Jessica Biel is a hottie all the time.

Wait. Question. Y’know that darkness around Keira Knightly’s mouth? I have that, and I have no idea what it is or how to get rid of it. Any ideas?

Hmmmm, I think saying they look better without make-up is kind of an insult.
guest
uh no.. they look pretty bad. Average at best. Keira looks like a man with long hair. Kardashian looks worn out. Just no..

They don’t look at all “breathtaking,” just normal. If anything, these pictures are just a testament to how enough flattering lighting, makeup, and digital alteration can create goddesses out of any girl.

Looks quite normal to me, but it is comforting knowing that they will step out of their house without make up on.

most of them look like zombies. jessica alba and leighton meester are still cute though.

I love Keira. She always looks beautiful, no matter what. My boyfriend’s mom thinks I look like her… which is one of the reasons as to why I love my boyfriend’s mom
@hotteayummy@xanga - Exfoliating, maybe? I’m not sure, though… it’s just an idea

Not breathtaking, just normal.

@hotteayummy@xanga - Lactic acid or TCA peels. The latter you need to do at a dermatologist though.

I think Jessica Simpson looks average and Paz de la Huerte looks about 11. But most of them look nicer.

They look like pretty girls, but they don’t have that star look.
guest
you do realize that most of these women are probably wearing some makeup, right? they just aren’t wearing the caked-on stage makeup they would for an award show and they aren’t airbrushed beyond recognition in a photoshoot.

@vain_apathy@xanga - Thank you!
That’s what I was going to say. Just because they’re not ready for the red carpet doesn’t mean they’re barefaced.
guest
@clareta@xanga - @vain_apathy@xanga - agreed!

You left out Halle Berry, Gabrielle Union, Beyonce, and numerous others who look better than most of the women on that list. That’s just my opinion though, unless someone else notices how the list was constructed.

You forgot Snooki. She actually looks better without all of that makeup on.
I think all stars look fine w/o makeup; photographers will just catch them with stupid expressions on their faces or in regular clothes when they don’t have makeup on, and that’s why they look “bad.” Makeup just adds more pizazz to their look. Most of them don’t need it though.

@ms_latina_lady2012 – Kristen Stewart looks Horrible without make-up.

@meta_k@xanga - I agree with you on Snooki, she looks so beautiful without make-up and spray tan.
