We comment on the "perfect, flawless, poreless" skin shown by famous influencers and celebrities, who deny their use of photoshop, filters, and plastic surgery. Sophie gets real about the steps she took to clear her skin, such as going to doctors, selecting specific skincare brands to use, and drinking more water. How do you stop feeling like everyone is judging your skin? How can you increase your confidence with acne? Stay tuned to find out!
