- It’s hard to believe but yes there are lots of celebs revealing a common but serious school problem-being bullied
- There has been news that the gorgeous American actress Amanda Seyfried was bullied
- And what for? For having pale skin, she was called ugly
Being bullied
But it seems it turned out well for Amanda Seyfried. In contrast to being bullied especially in her school days, she was more attracted to becoming a model. And yes she began her career as a model at the age of 11 before switching to acting at the age of 15.
She said:
“[I modelled] just because it was glamorous and because people let me. I was made fun of at school for being pale and ugly.”
The 32-year-old actress has been open about her personal issues in the past as well. She spoke about her struggles with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and panic attacks. As she gets older, she believes she is growing “darker”.
To deal with her issues she told the i-newspaper:
“I’m always listening to podcasts and audio books, memoirs… it’s a bit of a meditation, but it also reminds me I’m part of a greater community.”
Accepting oneself
The actress accepts herself and tries to censor herself when being interviewed. She explained:
“I don’t edit myself as much as I should. But it makes me feel better at the end of the day that I’m not being fraudulent or withholding. It’s how you fight an image – you don’t let anybody put you in a box.”
Coping with OCD
Amanda has also shared that her OCD has become better since becoming a parent. She has a 15-month-old daughter with her husband Thomas Sadoski.
She revealed:
“I prepared myself before I had her by going back to CBT [Cognitive Behavioural Therapy], just to get myself in that frame of mind to notice when my OCD might be getting worse. But it turns out you’re way too busy with other things anyway.”
Amanda added:
“It definitely didn’t void it, but it’s absolutely gotten quieter. You have less time to worry, or to focus or obsess about things you maybe used to, and it’s so grounding. It’s real. They depend on you completely now.”
What skincare does Amanda Seyfried use?
Scarlett has a natural beauty including her gorgeous green eyes and porcelain skin. Moreover, the Oscar-nominated actress glammed up her skin by using minimal quality products that are clearly effective in taking care of her skin.
Recently, she shared with Glamour the secrets of her glowing skin. She is loyal to Lancome’s Clarifique Dual Face Essence. She said,
“I love the smell, the texture, and the way it feels on my skin,”
Similarly, she uses Toute Nuit Wrinkle Patch for her “wrinkles, frown lines, and crow’s feet.”She shared,
“It’s just surgical tape in the shape of a triangle to keep (the wrinkle) relaxed.”
Sunscreen is one of the most popular skincare products to maintain beautiful skin. She uses Babo Botanicals zinc oxide for her day-to-day sunscreen. Furthermore, she is a minimalist when it comes to makeup. Besides being the ambassador for Lancome, she does love their Hypnose mascara.
