There is nothing more gratifying than learning how the stars suffer, just like us. Let’s be honest about it, it feels good to know that they’re still just humans, with embarrassing skin problems that we can relate to. The only difference is that they might have a few more bucks to throw at their problems. Here are a few celeb-solutions to skin problems that anyone can have.

This Hollywood sex-symbol used to suffer like the rest of us, with terribly problematic skin. Rumor has it, this star invests quite a bit of money on cosmetic procedures to look flawless.
