Starlie Smith Further proof that pimples are, in fact, chic: In February 2017, model Starlie Smith — sister to Lucky Blue, Daisy Clementine and Pyper America and lead singer of family band The Atomics — walked the D&G runway with visible acne (masked by layers of foundation and concealer, but still). The following month, she posted a photo of her (seemingly) makeup-free face on Instagram with the caption: "Also, WHO CARES IF YOU HAVE ACNE YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL (A love note to myself & others struggling) #honest." The post prompted a ton (around 300) of positive responses and got close to 11,000 likes.
