Keke Palmer may have found the holy grail for clear skin.
The 29-year-old Nope star has always been open about her battle with adult acne. Last year, she posted a video on Instagram lamenting the lack of a cure, but that struggle may have come to an end – at least for now.
Earlier this month, Palmer uploaded another video to her page where she excitedly declares her skin problems over.
“I FOUND THE CURE TO ACNE!” the text overlay says, as she speaks about what finally cleared up her complexion.
“I know you can't see right now because I got a face full of makeup on,” she says. “But…I want you to see that everything right here is extremely flat.” She then points to her cheeks.
Next, she lets us in on the secret: pregnancy.
“I’m here to let y’all know I found the secret to clearing up my acne and guess what it is?” she says. “You need to get knocked up. Period. Point blank.”
Palmer, who is currently expecting her first child with boyfriend Darius Jackson, declares that “the baby has cleared my skin up” and then gets increasingly excited as she explains that her complexion has “never laid flat like this.”
Towards the end of her video, she jokes, “Call me Keke Wyatt ‘cause I’m about to be pregnant for the rest of my life,” referring to the R&B singer who is mom to 11 children.
Palmer announced her pregnancy while hosting Saturday Night Live in December last year. During her opening monologue, she spoke about rumors saying she was pregnant, and proceeded to unbutton her coat to reveal that she was! Watch it above.
Back in August, the Akeelah and the Bee actress posted a hilarious video on Instagram where she addressed her adult acne problems.
She began her vid by saying that while she thought plastic surgeons were amazing because they could give you a boob job, liposuction, a tummy tuck, etc., she was baffled that they couldn’t find a cure for adult acne.
Well, it seems Palmer has finally found the “cure” she’s looking for, albeit a temporary one. We’re not sure we would recommend it to everyone, though.
