Catching Famous Singers Without Makeup

by Judye Patterson

We all like seeing our favorite celebrities with makeup on and dressed incredibly. As much as we love to see them all glamorous and shining we can't get enough of them in their private lives. They are normally only caught in their day to day home lives with out their makeup. Some celebrity photographers focus entirely on catching famous singers without makeup as well as models and actresses.

We are all used to seeing our favorite stars with their hair and makeup perfect. We seem to be a little shocked when we first see them without makeup. The appearance of these stars changes drastically when they are no longer in professional hair and makeup. When they are in their makeup you get the full effect of glamour from them. Without makeup they look kind of like the rest of us with the exception of a few.

Noticeable warts, discolorations and pimples are seen without them. Melissa Gilbert with out makeup looks just like the average person. She's not the only one that looks drastically different. Take a closer look at those pictures next time and you will see just how different they look.

Older actresses such as Goldie Hawn are usually shown in these photos. The ageless appearance onscreen disappears without the makeup. These actresses and singers without makeup resemble the rest of us with wrinkles and laugh lines. They have some gray when they don't get touch ups to go with the makeup.

Are you able to visualize your favorite music artist without make up? What about Kiss? You can't forget the wonderful times of all the great bands and the charming makeup. Without wearing makeup, Poison and Kiss look like very different people. Of course the fact that they are men makes it obvious that they look different without the makeup. The difference is amazing, no longer are the faces completely hidden under perfect makeup, the flaws all show. It's amazing to see Gene Simmons out of makeup, he almost doesn't look like the man in KISS! Do you recall Boy George from the 1980s? You would hardly recognize him now as that same person, since he works at a hot London club as a dance DJ and works with the Ministry of Sound. Then there is Adam Ant who used to wear a white stripe of makeup across his face. This can be a surprise to see them with no makeup on.

Celebrities without makeup make us all feel better. They help our self esteem when they are not all airbrushed and made up and on the covers of mags. Looking through magazines and seeing the models all made up can sometimes make us feel self conscience about the way we look. There isn't anything wrong with us but we forget that for a moment when looking at those pictures. That is until we see them without their makeup.

After seeing their flaws we don't feel the pressure to be so perfect. Like the rest of us, they suffer from skin conditions and acne. Without makeup on laugh lines and wrinkles become visible. Aren't you already feeling better about yourself? Oh yes. You certainly do. Now you know its not reality.

When you see a beautiful person on the cover of some glamor magazine, just smile to yourself knowing that you're just the same as they are. You don't need a professional to have your makeup look good in the morning. Allowing yourself this luxury will cause you to look absolutely incredible all hours of the day and night.
