Pamela Anderson, known for being the ‘Baywatch’ Blonde Bombshell back in the 90s, is embracing a new bare version of herself by going makeup-free.
Fans were shocked by the 56-year olds decision to strip herself bare for the public to see during a new fashion ad campaign. Anderson took her talents and posed for Proenza Schouler’s new spring collection for 2024.
In the photos shared by the brand, Anderson poses in a variety of different outfits. However, despite being dressed up for the photoshoot, Anderson decided to strip herself bare and opted for a makeup-free look, leaving Anderson looking fresh-faced in every shot.
While her lips looked a little glossy, Anderson let her freckles pop in the clean-faced pictures, where she wore items such as a ribbon mesh dress ($3,990) and a monogram cashmere sweater ($990).
The brand also made sure to get a few closeups of Anderson, including a photo with her arms up wearing a red dress, a color that’s, of course, tied to her “Baywatch” past.
Of course, it’s no surprise that the star is continuing her fashion girl reign. In August, she became the face of Pandora jewelry, sparkling makeup-free next to the brand’s lab-created diamond pieces.
Anderson also turned heads back in October 2023, as she attended Paris Fashion Week with no makeup. This sparked many shocked comments from Jamie Lee Curtis, Scarlett Johansson, and a few other celebrities.
However, Anderson says her intentions were never to cause a stir, in fact, she’s sworn off makeup for the most part of 2023 after showing off her natural beauty on the digital cover of WWD in February.
“I didn’t come to Paris Fashion Week and think: ‘I’m not going to wear any makeup,’” she told Vogue France back in October. “Something just came over me and I was dressing in these beautiful clothes and and I thought, ‘I don’t want to compete with the clothes. I’m not trying to be the prettiest girl in the room.”
While it’s hard to think that the blonde bombshell wouldn’t be the prettiest girl in the room, it appears that ditching this extra step in her routine has given her a new outlook on life.
“I feel like it’s just a freedom,” Anderson added in the same interview. “It’s like a relief.”
Anderson’s message of being true to one’s self, should be a lesson for many women. Less is more in some cases!
