Pamela Anderson Is Still Gorgeous Going Makeup Free

Pamela Anderson is the ultimate bombshell beauty. The pin-up's poster graced many bedroom walls when she slipped into her notorious red "Baywatch" swimsuit in the late '80s, and she was almost as famous for her voluminous blonde locks and intense black eyeshadow as she was for her acting. But things have changed a lot since then.

Anderson ditched her heavily made-up signature look for a more natural style, and she looks more gorgeous than ever. "I've just done [makeup] and I've played with it. I've nothing against makeup, but I felt like it just looked better on me in my 20s than it did now," she told Glamour in September 2024. "I'm also trying to find myself and who I am, kind of, underneath it all and trying to peel back the layers," she added. Stripping back the glam has not only made her feel more confident, but has also inspired others to feel comfortable in their skin. Anderson told The Times two months later she'd received messages of support from others who relate to her au naturel beauty campaign. "It's a great message — we are good enough just the way we are. I have to remind myself of that every day," she said.

In November 2024, Pamela Anderson hit the red carpet without a drop of makeup. She appeared at the Governors Awards showcasing her beautiful, unlined, plump lips and glowing complexion. Anderson's brows were thin without a brow pencil or gel, and her eyes were defined despite ditching mascara and liner. "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," she told WWD in February 2023.

A regimented skincare routine is clearly one of the reasons Pamela Anderson feels so comfortable without cosmetics, and she wowed us with a bright complexion in a June 2024 Instagram video. The "Barb Wire" star applied products from her line, Sonsie, as her skin looked naturally radiant and her cheeks naturally flushed. And fans were quick to praise the star. "I truly find you to be as beautiful now, as ever before, you absolutely radiate," one person commented. We totally agree.

For Mother's Day 2023, Pamela Anderson enjoyed some casual time with her two sons, Brandon and Dylan. In an Instagram photo, the actor admired a table full of flowers. Her tan skin glowed from the inside without foundation or concealer and her eyes were just as defined as they were during her days with heavy shadow. The beauty looked genuinely happy as the trio smiled and laughed together, proving she's most certainly just as gorgeous going makeup free as fully made-up.

Pamela Anderson displayed her understated beauty at a Film Independent Special Screening of "The Last Showgirl" in November 2024. She proudly showed her natural freckles (which can be faked using self-tanner) and minor lines on her forehead with her hair pulled back into a casual ponytail. Her lips looked naturally plump and hydrated, which is quite an achievement considering she told WWD the year prior she hadn't had work done. "I don't like those injections, and that doesn't work on me," she said.

Proving how serious she is about natural beauty, Pamela Anderson showed her celebrity glow-down (which isn't necessarily a bad thing!) at Paris Fashion Week. In a Vogue France video, Anderson skipped time in the makeup chair and explained she didn't want her face to compete with the beautiful clothing. "I feel like it's just freedom. It's like a relief," she said. Anderson revealed her stunning natural skin texture, completely devoid of dark undereye circles or redness.
