Photo: How I Cured My Horrible Acne - Mbong Amata

With a look at beautiful Mbong Amata, you would think that she has always had a smooth and spotless face but you won’t believe that she has battled with Acne for years at a time in her life.


Popular opinion will have you believe that Mbong has always had a clean and smooth face but according to her she was rough at one point in her life.

This is what the young lady had to say:
The road to success, they say it’s a slow and painful one and I am a living testimony to that saying… I wake up everyday feeling inspired by life itself before anything else. So I decided to share a never before seen or heard story of my life via pictures hoping to inspire one person at the very least.

Amata now and then
The photo you see is me almost 2years ago and people who really know me will understand my struggle with acne for the most part of my adult life. At this point, I was in a very dark place. Depression kicked.
Everything that seemed bad was happening to me all at the same time. I felt I was cursed! I spent thousands of dollars trying to clear my skin. Yep! U heard right. In fact there was nothing I didn’t try out… Darlings, my story is different today because God rewrote the story of life not just my skin. Lol! I found the joy and benefits of workout and clean eats!.
I made sure I kept a photo diary of my daily struggle so one day when I feel comfortable enough to talk about it; I would have photographic evidence to at least share with you my friends. Believe me when I tell you that it was bad. These babies looked very juicy and well fed! Lol! The more I tried the more I was attacked. Sometimes, we really have to let go and Let God. Just do your part and let him zoom in on you. Today, when I get compliments like “oh wow! You’ve got great skin” I simply laugh, say thanks and then say a bigger THANK YOU to God! Now I can conveniently and comfortably go about my dailies without makeup.. Because I mean I think I’ve earned the right to say I make makeup look good and not the other way around. Morale of the story:
