Pimples Are Officially Cool, and These Celebs and Influencers Prove It

The skin-positivity (or acne-acceptance) movement is growing thanks to shifting cultural values and acne-prone influencers speaking up.

Ingrid Nilsen On May 6(ish), beauty influencer Ingrid Nilsen woke up to a big, fat, juicy pimple. On May 7, she decided to 'gram it. "It hit me last night that this pimple is a physical manifestation of all the work I did last week," she reflected. "I pushed through nerves, anxiety and some of my biggest fears to strive for something I've always wanted to do. I'm proud of that and if this is my body's way of saying 'We did it, but MAN I'm tiiiiired!' then I'm proud of that, too. Our bodies are so complex. They work hard for us every day, whether we notice it or not, so try to be generous with yourself. Meet yourself where you are right now and sink into the gratitude of the breath you just took. That's your body telling you you're good enough...because you're alive." (Again, somewhere, Dr. Pimple Popper's fingers are itching.)
