Posters of Baywatch star Pamela Anderson hung on the walls of many teenagers in the 90s. The lifeguard’s ample bosom, wasp waist, long legs and charming smile excited men’s imaginations. Girls, however, aspired to be like the blonde beauty.
It seemed that Pamela Anderson would be ready to do a lot to maintain her sex symbol status for as long as possible. However, today the actress and model is not afraid to appear without makeup.
Is this an attempt to attract the public’s attention again or an acceptance of herself and her age?
It’s time to finally be yourself
In September 2023, the 56-year-old star of the series “Baywatch” was spotted at the presentation of the new spring women’s collection of the brand Isabel Marant as part of the Fashion Week in Paris. Pam came to the event in a yellow dress made of textured fabric, midi length and sleeveless. The look was complemented by beige sandals.
But the attention of those around was riveted not on the dress, but on the actress’s face. The complete absence of makeup, natural, free-flowing hair, and the thinnest arched eyebrows, like those of the 1930s movie star Jean Harlow, amazed the public.
“I don’t do my makeup at home, so why should I do it at Paris Fashion Week? I didn’t really think anyone would notice, but I’m glad it sent out a positive message,” the actress says.
The actress was next the subject of discussion at the British Fashion Awards 2023. She walked the red carpet in a spectacular outfit. The look was made up of Victoria Beckham items.
Pam was wearing a snow-white outfit – wide jeans, a top and a jacket. And again, not a drop of makeup. This time her hair was tied in a low ponytail.
Pamela Anderson previously had a photo shoot a la naturel. She was photographed without hair and makeup, and in the photo you can even see her cute freckles. After all, many, including me, did not even suspect that she had them. The actress claims that she likes aging.
“I’d rather show my freckles… Getting old is fun. It’s a relief. At a certain age, we even look younger and fresher without makeup. This is me, and I’m perfectly happy with the woman I am now. It’s a new world, and I’m grateful for all the love in my life.”
Pamela prefers to spend money and time on skin care. She does not get “beauty injections” and complex plastic surgeries, unlike her colleagues in the industry.
We all know how Demi Moore, in pursuit of youth, went under the surgeon’s knife and then shocked her fans by changing beyond recognition. After yet another plastic surgery, actress Meg Ryan’s face began to resemble a pillow, and her smile – the grin of the villain Joker. Kim Basinger also became a victim of a plastic surgeon – after the operation, her face became like a motionless mask.
Looking at these women, it is hard to imagine that they would dare to appear in public without makeup. Pamela decided not to repeat the mistakes of others. She likes to go against the rules and do everything the other way around. She calls her new image ” free and cheerful .”
“Getting old is fun. It’s a real relief.”
The actress admitted that she regularly gets massages and oxygen therapy for her face. The 56-year-old woman does Pilates. But if she has a busy work schedule, she limits herself to just stretching or walking.
The actress always has a rose petal spray in her fridge, which perfectly moisturizes her skin. And in her purse there is a lip balm, which helps her out both in summer and winter. Pamela makes her own rosehip oil and uses it instead of applying makeup.
Pam doesn’t worry about her appearance. It is known that she took the first step towards naturalness back in 2016, when she reduced her breasts and began to appear in less revealing outfits.
“It doesn’t bother me at all. We all like to look our best, but I’ve never been too concerned about it.”
And when her favorite makeup artist died in 2019, Anderson decided to give up makeup forever, making it her calling card.
I think it’s impossible not to admire Pamela. She’s not shy about appearing in public without makeup and still looks amazing. Of course, many readers will now argue that it’s all about plastic surgery and expensive procedures.
However, I will allow myself to disagree with this. Healthy and clear skin is painstaking work on yourself: proper nutrition, healthy lifestyle, regular care. With age, Pam’s beauty has not disappeared, it just became a little different. In the photo, I see an attractive and self-confident woman who has nothing to be ashamed of. Pamela dresses according to her age and does not try to look younger, so she looks fresh and well-groomed.
“I can’t wait to see myself old. I want to watch my hair turn grey.”
Anderson has blossomed in her years. She has always strived for perfection and has finally found it.
“I feel like I’m just at the beginning of my life. I’ve been through a lot, but I’m free of it now. And what comes next will be beautiful. And it will be on my terms.”
Pamela Anderson does not hide wrinkles, freckles, pigment spots and other skin imperfections. She is no longer afraid of gaining extra pounds, so she does not give up sweets and no longer exhausts herself in the gym. The actress left noisy Los Angeles and moved to her native Canada.
“It’s time to go back to the roots. It all started here /in Canada/, and I want to start a new stage of my life here. Everything in the world is cyclical,” Pam explains her decision.
In one of her interviews, Pam admitted that she felt as if a weight had fallen off her shoulders. In Canada, she found long-awaited peace. It’s hard to believe, but the once fatal beauty grows vegetables herself, harvests, makes pickles, and cooks jam. She also loves walking dogs, lives a measured life, and considers herself absolutely happy. Maybe that’s why she looks amazing, despite her age and lack of makeup?
