Kendall Jenner's Proactiv Brand Deal Doesn't Make Her 'Brave' or 'Vulernable'

Wow, she has acne breakouts like 80% of people aged 11-30?

Kendall Jenner's Proactiv Brand Deal Doesn't Make Her 'Brave' or 'Vulernable'

On January 5th, Kris Jenner tweeted the following tweets saying that she was proud of her daughter (Kendall) for being brave and vulnerable.

Now, many people thought that this was a big announcement as momager Kris had sent out another tweet following the previous one telling everyone to watch Kendall's Twitter to see what the "big announcement" was.

If you don't already know, the "big announcement" was a brand deal with Proactiv. It wasn't some life-changing, revolutionizing news that would change the world as we knew it. So, if you wanted it in news form, THIS JUST IN: KENDALL JENNER SUFFERS FROM BREAKOUTS. Whew, I don't know how you or I could have lived without that information.

On a serious note, this is just embarrassing. Kendall has her own dermatologist, first of all. Actually, scratch that- the entire family goes to the same dermatologist. It has been said in many interviews, so it's not some piece of secret information.

If this isn't proof of how detached the Karjenner's are from the real world and ACTUAL issues, I don't know what is. They have millions (if not billions combined) of dollars and a HUGE social following to actually do good in the world, but instead, we are given some "life-changing" and "raw" gimmick.

Acne is a serious thing that people actually deal with (coming from the girl who has been on Accutane twice). A couple of pimples that go away in a day or two isn't #lifechanging. Acne is something that can be damaging to someone's self-confidence and while I'm sure Kendall didn't feel her best with a breakout at an award show, I don't think Proactiv is what solved it, but probably expensive skin treatments and trips to the dermatologist.

Just a tip for Kendall, you have a HUGE platform to talk about real-life things. Use it for good. Talk about anxiety and mental health. Talk about charity work. Talk about something that doesn't write you a check once you tweet about it. A paid brand deal makes what you're saying sound very insincere.

And, by the way, Kris, none of us were moved by this announcement. A brand deal isn't life-changing news.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
