Pamela Anderson has "saved a lot of time" since going make-up-free in public.
The 57-year-old actress famously started to keep things completely natural when she arrived at Paris Fashion Week bare-faced in late 2023 and admitted that while having a whole beauty entourage was "fun" in the early days of her career, she has decided to keep things more "low-key" these days.
During an appearance on “Live with Regis and Kelly” when asked what it is like to travel without a glam squad, she said: "Oh, I’ve saved a lot of time. I used to say that I spent half my life in a make-up chair!
"I mean, I loved it. It’s fun when you’re new in the business and you get all this attention. But I feel like I’ve done that and I kind of just wanted to simplify and keep it low-key."
The former “Baywatch” star is now making a film comeback in “The Last Showgirl” and admitted that while she did have a "whole team" around her while shooting, she has enjoyed being able to attend promotional red carpets and pose for magazine covers completely without make-up.
She said: "I feel like I could focus better when I did the film, too. Of course you have … there’s a whole team around you, doing that.
But in my personal life, even on red carpets and a couple of magazine covers, I’ve gotten out of wearing make-up and it’s been fun."
Anderson added that she still enjoys being made up so she can adopt a character on screen and tries to "experiment" within her own life but always goes back to showing off her natural skin.
She said: "I love glamour. I love being elegant, sophisticated. You know, I love that. But I feel like, this is just what works best to me,”.
She added: "I love make-up in a photoshoot or on a movie to play a character. But for me I feel like, even with this HD or different kind of photography, I don’t know if it makes me look better to be full face of makeup. So I’m just experimenting.“
"I try a little blush sometimes, a little lip colour, you know, sometimes. But then I kind of go back to [natural]."
