Even stars don't always look perfect


Rx for Brown Skin for African American skin care

 


It's award season, and stars such as Viola Davis and Octavia Spencer from The Help have been stepping out in fabulous gowns and showing off flawless African American skin. Have you ever wondered how celebrities always seem to have perfect skin? Well, according to celebrity dermatologist  Karyn Grossman, stars run into skin problems just like the rest of us. She recently shared some common skin issues that even celebs can't hide from.


First, Grossman said that some stars, just like the rest of us, forget that it's necessary to wear SPF whenever you're going out.


"While starlets regularly protect and work on their faces, skin-baring dresses often reveal neglected sun-damaged chests, backs and arms," said Grossman, quoted by the news source.


Next, the dermatologist said that many celebrities struggle to get a natural look, and often end up looking overly "Hollywood." She said that many stars are afraid of being immortalized on a "before" and "after" page in the tabloids, so it's important to remember that too much makeup and too many skin care procedures can leave anyone looking cheesy.


Marie Claire magazine also recommends making sure you don't overdo it on makeup, as many stars have done. For example, if you are going to wear a bright red lipstick, don't do that and a smoky eye, you should pick one.
