But then I went to Japan with the guys, I started to fall in love with makeup, and about two years later, my skin went nuts … I started to have random breakouts, and it made me realize that my body was telling me something.Having acne made me ask questions, so I have a lot of [natural skincare] knowledge now that I wouldn’t have otherwise. Some days, I’m actually thankful for the fact that I’ve had trouble with my skin. Just not every day.In a playful post shared to her Instagram Story this week, the “Running Out of Time” singer shared a photo of herself wearing a robe and thick face mask.”[I don’t know] I’m starting to think adult acne gives me that certain [je ne sais quoi] I was lacking all along,” Williams jokingly wrote in a text overlay.@yelyahwilliams via Instagram@yelyahwilliams via Instagramloading…Hayley Williams’ Adult Acne SolutionIn the next slide, the musician revealed her expensive yet (according to her) effective acne secret weapon: a luxury $110 face treatment mask.”This is the mask.
