These No-Make Up Snaps of Celebrities Will Make You Believe in the Power of Cosmetics

Kathie Lee Gifford

In 2014, the entire female and male cast of the Today show appeared on the show without any makeup for ‘No makeup Monday’ for an hour’s segment on positive self-image. That’s when we saw Kathie Lee Gifford completely bare faced, looking a little pale, but completely comfortable in her skin. The show’s army of hair stylists and makeup specialist must surely have appreciated some time off that day! Kathy has been a television staple since the late 80s, so she understands the pressures of looking good on camera, that’s probably why we don’t see her without makeup very often.

Kate Moss

At 45, this former supermodel tuned entrepreneur is still being pursued by cosmetics companies and clothing brands to become the face of their products. That’s because even at this age, Kate Moss maintains her waif-like figure and beautiful skin, which looks surprisingly blemish-free. Of course, with her reported net worth of $80 million, she can afford the priciest products and skin treatments, even though it is the simplest of routines: using a cleaner, serum and moisturizer. We wonder if the photograph above was taken on a day when she was particularly tired, as we can see that her eyes are swollen.
