Bare Naked Face: Celebrities That Look Better Without Make-up

As much as we may love makeup there are somedays when the face deserves a ‘naked break.’ When I came across some stunning makeup-less photos of our favorite celebs such as Rihanna, Beyonce, Tyra Banks etc. it was kind of refreshing to see them in a normal state. We like to see celebrities as plane janes too, but rarely ever do. When the paps do catch them bare-faced, it’s usually a horrible photo. But we wanted to be much more inspiring — and accurate.

It is important to take pride in your skin and develop a routine. It can be dangerous to get too comfortable with wearing makeup. You can easily lose yourself, and come up with the illusion that you aren’t pretty without it. Here at talking pretty we love makeup but we clearly are down with the “less is more” philosophy.

Check out our roundup of celebs who look amazing without a lick of makeup. Tell us, how you feel with a bare face. Do you feel self-conscious or empowered? And why do you think that is?
