People are now getting freckle tattoos, and those of us born with them are very confused

Guess we still remember being teased mercilessly for them


I used to be convinced I’d never be hot, and it was all because I had freckles. I’m still convinced I’ll never be hot, but that’s for different reasons.

So when I found out people were getting freckles tattooed onto their face, I couldn’t believe it.

“They’re angel kisses,” my mom used to tell me when I asked her if it were possible to get them removed as prepubescent boys do not like girls with freckles. But of course, just like everything ugly, they’re now trendy.

Places like Top Shop have even been selling freckle pencils for some time, and thought we were confused, we thought the fad would die. But apparently pencil’s weren’t permanent enough.

People are now tattooing freckles on their face (by choice!). And us naturally “angel kissed” souls only have one question: Why?

I mean, you’re all beautiful, but?

And while some are quite noticeable,

Others are opting for a more natural look.

You guys. I'm O.D.ing on these freckles this week. And it's obnoxious. And I love it. Ugh someone stop me ?

All we can hope for you guys is that they don’t go out of fashion again, because if they do, you definitely won’t be sitting at the cool kid’s table. Been there, done that.
