As the female temptress whose brutal murder forms the basis of The Undoing, Matilda De Angelis is one of TV's hottest new stars.
But the Italian beauty has revealed that despite always looking picture perfect on screen, she struggles with acne.
Sharing an unfiltered raw photo of her red blemished face, the 25-year-old told fans her face was "eaten by acne".
She wrote, in Italian: "There are things that cannot be controlled and this year taught us well.
"There are changes that we must accept in our life and with them, the perception of ourselves and the world around us. Paradoxical things happen in life don’t they? Well, for me, being an actress and working with a face eaten by acne is one of them.
"Every day I have to wake up and present myself first in front of the mirror and then in front of the camera with all the emotional load that already entails and being 'splendid,' 'in part' and concentrated together with all my fears and insecurities literally on the skin.
"There are much bigger problems in life, I am aware of that, but I wanted to share this little truth perhaps to feel stronger, perhaps to accept myself better."
Matilda finished by telling fans that they had to choose how to deal with their fears in life.
“Our fears can paralyse us or they can become a great force, it is up to us to choose the path. And to practice so much gratitude for all the good things that happen to us and maybe even for the bad ones."
Matilda won plaudits as Elena Alves alongside Hugh Grant and Nicole Kidman in The Undoing.
She is now filming the movie Across The River And Into The Trees with Liev Schreiber.
