Woman tries the faux freckles hack and loves the results – but people are all saying the same thing | The Sun

A BEAUTY fan has gone viral after trying the faux freckle hack – but whilst she loves the results, viewers are of a slightly different opinion.

It seemed that not everyone thought the freckles appeared natural, with one person writing: ''It does not. Lol.''

Someone else penned: ''natural freckles [skull emoji].''
