SOCIAL media can be a particularly harsh place – and no one knows it better than Anja Lary.
This skincare positivity influencer, Anja, is all about empowering others and reminding that social media is fake.
But posting make-up free photos does come with one downside – mean online trolls, who can sometimes make it difficult for digital creators to be more candid.
Going against the trend of sharing only heavily edited images, the vegan and cruelty-free skincare fan often uploads photos of herself wearing little to no make-up.
Unlike most people on social media, the rising Instagram star is very open about having a skin condition – rosacea – and she doesn’t try to cover it.

But in response to one of her videos, an online troll commented: ”that’s why you Go swimming for the first date.”
In another post, Anja shared what another person had written: ”Why tf you look like this, i dont even look like this and a clean my Face just with water.”
”Drink water and it will be all good,” thought one who was convinced that you can easily get rid of this skin condition by simply increasing your water intake.

”To all my girls with skin concerns -> don‘t let anyone tell you 
like this! You‘re 
,” responded Anja.
”A lot of people assume that people with skin conditions are unhygienic.
”For example, my skin condition called rosacea is connected to my gut.
”It depends on what I eat if it gets better or worse.
”Skincare helps but is not always the ultimate fix.
”And yes, I wash my face every day, drink water and apply creams.
Anja reminded: ”So the next time you see someone with „bad“ skin please be kind to them.”
Fellow supporters were just as puzzled, with one viewer writing: ”Could you imagine somebody judging you for something totally out of your control like the body you’re born with??”
”People are so f*****g rude,” another agreed.
”people’s ignorance is a real threat.
”they are convinced they know everything about anybody, when it’s clearly not the case.”
