Kate Upton voices skin struggles since becoming a mom, fears about going makeup-free for photoshoot

Kate Upton voiced some struggles she's faced with her skin since giving birth in 2018 to her daughter Genevieve.

Upton shared her hesitancy for the photoshoot is a result of some changes she's noticed in her skin since giving birth to her daughter, Genevieve, 2, whom she shares with husband Justin Verlander. She called the last couple of years a "struggle bus" in terms of dealing with melasma. "Of course, the first bit of melasma was right over my upper lip, which made me look like I had a permanent mustache. [My skin's] reaction to being in the sun changed a lot," Upton, 28, told the outlet. The supermodel is, of course, a pro when it comes to striking a pose but described ditching makeup as "always a little nerve-wracking."
