Dancing With the Stars may portray glitz and glamour on screen, but for Daniella Karagach, the journey behind the scenes included a personal battle with skincare. Reflecting on her early days on the show, Daniella discloses, “When I first joined the show, my skin went haywire. I was unaware of the amount of makeup I would be applying. And it never crossed my mind. As the makeup layers increased on my face, I didn’t know the proper way to remove it.” This realization highlights the hidden challenges faced by performers, where extensive makeup under bright lights can affect even the strongest skin.
Beyond the glamour of the dance floor, Daniella openly discusses the emotional toll of her skincare journey, confessing, “I was crying daily during the tour because I was so unhappy with my skin. I felt so ashamed. I felt like my acne was the only thing people saw when they looked at me. I was in a dark place. And no one knew because I kept it to myself. It was really terrifying.”
