It's disheartening that in so many such situations, it just seems to become a vicious cycle--girl wears make-up to cover up blemishes. Girl gets used to her make-up look, and continues to more-regularly use larger amounts of make-up while potentially spending less time taking care of her skin. Girl becomes increasingly distraught by non-make-up look (which likely worsens due to decreased skin care and increased stress), thereby ramping up make-up use even more, and significantly intensifying her fear of being seen without make-up. Eventually, girl wears make-up during all non-sleeping hours, which pretty much precludes any sort of normal, proper skin care.
