most authentic, genuine human beings we have ever seen rise to fame, so when we see her open up about her skin struggles, it’s a huge sigh of relief.
Yes, celebrities get acne too!
At 21, she may be killing it in the music industry, but just like most girls that age, she gets breakouts and she too has to deal with those consequences.
In a series of videos posted to her Instagram story this week, she opened up to her fans. “For real though, acne sucks,” she began.
“You know what also sucks? When you’ve had acne for years and years and years. Tried all the drugs, done all the things, and people are still like, ‘You know what worked for me? Moisturising.'”
She has tried a lot of things throughout the years. She explained, “Make a mask out of honey, Greek yoghurt, and avocado. All you need to do is buy apricot scrub. Coconut oil, the secret is coconut oil.”
She described what is probably the worst part about it too. “The very worst one, of course, is when people think you’re just dirty. ‘Do you wash your face? It’s like, yes I was my face, I’m just genetically cursed.”
Too true.
“For anyone out there who’s got actual bad skin – I feel your pain. We’ll get there, we will. I promise.”
