Jan 16, 2024 by apost team

Pamela Anderson is nothing short of a beauty icon. Known for her signature voluminous blonde locks, pouty lips and razor-thin eyebrows, the star pared down all that for a bare-faced photoshoot and proved she’s just as stunning – if not more so – when she goes makeup-free.

Born on July 1, 1967, Anderson grew up in the small town of Ladysmith in British Columbia, Canada. First discovered while at a football game in Vancouver, she posed for the cover of the October 1989 issue of Playboy magazine. Her appearances in Playboy helped launch her career and led to her becoming one of the most recognizable faces in the entertainment industry.

In 1992, Anderson landed her breakout role as C.J. Parker on “Baywatch.” The show was a huge success, and her portrayal of the lifeguard became an iconic character of the 1990s. Anderson’s success on “Baywatch” led to a number of film and television roles, including the lead role in the television series “V.I.P.” and appearances in movies such as “Barb Wire” and “Scary Movie 3.”

Anderson has also been active in animal rights and environmental activism. She has been a supporter of organizations such as PETA and Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and has been vocal about issues such as animal testing and the use of fur in fashion.

Over the years, Anderson has repeatedly proven that her beauty is timeless. At 56, Anderson has embraced a bare-faced look in her photoshoots and advertisements. Keep on reading to learn more about Anderson’s journey toward embracing her natural beauty and proving to everyone that she’s more beautiful with her natural graying hair.

In February 2023, Anderson did the unthinkable for a celebrity her age – she appeared in a cover shoot without any makeup on. The stunning bare-faced photos published by Women’s Wear Daily showed off the star’s natural beauty, including her adorable freckles and glowing skin. The 56-year-old looked gorgeous and happy as she posed in outfits by Victoria Beckham and Rick Owens. 

With the photos, Anderson proved to the world she didn’t need makeup to feel comfortable in her skin, as she said as much to the outlet.

“I really feel powerful right now when everything’s very pared down. I like to see my freckles. I like when my hair isn’t done. I like just a really fresh face. I don’t like those injections, and that doesn’t work on me. I want to see what’s going to happen. … I’m accepting myself a lot more these days, and it feels great,” she told the publication. 

It’s an unfortunate truth that many women feel the need to always wear makeup to meet beauty and societal standards, which can lead to self-esteem and confidence issues. However, for Anderson, the best beauty trick she could share is being happy and brave. 

“Happiness is the best beauty trick. Being brave is sexy. Feeling the fear and doing it anyway. Fighting for freedom starts with one's own freedom. It is a condition when fighting for others freedom. It is a political statement to be happy, to be alive,” she told Entertainment Online.

She also spoke about aging with Howard Stern on his show. When asked about her thoughts on aging, she had this to say: 

“I’m not going to worry about it. We all want to look the best we can look, but I’ve never really been a big worrier about that,” she admitted.

Anderson proved she could walk the talk when she appeared completely bare-faced at Paris Fashion Week in September 2023. She dazzled onlookers and fans with her glamorous looks sans makeup and shared photos on her Instagram with the caption:

“An adventure in Paris with fresh eyes… 🤍 There is beauty in self acceptance, imperfection and love.”

Fans were inspired by Anderson’s bold choice to go makeup-free. “QUEEN!!! Thank you being such an amazing woman who encourages ourselves to be real and love us as we are!!!” one comment read, while another user said: “Always been a fan but now I’m a super fan. It’s crazy that what you’re doing would be considered revolutionary, but that’s where we are. 🔥❤️”

Among those hailing Anderson was none other than fellow actress Jamie Lee Curtis, who reposted photos of the star alongside the caption:

“THE NATURAL BEAUTY REVOLUTION HAS OFFICIALLY BEGUN! @pamelaanderson in the middle of fashion week with so many pressures and postures, and and and, this woman showed up and claimed her seat at the table with nothing on her face. I am so impressed and floored by this act of courage and rebellion.”

She walked the red carpet again without makeup in December 2023 for the Fashion Awards in London, pairing her au naturel look with a pared-down off-white suit ensemble. Fans again reveled in the star’s transformation, calling her “radiant,” “a REAL beauty” and “empowering.”

“Out of all the 90s babes i would have thought she would have done plastics surgery the most. I definitely admire her for letting herself age and not getting caught up with Hollywood!” one user remarked.

“We love a natural queen,” one user commented, as another wrote, “She is glowing and looks so at peace. That makes me so happy for her.”

On Dec. 29, 2023, Anderson posted a video of herself on Instagram showing her collaboration with a detergent brand. Notably, fans could see that the actress is embracing her graying hair, which she had dyed ever since she was young. 

“A self-care ritual…a strong cup of coffee...sometimes rosé…I play music on my record player, and just enjoy it - it has to be done - might as well make it fun @thelaundress fabric care makes it a joy too…,” she wrote in the caption.

Anderson could be seen wearing a white dress in the advertisement as she prepared her laundry for the day, which she described as meditative. 

Fans showered her with praise and compliments as she unabashedly enjoyed her natural blonde hair, which also showed some gray and silver streaks. 

“She's so gorgeous as a natural queen, I can't deal. 😍 She makes even doing laundry look good,” someone raved.

"You are the most natural, absolutely beautiful looking actress of your time ❤️. My mom & oldest sister always spoke fondly of you, and now I can say the same! I really hope you stay in this gorgeous period of growing into this beauty & allowing your body to continue metamorphosis-ing into this woman that you are!! And always have been!!” another shared. 

“I love how she is embracing aging,” a fan commented, while another said, “I just love her, she has been through alot. I feel pam is a good role model with her natural look!!”

One peek at Anderson’s Instagram account would show how dedicated the actress is to embracing makeup-free beauty and her natural graying hair. She has posted various photos of herself while feeling confident with her bare-faced look and hair, proving that women are still beautiful, no matter what their age.
