#NoMakeup and #wokeuplikethis selfies trending started, many celebrities decided to joy in and share some photos of themselves we don’t have much chance to see. Some were unaware that NO MAKEUP means a face without a blush or eyeliner, or any kind of something that is not naturally on your face, so those won’t count. Yet some successful #nomakeup photos were shocking as celebrities who were pictured didn’t look like themselves, or to better say they didn’t look like we are used of seeing them. Here are some of the celebrities that are almost unrecognizable without makeup.

Chelsea Handler
The stand-up comedian has been posting many controversial and topless photo on Twitter, and there is no surprise her #nomakeup photo is the roughest. Not sure whether she wanted to be funny or this is her morning look, but she definitely made a point.
Demi Lovato
As the queen of #nomakeup photos, Demi Lovato did a naked, no makeup, no retouching shoot with Vanity Fair to embrace natural women body. Yet on this photo, she doesn’t look like herself and it clearly isn’t to show off with.
Nicki Minaj
This after shower photo of Nicki Minaj is a real shock. Without eyeliner, eyebrows and lash extensions, she really looks like younger and she has big beautiful eyes.
Tyra Banks
Tyra’s natural beauty is beyond any other, and there is no wonder she was the first African-American woman on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition and Victoria’s Secret Angel. Yet this photo kind off freaks me out, maybe because of her crazy eyes and facial expression, but it is definitely one of her worst.
Sharon Stone
When first seeing this photo you will definitely worry whether Sharon Stone is very ill or there is something wrong with her. Unrecognizable pale face and hairband definitely hide the natural beauty this actress has.
Katy Perry
Katy Perry, is that you? This odd photo was posted by her ex-husband Russell Brand in 2010, but it was quickly deleted. We all have those morning photos, but who on Earth would post this photo? And again at that time, he was her husband. Odd. Thank God we have some evidence she is a natural beauty, regardless of this photo.
Jessica Alba
Definitely, one of the celebrities that are gorgeous either with or without makeup, but this after-workout photo of Jessica Alba looks less attractive then we are used to. She still looks gorgeous thou.
AnnaLynne McCord
One of my favourite #nomakeup photos is the one of AnnaLynne McCord as she is showing that even celebrities can have problems with pimples and they should not be ashamed of it.
Kylie Jenner
Many people criticise Kylie Jenner for posting a #nomakeup photo with clearly some makeup on her face, the eyeliner, but the other parts of her face are makeupless. If she posted no makeup photo before she did her nose and lips, people would think she isn’t that gorgeous, but now she looks stunning.
Lady Gaga
We are more used on seeing Lady Gaga in outrageous looks (remember meat dress), but on this photo, she is unrecognizably beautiful. We would never say this is the same person, as she has naturally brown hair and her eyes are big and her face is mild. Simple beauty.
Marilyn Manson
Have you ever seen Marilyn Manson without makeup? Me neither. But it exists and it was posted by the Twitter page of the Marilyn Manson Wiki. Not sure about you, but I would never ever say this is the same person as he looks good without all of that makeup.
Adele
Woow. Not only does she have an angel voice, but Adele’s got an angelic face too. Sometimes makeup does more harm than good, and in my opinion, Adele is more beautiful without make rather than with. Comparing these two photos, I’d vote for #nomakeup.
Kate Upton
Kate Upton‘s face looks so much younger without makeup and this post-workout photo is just showing us the natural beauty of this actress and supermodel.
Taylor Swift
Not sure why Taylor Swift deleted this photo from Instagram, but she looks damn gorgeous and she is such a natural beauty among many of her qualities. The picture was captioned “I woke up like thissss (With a cat on me)” and she definitely looks beautiful in the mornings.
RuPaul
Seeing Andre Charles or better known as RuPaul without drag queen makeup and outfit is simply unrecognizable. I bet you’d never guess who the person on the left photo is if it weren’t for the right photo to explain it. PuRaul only wears his drag outfit only when he’s doing his show, yet it’s hard to imagine he would be recognized on the street without it.
Eva Longoria
Eva Longoria is definitely among those natural beauties and she knows it. She isn’t afraid of going out without makeup or posting photos on her Instagram account. In any way, she looks gorgeous.
Zoe Saldana
Zoe Saldana is famous for her movies where it doesn’t look like herself, like in Avatar or Guardians of the galaxy, but she still looked gorgeous. This is why she is so beautiful natural, and when she is not wearing makeup she still looks like she’s from the other planet. Her beauty is beyond measure and I simply love how gorgeous she looks.
Gwen Stefani
When one thinks of Gwen Stefani’s look, it is always bright red lipstick and thick black eyeliner, but she definitely wowed us when she posted a photo on her Instagram in 2016 on which she is without makeup. She looked so sweet and unrecognizable, and this was probably a turning point of her looks as she continued looking more natural.
Kesha
I absolutely love these adorable freckles on Kesha’s face when she’s not hiding them behind heavy makeup. With makeup, she looks like a star, but without it, she looks like a sweet girl next door. She isn’t unrecognizable without makeup, but she definitely looks different.
Naomi Watts
Naomi Watts dared to share a photo from her face treatment, without makeup of course, and it is very sweet that she has shown what she has to do in order to keep her face beautiful and fresh. It’s not always natural beauty that counts, sometimes we have to give our face some treatment to stay healthy.
Gwyneth Paltrow
Who would say Gwyneth Paltrow is 44. She looks so beautiful and younger without makeup, and it’s absolutely adorable to see how someone looks great with natural eyebrows and eyelashes.
Diane Kruger
Diane Kruger posted a #nomakeup selfie in 2016, showing how beautiful and natural she looks. The former supermodel added a description to the photo “#startingtheyearwithanhonestnomakeupselfieha.”
NeNe Leakes
NeNe Leakes shared very happy news on Instagram video with her fans, and of all of that excitement, she forgot she wasn’t wearing makeup. But that a bad thing at all as she looked beautiful and happy and she definitely didn’t care about her look as she had sold out two shows in North Carolina.
Lindsay Lohan
We all know Lindsay Lohan from the days she was just a sweet little girl with the cutest freckles on her face, but her life wasn’t as easy as she thought. She has so many personal issues but it is so nice seeing her having a smile on her face, and without makeup, she still reminds us of that sweet little girl she used to be.
Carrie Underwood
Haters would say Carrie Underwood looks like a mess on this no makeup photo, but how would you look like just after finishing your workout? It is absolutely gorgeous and sweet to see how even after a workout she manages to look beautiful.
Shakira
This sweet Columbian singer looks beautiful with or without makeup. Shakira is one of the celebrities that we can say didn’t age a day and every time you see her you are stunned by her beauty.
Boy George
I personally don’t like when good-looking make put makeup on their face and one of those men is Boy George. When he took Instagram to mark his 55th birthday, I was stunned by how great this man looked in the video without wearing eyeshadow.
Rihanna
As one of my favourite singer, I’m quite biased about Rihanna’s beauty. She can pull it all off, with or without makeup, and she looks gorgeous either way. Her tan, her lips and her eyes are her best features.
Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus is also one of those celebrities we know the whole life, and she had some major transformations. From an innocent child to a sweet teenager, to a badass 20-year-old, to again becoming a sweet normal and beautiful singer. She was definitely wearing more makeup when she was 16 than she does now and she definitely looks happier and more beautiful.
Gigi Hadid
Gigi Hadid is a super stunning supermodel and her face is cute without makeup. When she is wearing makeup, if it wasn’t for the show, she also puts little makeup, but still, she looks great without it.
Bella Hadid
Another stunning Hadid sister that is blessed with natural beauty. Bella is sweet and sexy at the same time, and her makeup-free photo show how stunning she really is.
Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez has that cute Hispanic face and ever since she was little she looked so beautiful. She is the one celebrity that put a smile on your face every time you see her and definitely her natural looks are the best ones.
Kim Kardashian
I know it’s hard to imagine Kim Kardashian without makeup, but everything is possible. She might be the queen of makeup, but we have to admit that she looks gorgeous either way.
Kendall Jenner
Kendall Jenner makeup motto in life in “less is more”. She is young, beautiful and her face always looks clean and fresh. She is definitely a different Kardashian member than others are, and we have to agree that she looks so beautiful without makeup.
Cara Delevingne
Cara Delevingne is never afraid to show her natural beauty which she clearly possesses, and her natural eyebrows are her mark. Thou I love how she looks with makeup, she also looks sweet and beautiful without it.
Alicia Keys
Alicia Keys vowed never to wear makeup again in 2016. She did this to point out the problem “how much women are brainwashed into feeling like we have to be skinny, or sexy, or desirable, or perfect.” She now goes on photo shooting without makeup and this makes her feel “the strongest, most empowered, most free, and most honestly beautiful.” Well done Alicia.
Amy Schumer
Simply love how Amy Schumer has no problem of making jokes on herself, she is a comedian after all, but it never occurred me how great she would look without makeup. She posted this photo as a response to a meme comparing her to WWE star Chris Jericho, but she looks so beautiful.
Sofia Vergara
Many think Sofia Vergara is one of the most beautiful woman on Earth, and I completely agree with it. She is flawless, whether she is on a red carpet, or just resting at home. Such a bombshell.
Madonna
Madonna went to many transformations since she started singing but weren’t able to see her much without makeup. Now that she’s older she makes more #nomakeup selfies.
Cardi B
Cardi B came out of nowhere and made a great career. It is hard to imagine her without makeup, but in 2017 she posted a makeup-free video where we were able to see how she actually looks like.
Priyanka Chopra
Nick Jonas is one lucky man because he married such a beauty. No wonder Priyanka Chopra was Miss of the World and I can say that Indian women are one of the most beautiful women in the world. Her makeup free relaxed photo is such a blessing.
Mariah Carey
Mariah Carey is rarely seen without makeup and it was a pleasant shock when she posted a makeup-free photo on her Instagram. We definitely forgot how beautiful she looks naturally.
Portia de Rossi
Portia de Rossi has such a beautiful face and her #nomakeup photo is just stunning.
Emmy Rossum
Emmy Rossum is also one of those celebrities where you can’t decide whether they are more beautiful with makeup or without it. She is always so glamorous, but also sweet and natural.
Sofia Richie
One of the things I don’t really like is when young people put so much makeup on all the time, you eventually forget how young they are. The same thing happens when I look at Sofia Richie who is very young and she is so beautiful and sweet without makeup, but she’s rarely seen without it, so this #nomakeup photo is a blessing.
Kaley Cuoco
Ever since her Charmed character, I loved her beautiful face, and one thing I simply love about Kaley Cuoco is how natural she is and she isn’t afraid to show it.
Lucy Hale
I love how Lucy Hale has beautiful natural eyebrows, and this shows how natural and beautiful she is. With or without makeup, Lucy is the cutest.
Jenna “Marbles” Mourey
Jenna Mourey really loves to experiment with her hair colour and makeup, but she really nocked us from our feet when she posted a video without makeup. She looked nice thou.
Bella Thorne
Bella Thorne is the inspirational celebrity that isn’t afraid to show her flaws and help her fans feel better. She always struggled with acne and eventually she opened up about it. “I’m very self-conscious and constantly feeling bad about myself. BUT I shouldn’t feel bad. It is normal to have acne. EVERY1 does!” she wrote. No matter what, she is still beautiful.
Katie Holmes
Katie Holmes is always looking flawless and beautiful, but sometimes even that kind of celebrities have bad days. This photo was taken in 2005, but even then she looked cute without makeup.
Katie Holmes, again!
2013 photo shows us how celebrities are also humans. This photo was taken after her split from Tom Cruise and judging by the photo, she definitely had some rough time.
Geena Davis
Geena Davis looks stunning and always at the point. Her beautiful red hair stunning looks are her mark, but she also has one of those days where you just want to be yourself. Once she admitted to Oprah that she had a low self- esteem when she was younger, but that it all changed with time. “I like myself more, and I feel better about myself. It’s just 100 per cent different,” she said.
Courtney Love
Courtney Love always takes care of her skin and she takes her makeup at night. Even though she is 54 she looks like she hasn’t got any wrinkles. Once she admitted how she has “genetically good skin” and how “people in my family can become overweight, but they don’t wrinkle. I’m blessed that way.”
Jennifer Love Hewitt
Jennifer Love Hewitt took some time off the screen and dedicated herself to the family and children. She is now returning to Fox’s hit drama 9-1-1, but not long time ago she was pictured in casual, makeup-free, street style. She looked so natural and great, and we can’t wait to see her on the television.
Meghan Trainor
The “All About That Bass” singer is a body-confident role model for many women, but she admitted she had a rough way up to what she is now. Even though she had little confidence, she has proven us she became a strong woman, with or without makeup after posting a photo on her Instagram. Many should definitely look up to her.
Kristen Bell
Even though Kristen Bell always has little makeup on her face, mostly foundation, a little blush, and some mascara, we were able to see her without makeup and she looks beautiful either way.
Ashley Tisdale
Ashley Tisdale has her very own makeup collection, but she definitely prefers wearing zero makeup. She looks younger than you think and she isn’t afraid to show it. She posted a photo to mark her birthday, writing: “Usually a woman doesn’t reveal her age. But because I look so young I feel great saying tomorrow I’m turning 31!” with hashtag #nomakeupselfie.
Sarah Paulson
Sarah Paulson is always slaying red carpets, but sometimes there are just days where she relaxes and puts her hair in a ponytail, with little or no makeup. We are not surprised seeing her like that and she definitely can look good whether she is red carpet ready, or not.
