A girl without freckles is like a night without stars

I was browsing the interwebs when I came across a "thought" from Into The Gloss, which says that models with freckles don't get cast in beauty campaigns and then there is an affiliate link to Topshop's Freckle Pencil.

I'm almost 100% positive that I've never seen a model with freckles in a beauty ad or campaign unless it was for one of those real beauty campaigns which feature "real women."

I have freckles on my nose and cheeks and when I'm not wearing makeup they can make my face look dirty. Sometimes, I look in my car mirror when I'm not wearing makeup and I swear they're multiplying like little bunnies!

I don't hate my freckles, but I don't love looking like I have dirt on my face, either. While I don't agree at all with freckled models not getting cast in beauty-related jobs, I have to wonder why a company would create a freckle pencil.

Thoughts?
