I mean, if you can’t trust your own products, who can you trust?

Demi Lovato

Makeup is basically part of the celebrity job description. It amps up features that are already gorgeous, smooths over the occasional blemish, and helps cover up those long days so stars can keep that fresh, glowing look. Plenty of famous faces lean on a full beat, but Demi Lovato is not really one of them, she’s got naturally clear skin and standout features to begin with.

Sure, when she’s onstage she’ll wear plenty of products for the lights and the cameras, but off duty the former Disney actress is big on letting her skin breathe.

That kind of confidence is hard not to love, and it’s a big reason she’s stayed on top.

Kim Kardashian, Minus the Glam

Say “Kim Kardashian” and one word usually pops up right away: glamorous. We’re so used to watching her own the red carpet, fully done up in head-to-toe looks that seem to come straight off the runway, that it’s honestly hard to picture her any other way.

But here’s the thing: Kim still looks amazing even with zero makeup on. Sure, she clearly won the genetic lottery, but it’s safe to bet her solid skincare routine has a lot to do with that glow, too. So if she ever feels like skipping the signature smoky eye, she can totally get away with it.
