Andy Warhol, in his Philosophy, distinguishes between temporary blemishes, and those that intrinsically mar your appearance. He maintains that should, for instance, one have an overwhelmingly large nose for their face, this is apparent to everyone as something that is rather unfortunate, and needs not to be acknowledged. Temporary blemishes, however, should be acknowledged so that your companions understand that the way you look just at the moment is not indicative of the way you look normally.
With that said, let it be known I have far more pimples than usual of late, but this is not normal, and I’m sure it’s due to stress, and not a permanent disfiguration by any means.
