Stars Without Makeup
I’ve found that people love to pick up tabloids that include pictures of stars without makeup. The public has some kind of fascination with seeing stars at their worst. Perhaps it’s because they like to know that without gobs of makeup, the stars don’t look that much better than everyone else.
Many Web sites and magazines feature stars without makeup sections. They present these photos as sort of a “gotcha” to the stars. These shots are taken when stars are walking to the grocery store, leaving the gym or relaxing on the beach. They’re usually taken when the star is puffy or sweaty. The more flaws the camera can expose, the better the picture.
These photos tend to hone in on older stars, such as Goldie Hawn. When these stars are photographed in photo shoots for magazine covers, they look great. They look much younger than they are in real life. Part of this is due to the fact that makeup artists can work wonders on the stars. Also, professional photographers are extremely well versed in hiding flaws and using lighting to make a person look as attractive as possible.
They’re just like us, stars do need makeup just like we do to cover up flaws. They need concealer to cover up facial blemishes such as red spots and zits. It’s amazing to look at the stars without cover-up. Some stars, such as Alicia Silverstone, have moles or warts that are never visible on-screen. However, they stick out like a sore thumb when the star isn’t covered up.
Eye makeup is a great way to accentuate stars’ eyes. Average women also use eye makeup to make their eyes standout. If you look at a star who you’re used to seeing without eye makeup, it’s amazing to see how small her eyes are. Often stars who we consider to have big, beautiful eyes, look like they have beady little eyes.
For many people, it’s nice to know that starts without makeup are just as rough looking as average people without makeup. Next time you see a beautiful star all glammed up, think of stars without makeup and you won’t feel so bad about your own appearance.
