Pamela Anderson addresses no makeup look

play

Pamela Anderson is baring it all about going bare face.

The model and Baywatch alum recently opened up to People magazine about her turn to natural glam over the past two years.

“People come up to me daily; at the grocery store, on the beach, on my walks,” Anderson said in the story published May 15. “People are like, ‘Thank you so much for doing this,’” noting the look resonates with “a lot of people.”

The “Last Showgirl” actress was speaking to the outlet about her skincare brand Sonsie, which has a cult following, after she recently wore natural glam (and new bangs) to the Met Gala on May 5.

“I think that sometimes we have to come back to ourselves and peel it all the way to remember who we are, what our original thoughts are, what our dreams and aspirations are,” Anderson said about going makeup-free. “So this is all part of it, it’s coming back to who you are and wherever you are in your beauty journey.”

But the “Love, Pamela” author said she’s “not opposed to makeup,” adding that “I love glam, I love all of that” and “I love creating characters on film or in theater.”

Pamela Anderson started going makeup-free in 2023

The “Baywatch” bombshell has peeled back the layers of her personal life in recent years, seen by some fans as a revision of her previous Hollywood reputation as a sex symbol.

Her fresh-faced glow has impressed many since she started transitioning away from makeup on red carpets in 2023 (and kicked off a “natural beauty revolution,” in the words of her “Showgirl” co-star Jamie Lee Curtis).

In October of that year, she told Vogue France she hopes that she can help model the multitude of ways women can express themselves.

“I’m not trying to be the prettiest girl in the room,” she said. “I feel like it’s just freedom. It’s a relief.”

Then, at the 2024 Gotham Film Awards, Anderson told People that she hasn’t completely removed makeup from her life.

“I love to wear makeup too sometimes,” she said. “It has a time and a place. I just feel in my personal life, it just didn’t really make sense.”
