Looking at Kelly's face you'd never think that she had acne. 

But for most of Kelly's teenage years and well into her 20s Kelly suffered from painful cystic acne. It's something she's finally (mostly) on top of now.

In today's episode, Kelly shares her story and we hear from the You Beauty village about the products and treatments that have worked for them!
