I thought it would be nice to have a thread with candid shots of celebrities with no (or very little) make-up on their face. Many people seem to think that celebrities are somewhat superior to regular people - especially in terms of looks. This thread could help us open our eyes and see how much celebrities owe to make-up, digital retouch etc.

MAKE-UP

RETOUCH

This video for the Dove Beauty campaign clearly shows to what extent make-up and retouch can change a woman's appearance:

I hope this post will initiate an interesting discussion Please submit any pictures that you find relevant.

Before - No makeup

After - With makeup

Perfect either way

If you look again, she's wearing make-up in the first two pictures, there's only heavier make-up in the others.

Hey Mister Ball! there is already a thread like this one

star without make-up

I noticed there's a with and without makeup thread which reminds me of the thread I meant to start a while back. The photoshop enhancement thread .

I guess I'll start with one of the more famous ones. I was a fan of hers at the time so I was kindof mad initially, but don't take it so seriously now .

Woah, what a yummy girl! The picture on the right looks so fake it hurts my eyes... Yay for authenticity!

I'm not kidding, I do like her figure (in the left-side picture, that is).

BTW, Joe, I think you could have just posted it in the make-up/retouch thread... There's no need for another one IMO.

Oops, I only saw the title of the other and thought it was for makeup, but if the other covers both then fair enough . Only I just found there was already a stars without makeup without photoshop, so I'll leave it to you .

And yeah, my problem was moreso the deception than the body, they should have just made her a plus sized model instead .

THE TRANSFORMATION

BEFORE - CURRENT

Image hidden for guestsSign in to view Image hidden for guestsSign in to view

VS TOUCH *notice the breast enlargement* - VS FINISH * with tan and barbie plastic look*

So while VS asks us "What is Sexy" ... I ask "What is real" lol

This transformation is so pointless, the original was just fine. It reminds me of the Jessica Alba pics where her waist was retouched as well.

Still, this doesn't come close to the Ralph Lauren disaster
