Actress Candace Cameron Bure, best known for playing D.J. Tanner on the family sitcom “Full House,” is no stranger to Hollywood’s largely unrealistic beauty standards. The child star grew up in front of the camera, first gracing television screens when she was just five years old. Now as an adult, the 47-year-old says she still occasionally contends with the industry’s unhealthy beauty ideals.

During a recent appearance on the “Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey“ podcast, which aired on Feb. 13, the actress, producer, and New York Times best-selling author chatted about some of the body image concerns she still struggles with today.
