WOMAN RESPONDS TO TROLLS AFTER BEING DUBBED 'SWAMP CREATURE'
A young makeup artist has hit back at vile internet trolls who dubbed her a 'swamp creature' and 'ugly' for exposing her troubled skin in online makeup tutorials. Radka Kovacova, 21, of Hendon, North London, who has suffered from acne for the past year, regularly shares tutorials on the social media site, Instagram. Despite gaining more than 54,000 supportive followers, the Middlesex University student has also attracted unwanted attention from hundreds of trolls and receives hurtful comments about her skin on a daily basis. One cruel commenter compared the Instagram star to something from a 'horror movie', while others dubbed her a 'freak' and a 'clown'.
