I think of casting directors and agents as girls. Girls don't like seeing pimple faces or fat Joes, nor do they like broken nails or skinny Petes. When I walk into an audition, I know in the back of my mind that there is a great chance of me not getting the part just because of my blemishes. It doesn't matter how well I act, or how friendly I am, if the people I'm auditioning for don't want to bother putting make up on me, or don't want to photoshop my face, they simply won't hire me.
Now, I only recently found out what my trigger is, and only certain ointments work on my face for so long before they somehow stop working, so for me, its kinda hard getting work. Its not easy, but its the truth. If you don't have the look that people are looking for, its going to be harder and harder for you to get work.
