Ashley Benson’s zit-fighting is super easy, and 100% FREE to recreate

ICYMI, we not only love Ashley Benson for her role on Pretty Little Liars, but also for being so open about everyday issues, like acne, IRL. We just discovered that Ashley Benson’s zit-fighting is super easy, according to Allure, and 100 percent FREE to recreate. After all, do any of us have perfect skin all the time? Doubtful, right?!

As we said, Benson often speaks openly about her skin issues.

She uses Differin for acne and is also the brand’s new face, so to speak.

"Acne is obviously an unfortunate thing to deal with, and it makes you feel like everyone is staring at you," Benson told Allure.

Yep, we agree.

"…But at the end of the day, there’s nothing you can do, and that’s why I’ve been so open about it to my fans, Benson said. “Everyone gets acne and it is what it is."

True that, right?! Whether we’ve always had breakouts or tend to get them when we’re stressed, they’re ~never~ fun. But — ding ding ding! — aside from Benson being a fan of Differin, she has a simple solution that we can all use — that’s also FREE.

"If I [do get a stress breakout], I put a super-super-hot towel on [the pimple]," Benson said. "If it’s inflamed, it’ll go down — at least for me — and the towel also clears the redness away. On set, they always steam our faces. If they have to, they’ll just [pop it], but if not, they do that and put a little bit of oil on it so it doesn’t dry out. I also don't touch it."

Okay, did we mention that we love her — especially for her openness?! Brb, as we go heat up a towel…
