Social media is full of images of perfect beauty, but Hania Aamir is not interested in promoting false imagery. The star actress, fresh off her success on the hit series Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum, is open about flaws on her skin.
In an interview with Faridoon Shahryar, Hania talked about struggling with acne in 2019.
She said, “It’s easy to cover up blemishes on TV with makeup, cameras, and filters. However, I felt like I was living a lie by hiding my pimples. When you’re on screen, nobody finds out. But I started feeling like I was lying to the people who were following me.”
She often shares makeup-free photos with her 16.3 million Instagram followers. She realized the power of her influence and decided to be honest about her skin. “One day I took a picture of my skin and I posted it,” she said. “I decided that I would not stay sad if my skin broke out and neither would I let anyone else feel the same way about themselves.”
She also said, “I didn’t cover up skin marks while filming Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum. You’ll notice that if I had a mark on my face, it has not been covered up. I am stubborn about that.”
Hania wants girls to know that they don’t have to look perfect to work in showbiz. “That’s also why in most of my videos, I don’t wear makeup,” she said.
Hania’s attitude promotes self-confidence in a world obsessed with social media perfection.
