The brave blogger took to Instagram to share her story of rosacea with a selfie showing half of her face with makeup and half without.

Lex expressed her difficulty in posting the photo - which shows the rosacea on her face - at first: "This photo was hard to take and is even harder to post. Every single time I take a photo of my bare skin I am still shocked, because this is not how I picture myself."

She then goes on to explain how she feels it was important to share the image in order to show how much of a positive impact makeup can have on our confidence and the way we feel about ourselves.
