25 Celebrities Who Boldly Showed What They Really Look Like Beneath The Makeup
Famous people who embody the trends of #BareFace #AllNatural #NoFilter
The Vogue magazine "Get Ready With Me" videos featuring celebrities and models garner millions of views every time they are shared. This phenomenon demonstrates how people buy into the culture of celebrity influence.
We are curious about how they take care of their skin and what products they use to achieve that Hollywood glow. However, the other side of this coin is not as light and refreshing as the hydrating mists they swear by.
Picture-perfect women, hailed as the standards of beauty, set unhealthy stereotypes for women all over the world. People believe that if they follow the advice of their favorite celebrities and purchase the products they use, they will attain that kind of beauty.
What is not often discussed is how female celebrities subject themselves to hours of expensive treatments to maintain their youthful appearance. They have the financial means to afford the best of everything, and they must, as their physical attributes are part of what sells them to the public.
This is why people flock and gawk when they see these usually put-together celebrities with barely any makeup on. Fans praise them for revealing what they truly look like behind the makeup and without studio lights.
You know what? It makes them more beautiful in a sense because it shows that they are just people like us, but with access to wealth and treatments that common folks can only hear about.
