I have suggested to my boys that they "take a girl swimming" before becoming infatuated.
The eyes of many girls will disappear and a blotchy complexion may appear without makeup.
Eva and Katherine being exceptions in these photos...their eyes are still prominent.

I have noticed that, in person, celebrities have gorgeous skin. For example I ran into Rob Lowe once and his skin was lovelier than normal people's skin. (And he was out drinking).

That reminds me of an interview with Vince Neil of Motley Crue that I saw while he was still happily married. He was talking about his then-wife, Playboy Playmate Heidi Mark, and he joked that the first time he saw her without makeup, she looked like a whole different person. I thought it was sweet and very humanizing that he loved her even when she wasn't super-glam perfect. My greatest beauty secret for dating is to date guys that wear glasses. My ex wore them and he sure thought I looked hot in the morning...photoshop pales in comparison to a good case of hyperopia! : )

Only Katie Couric still looks cute although obviously not as pretty as when she's made up! Brooke Shields recently told Access Hollywood when asked about her beauty secrets and looking good for her age, that when people see her and other actresses they have had three hours of hair and make up,and that they don't wake up looking this way.

My old next door neighbor who was 5 years older than me was an artist and also worked as a make up artist for models in fashion shows,and she told me that most of the models looked like plain Jane's before she made them up!

I don't think they look ugly without their makeup. They just look like normal people.

They look bad without their daily make up, may be the make up has make their face skin irritate and broken their skin.
