Lights, camera, acne!

Whether you’re a teenager who is noticing acne for the first time or an adult who anticipated permanently waving goodbye to it forever, you’re in good company. The careers of Cameron Diaz, P. Diddy, Jessica Simpson, Alicia Keyes, Mike Myers, and Vanessa Williams have thrived despite their continuing complexion problems with acne.



And think about some of those rugged faces from the silver screen. From the looks of it, Tommy Lee Jones, Laurence Fishburne, Bill Murray, Edward James Olmos, James Woods, and the great British actor and movie star Richard Burton (who married Elizabeth Taylor, considered to be one of the most beautiful women in the world) more than likely had pretty wicked acne when they were teenagers.

Of course, heavy makeup, favorable lighting, medications, and experienced dermatologists have also probably helped them. I won’t be able to supply your own personal makeup artist or a lighting technician to accompany you to school or work, but I do provide tons of recommendations on how to use acne-fighting medications and find a good dermatologist in this book.

You may not aspire to be a movie star. But the names I mention here are just a small number of the people who have achieved success in an area where looks count the most. Countless other people exist in all walks of life who went beyond their acne to become successes in their fields. And so can you.
