Brittany Mahomes, spouse of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, is renowned for her candid presence on social media. Recently, she offered a glimpse into her struggles with acne by sharing makeup-free photos on her Instagram stories.
After a family photo shoot where the 28-year-old was all dressed up, Brittany snapped a picture of her bare face, captioning it, “Just here for your daily reality check,” drawing attention to her ongoing battle with breakouts around her mouth and reaching out to her followers for advice.
The mother of two confessed, “I’m actually really struggling with my skin right now, trying to figure out why it’s breaking out all around my mouth.” She speculated it might be an allergic reaction but couldn’t pinpoint the cause. “I’ve been trying to figure it out for so long, and it’ll randomly just flare up and then it will start to get better,” she elaborated. “Last night it was literally like hives and red down here all around my mouth… I have no idea what’s causing it. I feel like I’ve changed everything I’ve used.” In a closer shot, she displayed the redness and bumps near her upper lip and chin, seeking advice with, “Any tips send them my way… thanks friends.”
After receiving a flood of helpful suggestions from her followers, Brittany updated them, stating, “I’m pretty positive I have Perioral Dermatitis. I am going to a dermatologist tomorrow to figure out what I need to do.” Perioral Dermatitis is described as a condition typically affecting young adult women, characterized by inflamed papules, pustules, or scaly patches around the mouth.
Brittany’s openness goes beyond this incident; she has shared several makeup-free photos from workouts and casual outings. In one post from November 2020, the model expressed gratitude for the support on her fitness apparel line alongside a makeup-free mirror selfie. More recently, she posted a reel of herself completing a workout and drinking an Owyn protein shake, makeup-free.
Brittany has been in the spotlight alongside Patrick, 28, who has led the Chiefs to successive Super Bowl victories. Her growing friendship with Taylor Swift, who is dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, has also captured public attention. The two women have often been seen supporting their significant others at NFL games, further solidifying Brittany’s status as a relatable figure.
