With 1.2 million Instagram followers, Leni takes after her mother in more ways than one. Though her profile has numerous stylized shots, she has also used this platform to openly discuss skincare and just how much of a struggle it can be, even for those whose social media pages suggest otherwise. She shared a selfie with no makeup and no filter, showing pimples dotted around her face. But no makeup was required to get praise from followers, as comments read “Bravo for posting” and “I applaud you for showing this human side.” In her Stories, which disappear after a day, she also shared a video showing her face with acne on it and captioned it, “Bad skin. This too shall pass.”
