20 Celebrity Moms Pulling Off the #NoMakeup Thing

Alicia Keys recently stirred things up when she daredโ€”DAREDโ€”to stop wearing make-up.

โ€œTo fit in or be thought of as beautiful, you have to cover up to be a bit closer to perfect,โ€ she stated in an essay about her lifestyle change for Lenny Letter.

โ€œEvery time I left the house, I would be worried if I didnโ€™t put on makeup: What if someone wanted a picture?โ€ she wrote. โ€œWhat if they POSTED it??? These were the insecure, superficial, but honest thoughts I was thinking. And all of it, one way or another, was based too much on what other people thought of me.โ€œ

She is proud of her decision to toss out the foundation, powder, lipstick and mascaraโ€”so much so that she started a hashtag campaign #nomakeup. We mere mortals may not have the genes or the confidence to go au natural, but there are plenty of celebrities who will.
