We’re all so used to seeing our favorite celebrities in full glam on the red carpet or at exclusive parties, but it’s becoming increasingly common for the A-list to share intimate, makeup-free selfies on their social media platforms.

Seeing a celebrity (who has millions of people judging their every move) forgo their makeup routines feels encouraging and totally liberating. After all, between our daily makeup routines and social media filters, it can sometimes feel daunting to go totally barefaced.

Jennifer Lopez has been known to share a bare-face selfie or two. Most recently she posted a gorgeous video on her Instagram of her and her cousins making waffles on Christmas morning. No makeup required.

Bella Hadid regularly embraces her natural beauty, posting a selfie on Instagram, which showed the supermodel in a close-up selfie with sunlight beaming across her face, while the rest of the carousel featured pictures of her with friends, celebrating her friend’s wedding and a cute moment with her niece, Khai, the daughter of her sister Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik.

A few months ago, Lady Gaga treated her followers to a fresh-faced, up-close-and-personal selfie with the sun gleaming off her natural skin and she looked beautiful. We were also extremely envious of her summery surroundings as she appeared to be stood in a lovely floral garden.

Similarly, Adele posted a stunning shot of herself on her Instagram to mark her 33rd birthday, with the caption “Thirty Free”, suggesting she found embracing her natural beauty incredibly liberating.

That’s not to say they don’t have a head start. After all, they do have access to the best dermatologists, facialists and aesthetic doctors the world has to offer, as well as the inside track on the latest cosmetic treatments and skin-boosting products.

Nonetheless, it does serve as a reminder that our natural skin is something to celebrate and all of the things we once considered to be “imperfections” are actually just as grid-worthy as when we’re rocking full coverage foundation and a statement smoky eye or bright red lip.
