With or Without Makeup: Cindy Crawford and Other Stars Who Still Look Stunning
Lady Gaga – Poker Face
Lady Gaga is another famous singer who we can’t help but gush over. Since she debuted in the music industry, Lady Gaga has carved a niche. And her impressive following and influence reflect how much she’s achieved over the years. In 2021, she released two albums, including her remix album, “Dawn of Chromatica.”
Owning the makeup brand “Haus Labs” doesn’t stop her from sharing makeup-free selfies. And this all-natural picture from the 2018 movie “A Star is Born” may take you by surprise if you’re not used to seeing her completely barefaced. The movie highlights that she can pull off a fierce look and performance irrespective of cosmetics.
Sarah Parish – The Holiday
Sarah Parish rose to fame in the late ’90s with movies like “The Wedding Date,” “The Holiday,” and “Black Pool.” And in 2021, she played ‘Lorraine Griggs’ in the miniseries “Stay Close.” But, after spending decades watching her transform on our screens, she still blows us away with her stunning looks.
Parish has the sort of face that inspires odes and heartfelt poems, and she’s used it to her advantage in her on-screen performances. But off the set, she puts in the work to maintain her youthful physique. In a 2018 interview with “Daily Express,” Parish revealed she enjoys using products like Weleda Skin Food and Charlotte Tilbury’s range of products.
Barbra Streisand – The Barbra Streisand Album
Barbara Streisand has been active in the entertainment industry since the early ’60s. And in a classic ‘grass to grace’ twist, she made her breakthrough in the musical comedy, “I Can Get It For You Wholesale.” With over 150 million records sales worldwide, Streisand holds the title of the highest-certified female artist in the U.S, sharing the spot with Mariah Carey.
Confidence is one of the basic requirements to become a heavyweight in any industry. And Streisand has got it in spades. So while makeup remains a staple for special occasions, she’s not afraid to step out with her natural face. In 2021, she was honored at the 31st Kennedy Center Honors Awards ceremony.
Christina Aguilera – Beautiful
Christina Aguilera is a talented artist but also a muse. While she’s often credited as a driving force behind the revival of teen pop in the late ’90s, she’s also known to have influenced the artistic process of other notable musicians. And what greater proof of her iconic status than the first-ever Music Icon award, which she received at the 2021 People’s Choice Awards?
Still, on the topic of influences, Aguilera is one artiste who’s been known to preach a message of acceptance and inclusivity. When she’s off the clock, and the beauty products wiped off, Aguilera retains a softness that only emphasizes her natural beauty. And when the makeup comes back on, it only amplifies what she’d had all along.

Heidi Klum – America’s Got Talent
Heidi Klum made her start as a high-fashion model before making her acting debut. Eventually, she explored the production side of things before venturing into clothing design. We’d call her the Jack of all trades, but a Janet would be more fitting. But despite a busy schedule and other obligations, Klum never misses a chance to look good.
Whether she’s walking the red carpet or leading a “Walk for Kids” initiative, Klum always has the right look for each moment. Her clear skin and chiseled features are definitely some of her best assets. In 2021, Klum continued as the executive producer of the reality TV show “Making the Cut.”
Gwen Stefani – The Sweet Escape
If we’ve learned one thing from Gwen Stefani’s career as a singer and songwriter, it’s that she hasn’t let age stand in the way of her success. In 2020 she released “Let Me Reintroduce Myself,” the first single from her fifth album. And she followed up that introduction in 2021 with a collab with Saweetie on “Slow Clap.” Yeah, no one saw that coming.
Stefani is also proof that you can never make excuses to not look good. Though she’s admitted her love for makeup, she also reveals she makes sure to wipe it off at night before applying a moisturizer. We stan a beautiful and healthy queen.
Lisa Kudrow – Friends
Lisa Kudrow is another “Friends” alum who’s undoubtedly maintained her success and beauty over the years. After all, she has over five individual awards for her ‘Phoebe Buffay’ persona on the sitcom. And in 2021, she lent her voice to animations “The Boss Baby: Family Business, and “HouseBroken.”
In a 2019 appearance on a podcast, Kudrow revealed she’s comfortable looking her age. But if this barefaced picture of her is anything to go by, she barely needs lipstick to look young. Ironically, her Instagram account is filled with a handful of makeup-free photos. We love us a confident and good-looking actress!
Susan Boyle – Britain Got Talent
Susan Boyle took the world by storm after she appeared on “Britain’s Got Talent,” and it’s amazing that we got to watch her blossom, all thanks to her fantastic voice. And blossom seems like an understatement considering that’s she’s sold over 19 million albums worldwide.
Nothing transforms a person like fame and success, and the changes have mainly been positive for Boyle. During performances, like the 2014 Commonwealth Games, she embodies an elegance that is best witnessed than described. But she’s just as comfortable walking around in a simple outfit and a bare face. Beauty, they say, is in the eye of the beholder, and we judge Boyle to be quite the picture.
Catherine Bell – The Good Witch
Catherine Bell has played many roles cutting across various film genres. For example, she appeared in Dolph Lundgren’s action film, “Men of War,” in 1994. But she also played ‘Cassandra Nightingale’ and produced Hallmark’s “The Good Witch” and its sequels.
No doubt, one of Bell’s most notable features are her eyes. And she knows it too, which is why she swears by the Maybelline Great lash mascara. But a big part of every good beauty routine is a thorough cleanse. And Bell’s smile looks just as pretty with and without the red lipstick. In 2021, she appeared on an episode of “Home & Family” to discuss her role in the TV series “Good Witch.”
