23 Stars Without Their Make-Up

Posted by Pamela on March 17th, 2010

Hollywood stars are rarely seen without their make-up, but when they occasionally step out without their trusty mascara, we get a glimpse of what the star beneath the layers of tan and foundation really looks like. Some manage to pull off the fresh faced look, while others shouldn’t leave the house without their concealer firmly in place.  Here is 21 stars bare faced. Some rock the au natural look to perfection – but for the majority, it does little to flatter! It is strange to see what a difference a good tan and some mascara make – but these are the proof that dolling yourself up can really make a difference to your looks. Some of these celebs look so different, you’d almost mistake them for a normal person!

23 – Ashley Tisdale


22 – Amy Winehouse

21 – Marilyn Manson

Check out who else left their concealer at home after the cut!

20 – Madonna

19 – Mariah Carey

18 – Pamela Anderson

17 – Britney Spears

16 – Halle Berry

15 – Cameron Diaz

14 – Jennifer Lopez

13 – Hilary Duff

12 – Beyonce

11 – Angelina Jolie

10 – Kristen Stewart

9 – Lauren Conrad

8 – Eva Longoria

7 – Jessica Alba

6 – Miley Cyrus

5 – Drew Barrymore

4 – Vanessa Hudgens

3 – Lady Gaga

2 – Blake Lively

1 – Katherine Heigl

It’s surprising just how effective make-up is, isn’t it? Not only can it make or break your appearance, but without it, some of these stars look unhealthy! There are a few acceptations though – some of just manage to pull it off, and bravely bare their skin to the world! Leave a comment with who you think looks the best and of course, who you think looks terrible without!

    I love few things more than a good star-without-makeup reel!!

    What on EARTH is going on w/ Winehouse!? Yelp.

    Alba, Beyonce, and Halle look pretty darn cute with or without. But, it sure is satisfying to see Angie Jolie looking so normal. ;)

  2. maria Says:

    These are my favorite kind of celebrity pics. Makes me realize that the average person can look hot too!

  3. Vanessa Says:

    Hi, my names Mark whats wrong with thees woman there beautiful with or without makeup. you know i think you should think about what your going to say first

    yes im Vanessa hudgins and i do not like the way you treat me now please leave me alone….. and no one here will ever no the real me only the magazine me

  4. Robert Says:

    Wow, I would drop everything to marry Jessica Alba right now, specially after seeing her this hot without make-up!!! J-lo comes in at a close 2nd, but she’s a little old for me, Vanessa Hudgens, ties for 2nd). Hally 3rd but same deal as j-lo. Lady ga-ga (grooossssss)… I actually think she’s a dude. Amy Winehouse is crystal meth-house), I’ve had a crush on Drew Berrymore since I first saw ET in the theater when I was a kid (she’s still older by 5 yrs) but not to shabby without the make up).

  5. Jenny Says:

    i think…some of these are just “bad” pictures of the celebrities. miley cyrus for example. she looks really bad, but its the position more than the lack of makeup.
    although i will say jessica alba looks cute! and kristen stewart doesn’t look any different.

  6. goodpost Says:

    lady gaga is so ugly!
    blake lively and angelina jolie stay unchanged (which is good!)

  7. David Says:

    The biggest shock is Eva Longoria OMG!!

  8. Irish Says:

    Katherine Heigl is still beautiful without make up. I appreciate her more.

  9. cheapghdhairstraighteners Says:

    lady gaga is so ugly!

  10. bla Says:

    ashly tisdale, jilary duff, kristen stewart and jessica alba..i think look best without make up.
    the ones that look worst….madonna, beyonce…i don’t rlly remember the rest..but damn..these celebs..i did not expect this….people try to look like these stars..all they are trying is to look like a fake…idk..

  11. MMfan Says:

    wow…Manson looks…modest, now wonder he wears makeup! without it he looks like he could be your normal, quiet uncle. pretty awesome now that i think abou it.

  12. Anne Says:

    Well Jessica,Blake and Vanessa are not bad at all

  13. Sprmcandy Says:

    They just look like normal people to me.

  14. maria Says:

    gaga look like a man O.o

  15. Hannah Says:

    YEEEEEEEEEELPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Amy Winehouse shouldn’t of smoked so much, I thought she was ugly anyway, No offense.

  16. Hannah Says:

    Gosh….Hilary,Blake,Angelina and Ashley look not so bad…but all the others…..I don’t know what I must say……………:S

  17. GFR Says:

    Beyonce still looks beautiful

  18. maya Says:

    this is rediculous.
    a majority of these women are gorgeous on their own. they dont need the make-up. and the ones that look bad or have horrible skin are the ones who add pounds of make-up for their job, or the ones on crack.

  19. jojo Says:

    ok soo..just to point this out. the pic of mariah carey, they were trying to make her look ugly, so im pretty sure she had make up on. its from precious. she probably looks way different when she doesnt have make up on though

  20. Celebrity Smile Says:

    Women in general get a full grade up, as far as their looks when it comes to using makeup. Let’s say a woman without make up has a “C” face, if she uses enough makeup she will have a “B” face.

  21. caitli n Says:

    kristen stewert

  22. teri Says:

    why isn’t anyone saying anything about madonna? she looks like a crystal meth head….what happened to her?

  23. Truth Says:

    Ashley and Miley are not that pretty with make-up, so it’s not surprising that they look like that without it. Same with Amy Winehouse. Madonna’s the only one that surprised me.

    All the rest look like normal people, which is actually nice to see once in a while. Personally I think Vanessa Hudgens looks just as gorgeous without make-up as she does with. Girlfriend has good genes. Same with Halle, Beyonce, Hilary and Blake.

  24. catlen Says:

    omg
    there so ugly!
    thats what you get for covering your face with pounds of makeup.

  25. Catie Says:

    omg there hideous.
    Madonna looks nasty and im not just talking about without the make up.
    Amy might have a bit of a skin condition.
    Ashley Tisdale has a huge nose and is always been ugly to me and so is Cameron and Angie looks like an ailen

  26. Jess Says:

    It’s good to see that even stars can look so ugly.
    They are praised for their beauty in spite of looking so ordinary. It is truly the make up that make them look presentable.

  27. Dimplez Says:

    omfg miley cyrus is beat with and without make up she should just quit acting once and for all also tisdale knowles liegly berry look good without make up i also like angeline jolie but i cannot lie she looks terrible

  28. Rachel Says:

    Marilyn Manson is still hawt without makeup :3

  29. Jorje Says:

    angelina Jolie is scary!!!
    So is Eva Longoria!

    Alba looks pretty good.

  30. jessie Says:

    I think Vanessa Hudgens, Halle Berry, Black livley, Ashley Tisdale, Britney Spears and Jessica Alba all look gorgues with or without make up but I was amazed when i saw Amy Winehouse she acctualy scared me BUT Vannesa & jessica looked the best

  31. lauren Says:

    ashley,miley,vanessa,jessica alba,beyoncé beautiful without makeup but the’re stupid and funny there head :D xdxd

    miley head is funny but she not ugly :D

  32. alejandra Says:

    i think all those celeberty are so redicioulous especially miley no offense! and lady gaga looks like a true man

  33. lucylopez Says:

    umm amy,madonqna,and gaga are sooooooooo ugly! gaga I know your a dude, u just gotta be. Marilyn Manson you are 1 ugly mother fu***r, holy moly!!!! the rest of the girls are ok… but 99.99% of ladys use make up, it just makes us look better:)

  34. heather Says:

    Ashley tisdale, hillary duff and vanessa hudgens look the best. Hillary duff and vanessa hudgens never were makeup anyway but omg AMY WHINEHOUSE! what is wrong with her, not like she wasn’t disgusting with make up but still. BTW not only does madonna look like shes gonna drop dead any minute, but whta’s wrong with her arms?

  35. Angelina Says:

    Angelina looks great even without makeup.

    hey Angi,,, you are my queen!

  36. JS Says:

    The younger they are, the less they need all the makeup, eyelashes, hair dye, etc. Drew looks surprisingly nice without the warpaint though.

  37. Moogles The Great Says:

    “Acceptations” ololol

  38. Ochelle Says:

    amy winehouse, lady gaga, and madonna r soo ugly; cameron diaz and pamela anderson just dont look good; drew barrymore surprised me but shes ok, laura conrad is ok, angelina jolie is ok; miley cyrus is pretty but thats just a bad picture, and all the rest of them r beautiful with or without makeup, but i dont like beyonce and britneys hair, and jessica alba look better without; and kristen looks really tired.

  39. Ioana Says:

    They always take the worse shots … For example some of them are really pretty with no make-up! Kristen Stewart is, Jessica Alba too and also Heigl…. but anyway!

  40. WTFFFF Says:

    OMFG WTF IS WRONG WITH AMY WINEHOUSE, LADY GAGA AND MADONNA?!?!?!?! THE REST ARE ACTUALLY OKAY

  41. Trauma Queen Says:

    Gaga and Winehouse look ugle with or without make-up, so no shcokers there :P

    Longoria and Manson looks like NERDS without make-up! Longoria is almost unrecognisable without those full eyes and lashes!

    What seems typical though, is that blondes tend to look uglier without make-up. Most of the latinas here look good with or without make-up, I think it’s because darker/toasty skin tends to cover skin flaws better than pale skin…

  42. Trauma Queen Says:

    Btw, Ashley Tisdale is not popular in my part of the world. I did not know who she was till I visited this website, and I must say, she comes across as a pretty girl to me!

  43. Abby Says:

    Ashly T looks pretty good with and without make up..

  44. tiffany jones Says:

    madonna and amy winehouse look bad they need to keep the makeup on. pamela anderson dont look bad she look nice without makeup

  45. oluoanju Says:

    Manson looks more like Charles than Monroe.
    the ladies’ biggest flaws are uneven skin, bags under the eyes, and lack of eyelashes but being in a bad mood may have more to do with it than anything else

    Eva looks the most different from her usually presented self while kristen looks unchanged

  46. Debbie G Says:

    This just makes me want to start wearing more make up…Maybe we can look like celebs, too!

  47. Lavi Says:

    they took a real bad pic of beyonce… she look like a man… but i think jessica alba look real good without make up..

  48. Lavi Says:

    oh ya and madonna looks like she had to many surgeries done on her face…

  49. Jenna Says:

    Ummm hello people? Madonna is over 60, that’s what’s up with her!

  50. Jess Says:

    Many of these celebrities actually are wearing makeup, it is just more subtley applied. For example, Tisdale, Mariah (she looked like this for the movie Precious, it was a ‘makeunder). Also, Cameron, Beyonce, Angelina and Gaga all have makeup on their faces. The pictures are probably just taken at unflattering angles or the makeup was not professionally applied.

  51. Erica & Anna B Says:

    WOW miley cyrus looks hidius. what ran her over??

  52. Erica & Anna B Says:

    dang miley looks like a musk rat..anyone agree?

  53. Erica & Anna B Says:

    a quick take on beyonce…she looks like a man

  54. Erica & Anna B Says:

    lady GAGA..needs to put a bottle in her mouth and stay hidden under the blankets, ew

  55. Erica & Anna B Says:

    britney=trash

  56. Erica & Anna B Says:

    cameron diaz & drew barrymore is just another girl in the crowd awesome

  57. Erica & Anna B Says:

    modona…thasts what happens when u dont stay a virgin..pound it

  58. Erica & Anna B Says:

    jessica alba needs to spit out that gum and go apply some make up

  59. Erica & Anna B Says:

    kristen steward trash

  60. Erica & Anna B Says:

    pamala anderson…lazy boob LOL. wow

  61. Erica & Anna B Says:

    hilary doofus…BIG SHOCK

  62. Richard Says:

    Some of these pictures are a real surprise. Its amazing how make up can enhance a girls beauty.

    Eva Longoria is a really good looking girl with an amazing smile. Given a little makeup and a nice hair style makes a good looking girl look like a goddess.

  63. Olyvia Says:

    that picture of mariah cary is just from the movie precious!

  64. Brooklynne Says:

    Oh. My. God. Seriously no one should make fun of these women. They are gorgeous. These are just bad shots of everyone and I truly think its just terrible that they are putting these pictures on the internet. Women want to be viewed with their makeup, they way they do for us. And if you post what they don’t want to be seen as is just cruel. Also the people commenting! Imagine if you were a celeb and everyone was commenting on your photo without makeup making fun of you! One of these women could be on this page write now reading your coment!

  65. I Says:

    dont make fun…y do we use makeup?? ok they use it 4 the same reason.. even tho idk wat to say about man gaga xD

  66. Some random dude Says:

    These pics prove something I have known for a very long time. Seeing regular girls in real life wearing just t-shirts and jeans or sweat pants, like college women, just walking or drinking coffee or putting coins in the meter with make up or not are thousands of times hotter then all of these “stars” to me, with the make up.

    Even late teen and women in their 30s and very few in their 40s/Mom’s will always be more attractive to me. And when these normal everyday women wear those spandex leggings things, even when they have a few extra pounds (which I prefer, string beans and fat cows don’t really turn me on) is a bigger turn on then caking the make up on.

  67. Sept. Says:

    ‘acceptions’? Seriously? EXCEPTIONS… Jeez… You shouldn’t be writing if you don’t know the English language… ‘Acceptions’ isn’t even a word.

  68. hawo Says:

    argghh amy winehouse looks ewww!

  69. lll Says:

    Eh….almost everyone has makeup on? More natural than on the red carpet but still…

  70. Girl Says:

    Lmao, some of you are complete retards. Don’t make fun of Manson just because he’s from a band that you Don’t like. And as for the girls on this list, they’re all retards for wearing so much make up. Why would you want to put whale blubber and other dead animals on your face? Just pisses me off. And a few of these are obviously fake, like how much their face stretches when they smile.

  71. Fan=Fools Says:

    Stars?! They are just regular people with lots of add-ons (expensive make-up, plastic surgery, clothing and photoshop).

  72. home4u Says:

    uh – oh.. being natural is much better IMO…

  73. jezz Says:

    blake lively.. hahahahaha. i never really like her and she’s just another forgettable girl without makeup
    but angie, cameron diaz, drew barrymore, katherine heigl, and ash tisdale still look good !

  74. Catca Says:

    To sum up the comments, the girls that look best are the ones in their twenties and early 30′s (with the exception of Winehouse – goodness I worry for her health seeing that pic). Gee, how surprising!

  75. Moon Says:

    Eva Longoria is downright scary…she looks like Aunt Jemimah!

  76. fireball Says:

    those who didnt look that great with out make up should stick to spray tans and all that other stuff that celebs use. some look good either way, but cmon people! of course the worst pics of celebs are chosen…think a little before you judge by one picture…think beofre you even judge.

  77. wordup Says:

    I think Pamela,hilary,jessica and eva all look refreshing and cute. Halle and katherine look tired but natural.Surprisingly in my opinion beyonce doesn’t look so good,.Angelina ouch!Drew barrymore ouch!

  78. fucko Says:

    Most of them look like natural women, except Amy winehouse, who is 27… that photo can`t be true…

  79. alexa Says:

    But some of these stars do have makeup…

  80. [[lb22 Says:

    Miley Cyrus looks like a young kirk cameron with a wig.

  81. Lakawak Says:

    No…this is stars who got a picture taken at the EXACT wrong time/angle/lighting. at least many of them.

    Doesn’t matter how naturally beautiful you may be, if someone is taking literally a picture of you every second every time you are out in public, occasionally one is going to be taken at just the “right” time to make you look far worse than you actually did at the time.

  82. Naomi Says:

    Those who look bad, just look bad.
    Those who look normal, is more the pose they are in while the picture is being taken. Those who look good, were just born for life in lime lights.
    Bad-winehouse, madonna, cameron, gaga
    Normal-tisdale, manson, carey, Anderson, britney, lopez, beyonce, jolie, stewart, longoria, cyrus, barrymore
    GOOD- berry, duff, Alba, hudgens, lively, Heigl

  83. haist82 Says:

    Jolie looks better without makeup ,half of this pics are photoshop any way.

  84. jenniferisme Says:

    WTF is an acceptation. Seriously.

  85. Monkey Says:

    Vannesa Hudgens loooks like a monkey. xD

  86. Wowee Says:

    Pamela – Really?
    “…there are a few acceptations”?
    English as a second language? Spell check would have helped you here – so would idiot check. I’m guessing that you meant “there are a few “EXCEPTIONS.”
    Oh, and you might want to look up “au naturel” while you’re at it.

  87. MMforever Says:

    Marilyn Manson is the hottest as always without make up the rest are ugly mfs. Beyonce, Miley Cyrus etc look worse than aliens. Whoever their partner is, they are the unluckiest bastard in the world.

  88. Jojoie Says:

    Angelina jolie looks like an alien regardless

  89. Jojoie Says:

    hahaha i agree with monkey

  90. dominick Says:

    all you women is butt ugly without makeup,,,,,christ….sombody put a bullet in winehouse already

  91. dominick Says:

    and miley do some laps!i feel you should all be booked for fraud,just wrong…my dreams are shattered.:< why god?

  92. siena Says:

    sorry just had to respond to the girl saying she’s vanessa hudgens. you spelled your last name wrong.
    thanks

  93. Laney Says:

    Thank heavens, they’re human!

  94. Cherita Says:

    OMG!! You people are so mean!!

  95. Andy Says:

    I don’t care what you guys say, Manson is attractive with or without makeup.

    A lot of these are the faces they’re making or the way they’re turned, or a bad angle. Of course people aren’t going to look good haha.

  96. god Says:

    SUCK A BIG DICK EVERYONE

  97. Forever Young Says:

    Every woman have her good and bad days even if she is a famous actress and not always she’s going to look her best.But most of the time if she takes care of herself and use a good anti-aging product she will look her best even on the worst times…

  98. lola Says:

    um. ive seen naturally hotter people in the local super market.

  99. Just me Says:

    Oh my god.. This is the worst home page I have ever seen. Not because the stars do not wear make-up, but because over the half of the stars are actually wearing make-up on the pictures! Just because they do not have all their face “painted” in make-up, does not mean they do not wear it at all.
    Many of you girls, who comment on this page – try to look at yourself and see how ugly YOU are without make-up. Most of the starts are actually beautiful without make-up, so stop the malicious comments.

  100. Alli Says:

    ALMOST all of them look better without it…most of the pictures with makeup just make them look fake as hell…

  101. The fame machine: who really keeps the wheels turning? « Unsolicitedious Rebugger Says:

    [...] And I think one of the worst things about this whole issue is that, not only are we giving some self-righteous celebrities a platform for their narcissism where they now think that because of their fame and new found opinions ideas we should feel sorry for them when they get caught breaking the law, or give a damn about what they have to say, but it is taking women’s liberation back 50 years. It is reinforcing an idea fought hard against by the likes of my grandmother that we are nothing more than what we look like and what we reproduce. It is deprecating who we are as women and quite frankly, encouraging our brains to turn into mush! At the very least it is without question setting the wrong example for our girls; we now have a generation of girls who spend far more time on their appearance than any of my generation would have even dreamed of doing at that age, and who actually believe that the made-up/photoshopped/air-brushed within an inch of their life cover girls is an accurate representation of what they look like in real life. These magazines are strangulating our idea of what is beautiful and contributing to what I think is a massive increase in body image issues; they distort reality beyond recognition yet for the unassuming and unaware it seems real. So many women young and old believe that these people they hold up in such esteem, which appear to personify the closest thing to perfection on screen or on stage, actually look the same in real life. Yet this could not be further from the truth. [...]

  102. Vic Says:

    If I like them it’s because of their personality, so I’m not gonna judge them because they don’t look like Barbies without make-up.
    … which leads me to this:
    When we grow old we’re all (most likely) going to be ugly, so if you love someone because they have a good-looking body you’re probably going to be pretty depressed at the age of 75.

  103. Mai Says:

    MM looks good on both ;]

  104. Makehater Says:

    Makeup – Fake your looks.

  105. Noel Says:

    Kristen looks lol the same, so hot.
