Naya Rivera
Ah, we have yet another Proactiv spokesperson in our next celeb, "Glee" graduate Naya Rivera. "I had really bad skin for awhile earlier this year," Rivera told People while on the set of a Proactiv photo shoot. "It sort of just came out of nowhere. It was like adult acne, and I was like, I've had great skin my entire life. How am I dealing with this now at 24?"

Rivera continued that she was embarrassed to go to work and be on camera every day when she had pimples erupting all over her face. That being said, Rivera noted that her "Glee"costars were super-supportive. "I would always go around and talk about it," she told People. "It was a point of insecurity for me. But I'm glad I got it fixed, I'll say that."

Brie Larson
Continuing with the trend of posting candid (filter-free) Instagram pics, "Room" star Brie Larson had her own honest moment on social media. She posted a photo of herself on the red carpet, writing, "When you're stressing/obsessing over a zit so you put on too much zit cream before bed and wake up to giant dry spot but you gotta get your photo taken anyway." She even drew a giant red heart and an arrow pointing to her chin, where the spot was. Way to draw attention to it!

Bella Thorne
In a video for Neutrogena, brand spokesperson Bella Thorne shared her skin issues with viewers. "I remember the first time I started to get acne, I started to see all these little bumps under my skin, and it just made me feel very insecure every time someone would look to me or talk to me," she said.

According to Teen Vogue, Thorne has also been vocal about her breakouts on SnapChat. In one snap, Thorne wrote, "My face is breaking out ughhhh," following that with a closeup of her bumps. In another snap, Thorne showed off acne on her neck, writing, "Pimple so big it looks like a hickey."
