National Acne Positivity Day is observed worldwide every September 1. Established in 2020 by La Roche-Posay, a skincare brand specializing in products for sensitive and acne-prone skin, the day aims to highlight the commonality of acne, combat the associated stigma, and empower individuals affected by this skin condition. Acne, which affects over half a billion people globally, is often linked to adolescence but can persist into adulthood, impacting self-esteem and mental health. On this day, individuals are encouraged to share their photos and stories on social media to promote self-acceptance and normalize discussions around acne. The observance emphasizes that while treating acne is important, people with the condition deserve respect and acceptance regardless of their skin's appearance. National Acne Positivity Day serves as a reminder to boost confidence and foster a positive attitude towards one's skin.
