With the help of cosmetics, any woman can not only transform herself - professional makeup can completely change facial features, shift accents, turning an ordinary simpleton into a fairy-tale beauty and vice versa. And if in everyday life you can refuse bright, noticeable makeup at any time, then the stars of screens and glossy magazines are often deprived of this opportunity - everyone’s attention and the riveted glances of fans force them to look 100% 24 hours a day. True, sometimes celebrities still delight fans with a natural look, untouched by cosmetics and Photoshop, and most of them “without filters” look no worse than in makeup.
Let's compare what popular domestic and foreign show business stars look like in full dress and in everyday life. Today's photo selection is a vivid example of the confrontation between natural beauty and modern make-up!
The natural charm of domestic celebrities
Alsou
The popular singer, remembered by fans for her excellent performance at Eurovision and bright videos, now rarely appears on stage, devoting most of her time to her family and children. Nevertheless, the star looks great both in her stage looks and without makeup!
Vera Brezhneva
At 37 years old, the former lead singer of VIA GRA looks fresh and young: her slender figure, beautiful skin and expressive look of the singer are able to captivate millions of fans. Bright makeup emphasizes the sexuality and charm of the star, but without makeup and Photoshop she looks no worse. Knowing this, Vera Brezhneva often pleases her subscribers with fresh photographs “without filters,” receiving a bunch of laudatory comments addressed to her.
Polina Gagarina
Another Russian pop star who practically does not change with or without makeup. Without makeup, Polina looks much younger than her age, and the blooming appearance in the photo below is a clear confirmation of this. Without make-up, the star most often appears on walks with children and at home: where else, if not with the family, can one enjoy life without camera flashes and glossy magazines!
Olga Buzova
Presenter, singer, TV star and simply beautiful Olga Buzova rarely appears in public without makeup - her image involves bright makeup, stylish outfits and noticeable accessories. However, it’s quite easy to find a photo of the star online without Photoshop, and in it Olga appears completely different – touching, sweet and no less beautiful.
Mariya Kozhevnikova
It’s hard to imagine the “Univer” star, who played the role of Alla Grishko for 5 seasons, without bright makeup! However, Maria Kozhevnikova does not hide her natural beauty, regularly posting pictures without Photoshop or makeup.
Nyusha
The bright appearance of the talented singer is a symbiosis of natural charm and competent makeup. The star had rarely used heavy make-up before, preferring more natural, pastel shades, and after the birth of her daughter she began to increasingly appear “in her natural form”, without an ounce of cosmetics or Photoshop filters. Such a transformation did Nyusha good - it makes her seem even younger, more touching and tender.
Tina Kandelaki
The popular presenter and producer is naturally distinguished by her bright appearance, which does not require decorative means. The deep look of brown eyes, thick hair and expressive facial features, characteristic of the star’s Georgian-Armenian roots, look dazzling even without makeup and Photoshop. However, Tina rarely resorts to using noticeable make-up, limiting herself to natural-toned powder, eyeliner and mascara.
Laysan Utyasheva
Honored Master of Sports in rhythmic gymnastics, and now a popular TV diva, Laysan Utyasheva, often pampers fans with photos with her family, where the star looks homely, sweet and cozy. The permanent presenter of “Dancing” looks spectacular and bright on the screen, emphasizing her expressive beauty with skillful make-up, but at home she prefers to remain natural and relaxed, taking care of her skin and absolutely not embarrassed by a scattering of freckles, which, by the way, give her a chic twist.
Anna Khilkevich
Russian actress, best known to the public for her role as Masha Belova from the TV series “Univer. New Dorm,” almost always flashes on the pages of glossy magazines and TV screens in full regalia. However, in everyday life the star is not shy about appearing without makeup - her Instagram has dozens of home photos without Photoshop. The comparison shows that Anna looks stunning in any image, because the key component of her beauty is perfectly fresh skin, regular facial features and a radiant smile.
Svetlana Hodchenkova
Svetlana Khodchenkova is one of the most sought-after domestic film and theater stars. Her filmography includes dozens of popular films and TV series that are loved by viewers. In addition, the actress acted as the face of a famous jewelry brand, and it is not surprising, because her unimaginable femininity and proportional facial features look perfect from the pages of glossy magazines. However, even without retouching, Svetlana looks amazing, which she has repeatedly confirmed with photographs a la naturel.
Elizaveta Boyarskaya
- "I'll come back"
- "Admiral"
- "Five Brides"
Continuing our selection of what Russian and foreign actors and actresses look like without makeup, and their before and after photos, is Elizaveta Boyarskaya. Her fans believe that the actress without makeup is all naturalness. Many also note that the abundance of foundation on her face ages Boyarskaya, and the complete absence of decorative products makes her look like a child.
Foreign stars in everyday life
Cara Delevingne
A top British model, TV star and favorite of numerous brands, Cara Delevingne has the sophisticated bohemian appearance of a teenage girl, so she looks equally impressive with or without makeup. And although the public is accustomed to seeing the star in a glamorous image, the girl is often captured in her natural form, without a hint of decorative cosmetics or Photoshop, which, however, does not spoil her at all.
Cameron Diaz
At 46, the famous Hollywood actress is absolutely not shy about the age-related changes that have occurred to her skin. Moreover, in her books she encourages women to love and appreciate their appearance for what it is, without worrying about the passing of youth. Cameron Diaz is sure that facial wrinkles and other signs of aging skin are natural and no less beautiful than blooming youth. The star confirms her beliefs with numerous radiant photographs in which she is depicted without makeup or Photoshop.
Eva Longoria
One of the famous “Desperate Housewives”, Eva Longoria, is popular among fans not only due to her acting talent. Many consider the girl to be one of the sexiest representatives of the fair sex on the planet; moreover, the star is the official face of the mega-popular cosmetic brand L'Oreal Paris, which forces her to be fully armed at any time of the day. However, there are a lot of photographs of Eva without makeup on the Internet, and in them the girl is just as amazing as on the covers of the glossy magazine.
Kylie Jenner
One of the most expensive Instagram stars, Internet diva and media personality, Kylie Jenner is absolutely not shy about the scattering of freckles on her face, often flaunting them in photos “without filters.” This is not surprising - coupled with incredibly long eyelashes and a piercing gaze, they give the girl a downright angelic appearance!
Kim Kardashian
The name Kim Kardashian is invariably associated with high-quality contouring, expressive facial features and professional makeup, without which the recognized style icon practically never appears in public. However, on her account, the socialite still sometimes posts pictures without foundation, despite her naturally problematic skin. Thus, she encourages girls not to focus on shortcomings, enjoying natural beauty and freshness.
Cindy Crawford
Mega-popular supermodel, beauty with ideal proportions Cindy Crawford practically does not change over time. Many people still call her appearance standard, and her facial features, skillfully emphasized by cosmetics, are noble and graceful. Even without makeup and Photoshop, the celebrity remains a cover woman among her family, as evidenced by numerous home photos.
Miranda Kerr
One of the most famous Victoria's Secret angels, Australian supermodel Miranda Kerr has an extraordinary appearance, which she likes to emphasize with skillful makeup. The girl’s exquisite beauty does not fade even in her natural form – photographs of the model without makeup are distinguished by special tenderness, grace and elegance.
Sharon Stone
By the age of 61, Sharon Stone had transformed from a young beauty with model appearance into an impressive, but no less attractive woman. The American actress, like Cameron Diaz, does not hide age-related changes at all, which appeal to the status of a mature, successful star. By the way, Sharon Stone has never been known for her love of defiantly bright makeup, preferring natural pastel shades. The ash color of her hair, which hides gray hair, suits the celebrity very well, and small wrinkles do not spoil her appearance at all.
Shakira
One of the most famous Latin American singers, a sex symbol of foreign pop music, Shakira looks impressive and attractive, regardless of how much makeup she has on her face! The sultry beauty makes an indelible impression even at home, impressing fans with her expressive beauty and charm.
Courteney Cox
- "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective"
- "Scream"
- "Cougar Town"
Courtney is beautiful with or without makeup. Even in the photographs taken periodically by intrusive paparazzi, it is clear that the actress’s skin is in excellent condition. Despite the fact that the woman has already crossed the fifty-year mark, Cox can easily be considered to be about thirty years old.
Katie Holmes
- "Batman Begins"
- "Woman in Gold"
- "Phone booth"
In films and at various festivals, Tom Cruise's ex-wife looks simply amazing, which cannot be said about her in real life. The paparazzi “caught” Katie during a walk, when the actress did not have an ounce of makeup on her face. Both fans and haters noted that Holmes looked very tired and haggard.
Madonna
- "Four rooms"
- "Evita"
- "Shadows and Fog"
The singer and actress Madonna is no longer young, so she tries to appear to her fans only in full dress. But sometimes pictures of the star without makeup still appear on the Internet. They clearly show that the years have taken their toll, and Madonna’s appearance is far from her photographs photoshopped by professionals.
Mila Kunis
- "Black Swan"
- "The Book of Eli"
- "Friends with Benefits"
Perhaps many male viewers were jealous of Ashton Kutcher deep down until they saw photographs of Mila Kunis without makeup. Pictures in which the actress had noticeable bags under her eyes and wrinkles caused the effect of a bomb exploding. The unfortunate shots of the star without makeup only proved to the public that actors are people just like everyone else, and they don’t always look like they do on screen.
Lindsay Lohan
- "The Parent Trap"
- "Freaky Friday"
- "Mean Girls"
Lindsay was once a real beauty. Her freckles and perky smile made her spontaneous and attractive. But over time, due to drug and alcohol use, the actress’s appearance changed noticeably. Even cosmetics cannot hide the traces of Lohan’s hectic life, and it’s better for her not to appear in public at all without makeup.
Nastasya Samburskaya
- "Bird home"
- "Ahead of the Shot"
- "Bring Back My Love"
Our selection of what Russian and foreign actors and actresses look like without makeup, and their before and after photos, is completed by Nastasya Samburskaya. She knows very well that cosmetics make her appearance brighter, but she is not shy about posting pictures of herself without using decorative products. At such moments, Samburskaya looks more like a pretty girl living next door than a movie star. But fans of the actress believe that she is beautiful in her naturalness.
