Celebrities are known for their glamorous and heavy cosmetic appearances on red carpets and magazine covers. However, seeing them in their natural, unadulterated looks is equally interesting. This article presents a collection of great pictures of celebrities revealing their natural beauty. From no-makeup selfies to paparazzi shots, these images showcase the raw and authentic sides of some of the biggest stars in Hollywood. So get ready to be amazed by the natural beauty of these celebrities and perhaps even inspired to embrace your own!
Britney Spears
Britney Spears is one of the most recognized people on the planet. She is a global star. Over the years, she has gone through different appearances, yet, seeing her without her trademark makeup on brings us back to the everyday girl she always aspired to be.
I’ll pretend the smudged mascara under her eyes in this post-party selfie wasn’t there because let’s face it: every woman has been there. Recently, Spears has been focusing on revealing her true, unfiltered self, not just by forgoing makeup but also by letting her body and hair go natural.
Gigi Hadid
The Hadids are, without a doubt, genetically fortunate. Both Gigi and her younger sister, Bella, are stunning. Given how successful they’ve been as models, this comes as no surprise at all. Gigi is a major supermodel right now, and she looks great without any makeup.
Even while swimming in the pool under the hot sun, she manages to look flawless. Only she could have pulled such an amazing look. Even though this is not a professional photo shoot, it looks like she was posing for a magazine.
Kim Kardashian
You might think that a celebrity of Kim Kardashian’s stature would never be seen in public without at least a little bit of makeup, but when she promoted her KKW Beauty concealer kits, she went au naturale. Kim’s bare face did not look all that different from her regular appearance.
Kim Kardashian has put forth an honest effort to be a role model for women everywhere. Giving your face a break from makeup every once in a while is a small but positive step in the right direction, and Kim Kardashian seems to be doing a really good job at that.
Cindy Crawford
The supermodel Cindy Crawford enjoyed immense fame in the ’80s and ’90s, and she continues to enjoy that fame today. Even at the young age of 56, she is still a sight to behold. A well-rested Crawford posted this picture of herself on Instagram, and I can’t believe how stunning she is even without makeup.
Many celebrities wouldn’t have shared such an image of themselves in bed, but Cindy Crawford is confident with her beauty. She was one of the most iconic supermodels in her youth, but she would still be able to hold her own in the Showbiz industry.
Adele
Adele is one celebrity who never feels shy to post her pictures and videos without makeup. If you are a fan of Adele and you follow her social media, then you would know what I am talking about. Adele posted this photo of herself and Elmo without any makeup or editing.
This was well before the dramatic changes in her life, including her dramatic weight loss, began to take effect. Adele has empowered women to make decisions about their bodies and sexuality without fear of ridicule, and the more people see her without makeup, the more empowered women feel.
Eva Longoria
Eva Longoria is one of the most beautiful actresses to ever grace the big screen. She’s always had confidence in her appearance and will continue to do so as she ages. She let the world see her healthy, makeup-free face on a flight to Dubai, and she is just as stunning as ever.
Longoria’s ability to stay true to herself over the years and publicly celebrate her natural beauty is something I admire greatly. Many women look up to her as an inspiration because of her stance on natural beauty. She is the prime example that women don’t need makeup to look beautiful.
Jennifer Garner
Jennifer Garner marked her 47th birthday by sharing a natural, makeup-free selfie on the internet. Despite reaching her late 40s, she continues to radiate youth and beauty. Neutrogena chose Garner to be the face of their brand and feature her in advertisements due to her genuine endorsement and personal use of their products.
On Instagram, Garner frequently posts pictures of herself without any makeup, and each one only highlights her natural beauty more. She may not be as active in Hollywood as she used to be, but she is surely one of the most beautiful women in the showbiz industry.
Chrissy Teigen
I agree with the caption “no filter necessary” that Chrissy Teigen’s husband, John Legend, gave this photo. It is the perfect caption for this photo of Chrissy Teigen. With one of the most beautiful faces in the world, Teigen clearly takes good care of her appearance.
Apart from her day-to-day activities, Teigen has been very forthright about her preference for a more natural appearance and her desire to empower women. She embodies the ideal of a confident woman, whether she’s wearing makeup or not. I have to say that she is definitely one of the most beautiful people in Hollywood.
Lana Del Ray
Lana Del Ray is a remarkable artist who transforms into a much more beautiful version of herself when she decides to abandon her distinctive heavy black eyeliner. The absence of makeup on her face highlights the inherent beauty of her features, particularly her eyes, which radiate kindness and warmth.
This transformation of hers is not only a testament to her natural beauty but also complements the emotional depth of her music. It is a known fact that the music industry can be extremely harsh and unforgiving, but Lana Del Ray has found solace and encouragement in her friend and fellow singer, Marina. Marina can also be seen in this picture without any makeup.
Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez’s picture-perfect face was on full display in a 2019 Instagram post. Of course, this wasn’t her first time, and it won’t be her last. More recently, she returned to Instagram to divulge her skincare routine in the hopes that her millions of followers might one day achieve her enviable complexion and beauty.
Lopez is well aware of the actions she should take to ensure that she shines brightly both on the outside and on the inside. Taking a cue from her example, the rest of us could improve our understanding of how can rock natural beauty.
Zendaya
Zendaya is one of the most down-to-earth celebrities you might ever come across. She is also the most likable person in the industry. Like most of the other women on this list, she is also known to post make up free selfies on her social media.
So she is no stranger to going makeup-free, the focus of this particular post was on how well the light is reflected on her face and shirt, but I can’t deny the fact that the combination of her natural beauty and the extraordinary light effect makes for an amazing picture.
Bella Hadid
The model Bella Hadid is famous for her outlandish hair and makeup choices. Recently, however, she’s been flaunting her makeup-free face, and I approve. Hadid’s natural beauty is so striking that she could walk the runway without wearing any cosmetic enhancements.
This photo of her is one of our favorites because the towel wrap gives her an even more everyday appearance. It’s easy to forget that A-listers have hair just like ours and that they use towels to dry it after a shower.
Kaitlyn Bristowe
Kaitlyn Bristowe, winner of Season 11 of The Bachelorette, has undergone a makeover in recent years, so it’s refreshing to see her ‘no makeup’ photos she posted to social media with the caption “This is how I normally look.” Even without makeup, she looks as stunning as she always does.
She has done various cosmetic procedures on her face, and many people have commented on this. She’s had enough of the comments about her new look and figured posting a picture of herself without makeup would send a message that she doesn’t care what others think.
Salma Hayek
If you’ve ever tried to wear waterproof makeup, you know that it doesn’t always perform as advertised. Salma Hayek, however, has proven that you don’t need to bother with that waterproof nonsense; instead, a simple face wash will give you the same dewy beach look.
Hayek has successfully worn minimal makeup on multiple occasions despite being in her 50s. It’s encouraging to see so many middle-aged women from Hollywood who are comfortable and confident in their own skin. These women really show you that age is just a number and the way you feel is what makes you young.
Drew Barrymore
Drew Barrymore chose to go makeup-free in honor of her 44th birthday. One of the great things about Drew Barrymore is that she is totally natural. She hasn’t followed the lead of other celebrities and gotten plastic surgery to alter her naturally stunning appearance.
Barrymore is all for embracing the wrinkles that come with age, but I have to admit that her skin looks awesome even at 44 years old. Barrymore maintains really good health and also has an effective skincare routine. She demonstrates how one can maintain a youthful appearance even when eating a healthy diet.
Demi Moore
Demi Moore has been a prominent figure in the entertainment industry for many years. Despite the constant glitz and glamour of her profession, it can be challenging to feel confident in one’s own appearance. However, Demi seems to have no trouble in this regard.
Recently, she shared a photo of herself on social media, with the caption “Hot bath and meditation,” showcasing her self-care routine. At sixty years of age, Demi’s skin appears ageless and impeccable. It’s time for her to divulge her secrets to maintaining her youthful glow.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
There are so many people who apply makeup on their faces before heading out to the gym. But let’s be honest; it is all going to melt off when you are working out. Sarah Michelle Gellar is one celebrity that understands this.
In this photo, you can see her natural sweaty glow and the photo of her working out without any makeup. She manages to look stunning despite her obvious hard work at the gym. Everybody dreams of looking as good as Sarah Gellar at the gym.
Tyra Banks
Years of training help models look their best on camera, but natural beauty is something that can’t be taught and is innate in some women. This unretouched photo of Tyra Banks is one of our favorites because it shows her being herself—a kooky, bare-faced goof who proudly wears her unaltered, naturally curly hair.
As the host of America’s Next Top Model, she no doubt faces intense pressure to maintain her appearance. But she is happy with how she naturally looks and does not let the pressure get to her. This is the type of confidence that everyone should have.
Ashley Graham
Ashley Graham has done incredible things for plus-size women. She has always been unafraid to show her curves, and now she is challenging norms by challenging Victoria’s Secret to include women of all body types in their shows. The makeup-free face, along with the glasses, make this photo even more beautiful.
Graham has advocated for celebrities to act more naturally, and what better way to do so than to set an example? She is showing that she is a leader in the industry, and she is leading by example. She’s always been unafraid to be herself, and that’s inspired countless other women to go out and embrace who they really are, no matter what the world thinks.
Sofia Vergara
In this makeup-free selfie, Sofia Vergara appears almost unrecognizable as she battles a 102-degree fever. But then again, who would look like themselves with a fever? This just goes to show that, at the end of the day, celebrities are human beings like us.
Sofia Vergara is always confident about her looks. She embraces her natural looks even when she is feeling down. Not only is this an inspiration for women, but it also shows that women are attractive both with and without makeup.
Yara Shahidi
Yara Shahidi’s career has taken off ever since she began appearing in the television show Black-ish. This selfie of her without any makeup on is additional evidence that she has completely embraced the natural beauty of her African heritage. In this photo, you can see the sun shining on her face.
The bright yellow flowers that she wears in her hair only serve to emphasize the allure of her flawless complexion and the beauty of the sun’s rays. The flawless complexion that Shahidi possesses exemplifies the very definition of the “fresh face” aesthetic. The more photos she shares of herself in her natural state, the more I fall in love with her.
Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga is known to have some of the most extraordinary looks on stage. She spent the first few years of her career hiding behind layers upon layers of unique clothing and elaborate makeup, so when she posted her make up free photo, we were all eager to see her natural appearance.
Everyone knows that Lady Gaga is beautiful, but few could have guessed that her natural appearance was equally stunning as her makeup look. This photo shows her natural beauty in its full glow. The Tiffany diamond on her neck brilliantly complements her natural beauty.
Emmy Rossum
Emmy Rossum is one of those people who look exceptionally beautiful even when they are not wearing makeup. What adds to their beauty is the level of confidence they show. Emmy Rossum took this photo in the Philippines when she was on vacation.
Emmy Rossum posted a photo of herself with un-tweezed, bushy brows to remind us that you just need to enjoy the vacation without worrying about how you look. But I have to say that this might not work for everyone as being naturally beautiful also helps her case.
Lily Collins
Lily Collins has been in front of the camera since she was two years old, so she is no stranger to fame. She lost weight for her film “To the Bone,” but after she regained her weight, she looked better than ever before, as you can see in this makeup-free car selfie.
Her natural features are absolutely amazing, including her stunning eyes, which are usually hidden by makeup and are as bright as her glow. One of the best things that Lily Collins does is that she posts these makeup-free selfies regularly. This gives women the confidence to love themselves and know that they are beautiful even without makeup.
Gwyneth Paltrow
Gwyneth Paltrow is a big proponent of using healthy, non-invasive methods to improve one’s appearance and well-being. Over the years, she has had different cosmetic procedures on her face. Many of her social media posts as of late have been of her without any makeup at all.
She has been one of the most successful models and actresses in Hollywood. Because of her inherent attractiveness, Paltrow will never go out of style. Besides the fact that she was born with one of the most beautiful looks I have ever seen, nothing else can account for it.
Shakira
Shakira, a native of Columbia, has been creating quality music for a long time. She has been called the “Queen of Latin Music,” and her music has been heard all over the world. Shakira has posted no makeup photos before as well, and she looks as beautiful in this picture as she has always done.
She’s killing it in life thanks to her flawless appearance, impressive vocal range, and global fame. She has also shared her tips with her fans by telling them that they should always use sunscreen when they go out and that they should never sleep with makeup on.
Julianne Hough
I don’t think people get it when they post photos of themselves with full faces of makeup and the caption, “I just woke up like this.” On the other hand, Julianne Hough epitomizes the phrase, “I just woke up like this.” Her wavy hair and fresh face enhance her beauty.
This also goes to show that people who are naturally beautiful can easily pull off selfies right after they wake up. It’s no wonder Hough looks so great, given how seriously she takes her health and how active and healthy her lifestyle is. A healthy, well-balanced diet and regular exercise can do wonders for your skin.
Gabrielle Union
It’s hard to believe that Gabrielle Union is almost 50 years old when you see her in this picture without any makeup. Union has amazing skin, and she knows how to flaunt that, too, while staying completely natural. Union has posted many make-up-free photos on the internet.
With each of the photos she posts, she seems to radiate an ever-increasing sense of joy and self-assurance. She has no problems sharing all-natural photos of herself. I wish I had the beauty and confidence of Gabrielle Union. More recently, she’s stopped hiding her freckles with makeup and is proudly displaying them on her skin.
Busy Philipps
Busy Philipps has starred in such shows as Freaks and Geeks, Dawson’s Creek, and White Chicks. She has a lot of comedic energy and is constantly auditioning for new roles. Not only does she regularly post makeup-free selfies, but she is also a vocal advocate for the practice.
As a celebrity, it’s awesome that you’re comfortable in your skin and proud of your complexion. Everyone loves her flawless skin. If you want other people to love your skin, then you have to love it and take care of it yourself. That is what Busy Philipps does.
Selena Gomez
Since Selena Gomez was a young girl, she has been a public figure. She has recently launched her own makeup line in addition to her acting and singing careers. She is doing well after dealing with Lupus, an autoimmune disease. She loves her natural appearance and is stunning without any makeup on.
When you consider how challenging it is to maintain health while dealing with her illness, it’s incredible that her skin is so radiant and clear. When Selena does makeup tutorials online, she often posts photos of her bare face. Celebrities like Gomez, who defy conventional beauty standards, are an inspiration.
Heidi Klum
Few supermodels can claim that they have achieved as much in the industry as Heidi Klum. In addition to being a supermodel, she has worked as a host, producer, and businesswoman. She is also known to share photos with no makeup on, which many of her peers would never even try to do.
I love this trend of celebrities posting makeup-free photos of themselves, and when Heidi Klum joins in, you know that the trend is going to pick up. She shared a funny selfie with the caption ‘not camera ready.’ I couldn’t help but appreciate how good she looked even when she wasn’t ready for the camera.
Kourtney Kardashian
Always looking flawless, the Kardashians are known for their expert use of contouring and other cosmetic techniques. Kourtney Kardashian’s photo might not be her best, but it just goes to show that behind all that glamor, the Kardashians are also like normal people. I think Kim wouldn’t be too happy with Kourtney posting this picture.
Kourtney posted this humorous photo of herself and her sister Kim online. You might wonder about the shine on their face; well, both of them are wearing face masks in this photo. This photo is proof that the Kardashian sisters have a lighthearted and fun side.
Camilla Mendes
Camilla Mendes recently participated in a bold and beautiful photoshoot where she embraced her natural beauty and went makeup-free. This was a departure from her usual on-screen persona as Veronica on Riverdale. Mendes’ unique and stunning features, such as her striking brown eyes, are a testament to her Latina heritage.
Her raw and unadorned appearance in the photoshoot showcased her natural beauty and radiance, reminding us that true beauty comes from within. The actress has often been praised for her beauty, both with and without makeup, and this photoshoot further solidified her status as a beautiful and confident woman.
Jessica Alba
It takes some effort to achieve Jessica Alba’s “no makeup” look. The key to beautiful, healthy-looking skin as you get older, is hydration, and she uses a range of different products to achieve that goal. She uses eye cream first thing in the morning and then only applies mascara to her lashes.
In total, she used around eight cosmetic products in her daily skincare routine. “Honest,” which is Alba’s personal product line, is focused on natural, cruelty-free ingredients that are good for your skin and the environment. And as you can see from the picture above, her skincare products actually work really well.
Lea Michele
It is almost how beautiful Lea Michele is without any makeup on. Hunbelievable er natural look could stand on its own as a filter. It’s possible the lighting was perfect for this shot of her, but even if it wasn’t, she’d still look gorgeous.
Since Michele has struggled with acne in the past, she must feel great relief at finally being able to show her skin. Michele has inspired other women who suffer from skin issues by sharing the secret to her radiant, clear complexion. Her photos also give confidence to such women who are suffering from different types of skin conditions.
Kelly Clarkson
This has to be one of the cutest pictures on our list. Kelly Clarkson gave us a glimpse of her personal life by posting a photo of herself on her husband’s lap, with a cute smile on and without makeup. To be honest, she doesn’t need any makeup as her smile is enough to make her beautiful.
I have to say that this photo is far more stunning than any of her posed photos. Kelly Clarkson has posted no makeup photos of herself before as well, but during the 2020 lockdown, she started embracing her natural beauty like never before.
Sarah Hyland
Sarah Hyland’s first major role came in the modern family. Since then, she has worked on a number of different projects. Her health struggles have been extensive, but still, she is able to carry off a “no makeup” look. She has had severe medical kidney problems, but that has not stopped her from sharing photos of her natural beauty.
Hyland’s beautiful eyes are even more noticeable when her face has no makeup on. Although the false eyelashes might help, it is her natural beauty that makes this photo so amazing. You might not see her post a lot of makeup-free photos, but this photo is from the time she followed a no-makeup Monday selfie trend.
Jessica Biel
One can only wish that they looked this beautiful when they are hungover, as Jessica Biel does. Biel posted the photo to show off how normal she looked after a wild night out, but to be honest; I don’t actually know if she actually did go to a party the night before.
Since then, Biel has shown more of her frizzy hair and no makeup face on social media. I, for once, don’t see any difference in her photos. She looks so beautiful without makeup as well, and I am a little confused if Jessica Biel has even more makeup in any of her films.
Alicia Keys
Alicia Keys is recognized as a pioneer of the no-makeup selfie trend, thanks to her belief in genuine beauty. She has an angelic voice and a complexion to match, but her focus is on revealing the true source of beauty, which she believes comes from within.
Rather than relying on cosmetics to enhance her self-worth, Keys encourages embracing and projecting positive emotions. She believes that true beauty comes from within, and it is not solely about physical appearance. By shifting her focus from external to internal, Keys has inspired others to embrace their own inner beauty.
Kesha
Kesha’s natural, makeup-free appearance is simply captivating. She is known for her powerful voice and hit songs and has been a trendsetter and style icon in the music industry. While many celebrities often opt for heavy makeup to enhance their features, Kesha is known for embracing her natural beauty.
She has been doing this since 2019, when she decided to embrace her natural look with confidence. This has been a refreshing change and has inspired many fans to embrace their own natural beauty. The freckles on her face, along with her beautiful green eyes, all add to her natural beauty.
