Emma Chamberlain's Journey With Acne

In an interview with POPSUGAR, Chamberlain talked about her tumultuous journey with acne. Having come out on the other side of it, she said, "I fully understand that no matter what anybody says it's really, really tough and there's nothing that anybody can say or do to make it any easier. It would be, in a way, punching my younger self in the face to be like, 'Oh, having acne, well, it goes away one day. You'll be OK.' No, it's one of the most difficult things I've personally ever dealt with self-esteem-wise and just in general, in life."

She added: "That journey was so important because it taught me how to feel comfortable within myself with good or bad skin. Once you either grow out of your acne or you find a way to remedy it, no matter what your journey ends up being, there's something so empowering about coming out the other side. People who have dealt with acne can f*cking do anything."
