DANVILLE, Calif., Feb. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Face Reality®, the award-winning, leading authority and #1 Professional Acne Brand, is partnering with TV Personality and Creative Director, Amanda Batula to shed light on the impact acne can have on self-esteem and mental health. Batula will embark upon a holistic skin clearing journey, undergoing the Face Reality Clear Skin Method™ with the help of a licensed Face Reality Acne Expert.

Acne is the #1 skincare concern in the United States – affecting more than 70 million people per year¹ – with many experiencing mental health crises as a result. In a survey of 1,000 people in the U.S., all 1,000 reported that acne has had a profound effect on their mental health, with 91% sharing that acne has made them feel anxious, and 85% reporting acne having a negative impact on their confidence².

After 9 seasons on Bravo’s hit series Summer House, Amanda is no stranger to sharing her life with the public and has been honest with viewers and fans about her personal challenges with acne and mental health. “I basically grew up on camera, spending the majority of my 20s and early 30s sharing my life with the world; the ups and downs and everything in between. I’ve had to face my anxiety head on, all while seeing a mirror reflection of myself – a constant reminder of my acne. Like so many, my acne has affected and impacted my confidence and mental health, which is why I’m so grateful to partner with Face Reality – an opportunity not only to clear my skin and experience their unique and holistic approach to skincare, but also to create a forum for open conversation about acne and mental health. Because talking about it is just as important as tackling it.”

This month, Batula will begin Face Reality’s Clear Skin Method™ – embarking on her journey to clear skin with NYC-based Madalaina Conti, a Certified Acne Expert and Licensed Esthetician. The Clear Skin Method™, which promises visible results in 90 days, combines a holistic and personalized treatment routine that includes acne-safe lifestyle guidance, the right combination of professional treatments, and clinically-effective home care products adapted over time with 1:1 support from Conti.

Face Reality Chief Revenue Officer, Deanna Fleming shares, “We are especially excited to partner with Amanda Batula and support her clear skin journey. Watching her vulnerability to share her own experiences with acne and mental health has and will resonate with so many, proving that they are not alone. At Face Reality, we know acne is more than just a skin concern—it can profoundly impact confidence, mental health, and overall well-being. Through this partnership, we aim to connect with consumers on a deeper level, reinforcing our commitment to clear skin. Our unique approach—combining professional-grade products with expert guidance from certified skincare professionals—takes the guesswork and frustration out of acne treatment. We strive to help people achieve clear skin for good—lasting results they can see and feel.”

Face Reality’s partnership with Batula will entail collaborative marketing and media activity. Additionally, the brand will tap Batula’s talent as a Creative Director to co-design specialty merchandise in support of the brand’s Acne Awareness Month campaign. This campaign, centered on the emotional impact of acne, highlights self-acceptance, empowerment, and the courage to reclaim confidence. It is aimed to create greater awareness about acne, normalizing the conversation and reminding people that they are not alone in their journey.

Beyond this partnership, 2025 promises to be a big year for Face Reality. The brand is poised for continued product innovation, continued research and development, and expanding their education and resources to empower their growing community of skincare professionals in their business success.
