Model and TV personality Kendall Jenner has joined the latest viral trend, the “10 Year Challenge”, in which people post a present day photograph of themselves alongside one from ten years ago, to show they have changed.
"I was 13 and ran home crying every day because people would stare at my skin" the model explained in the caption.
To illustrate the difference between then and now, she also posted a recent photo, captioned "Yesterday on film zero makeup."
A number of social media users, however, apparently weren’t pleased with the message Jenner tried to convey.
Does Kendall Jenner not understand everyone gets acne when going thorough puberty??? pic.twitter.com/tNx42Ma1t3

I have got to say Kendall Jenner has to be the biggest insult ever to girls struggling with acne. Stop flaunting your skin that you paid thousands of dollars for. Some of us don’t have the privilege you do, we have to try drug store products that still don’t work.

@KendallJenner you’re SO brave for sharing your crippling struggle with something LITERALLY every teen on earth goes through. the courage it must take to share your acne journey and make millions of dollars while doing it is truly inspiring! pic.twitter.com/bK6OdbQarM
