BECCA ASK, from Woodbury, Minnesota, was born with Port Wine Stain and Blue Nevus birthmarks across her face. These really affected her confidence and in 6th grade this developed into an unhealthy relationship with makeup. Becca told Truly: "I had very low self esteem, very low confidence. I felt like I always had to be in makeup, I felt like somebody couldn't like me in my natural skin." Becca hid her skin every time she ventured out of the house and things were made worse for her when she experienced cruel comments. "People have told me there's no way that anybody would love me with a face like mine, I've been called ugly and hideous." However, over the past six years Becca has found a new confidence with the love and support of her partner Dalton. She now uses makeup as a form of artistic expression and has taken to social media to show the world what she can do. Today is a huge day for Becca, as she has bravely decided to go on a date without hiding her birthmark... But how will she feel when she arrives?
