Demi Moore and Bruce Willis’ daughter Tallulah reveals painful results of Skin Picking Disorder

by

As someone who’s always interested in well-being, I wanted to share something deeply personal that Tallulah Willis, Demi Moore and Bruce Willis‘ daughter, recently opened up about. She bravely showed the effects of her skin picking disorder, and it’s a really important reminder that so many of us struggle with things we don’t always talk about. It takes incredible courage to be so open, and I applaud her for raising awareness.

I noticed a lot of people were concerned about some redness on my skin, so I shared a few photos and a quick video on Instagram while I was on my way out. I wanted to be open about it and show everyone that it’s totally normal to have skin imperfections!

The actress and social media personality showed off a natural look with just a touch of red lipstick, and wore her hair loose and short.

“I love us!” a Los Angeles resident shared in an Instagram caption, celebrating the beauty of realness and self-acceptance, even with imperfections like acne and skin picking.

Willis got plenty of support from her followers.

People complimented Tallulah’s appearance, with one person saying she always looked perfect, another praising her smile, and a fan noting she looked especially pretty when she appeared natural, as in the recent post.

As a lifestyle expert, I often talk about self-care, and it’s important to address all aspects of wellness, including mental health. One condition I want to bring to your attention is skin picking, sometimes called dermatillomania or excoriation disorder. Basically, it involves compulsive skin picking, and it’s something the experts at Cleveland Clinic want people to be aware of.

Oh my gosh, in June 2024, she finally posted on Instagram! It was these amazing before-and-after pictures, showing her face getting better from… well, you know, the thing. It was just incredible to see her healing process, and honestly, I’ve been screenshotting those photos ever since!

The actress, who recently shared that she has autism, posted a ‘before’ photo showing her skin around her mouth, nose, and eyes covered in red, healing cuts and scratches.

The ‘after’ photo revealed a much clearer, blemish-free visage.

‘PICKING HAPPENS!! And then healing **can ** happen,’ she captioned the carousel. 

Healing isn’t about achieving perfect skin or eliminating unwanted thoughts, and it doesn’t mean you’ll never struggle again. It’s about celebrating the little improvements you make along the way.

She finished by saying that there’s a strong sense of togetherness in this fight, and she’s eager to share what helped her succeed and support others who are struggling.

In 2021, the celebrity shared that she had been diagnosed with a skin condition, and expressed excitement about the positive results she was seeing with her treatment.

Tallulah shared before-and-after photos of her skin, joking, ‘Just an update for my fellow chronic skin pickers!’

She announced she was achieving her skincare goals, describing her skin as healthy and glowing, and shared the products she was using. She also mentioned she was avoiding picking at her face.

She added: ‘NOT TOUCHIN MY PRECIOUS DELICATE FACHE W GRUBBY NAILS IN 4 – COUNT EM’ – 4 MONTHS.’ 

Tallulah shared that she’d never been more excited to talk about her progress and was incredibly proud of the positive changes she was making in her self-care routine.

Tallulah shared in 2024 that she was diagnosed with autism. She explained how discovering this diagnosis this past summer had profoundly impacted her life.

She shared her health discovery amid her father’s ongoing battle with dementia.

She shared an old video of herself with her father, who was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and aphasia in the last two years. The video was taken on the red carpet at the premiere of her father’s 2004 film, The Whole Ten Yards, in which she also appeared as a 10-year-old.

With the post, she wrote: ‘Tell me [you’re] autistic without telling me [you’re] autistic.’

The video shows a young Tallulah playfully touching Bruce while he’s being interviewed. She’s seen gently playing with his ears and repeatedly rubbing his bald head as he answers questions from a journalist.

Her post prompted a follower to ask about her diagnosis.

The actress revealed that she was recently diagnosed with an illness this summer, and it’s something she’s never spoken about publicly before. She explained that the diagnosis has had a significant impact on her life.

Tallulah’s sister, Scout LaRue, pointed out that she was stimming, and Tallulah responded by saying she wished the audio was better so they could hear it more clearly, referencing a specific ear movement.

The Cleveland Clinic defines stimming as repeatedly performing the same motions or vocalizations.

This refers to how individuals manage their feelings, and it’s frequently seen in people with autism and other conditions that affect brain development, though it doesn’t occur in every case.

Tallulah has openly shared her experiences with self-care and body image struggles, offering encouraging support to her followers online.

In 2021, she shared on Instagram that she felt she needed to punish herself for not resembling her mother, following comments that she looked like her father.

I used to hate looking like my father, because I genuinely believed my appearance was the reason nobody would ever love me – but that’s completely wrong! I realized I’m valuable and deserving of love no matter what – at any age, any size, or with any hairstyle! And you are too.

She added, ‘You need to soothe the wound within your soul before trying to “fix” the outsides. 

Pay attention to the sensitive people around you, especially when it comes to their social media use. Be aware that an intense focus on appearance could signal deeper issues beyond simply wanting to feel good about themselves.
