Selena Gomez Keeps It Real With Completely Natural Bare-Faced Photos
Fans called the unfiltered photos—which even included a pimple—refreshing.
Look at her now!
Selena Gomez bared her natural beauty in a handful of shots shared on Instagram.
The “Wolves” songstress opted to go makeup-free to give fans an unfiltered look at her life.
“Me,” she simply captioned the post, which also showed off her natural curls without any hair product.
In the first snap, the 30-year-old rocked a navy sweatshirt as she shot a half-smile to the camera. When we say that she kept it real real, we mean that the Only Murders in the Building actress didn’t even conceal a blemish by her nose.
Fans got a peek at her only accessory, gold hoop earrings, in the second shot, which also revealed the semicolon tattoo on her forearm. The ink is typically used as a message of affirmation, in solidarity, or to raise awareness about mental health issues, per Dictionary.com.
The third photo kept the same vibe as the first two, though this time, the star opted to stay cozy in a black Champion sweatshirt.

It’s safe to say that fans greatly appreciated Gomez’s decision not to hide behind makeup and filters, noting that it was especially refreshing to see on such a public forum where everyone always puts their best foot—or face—forward.
The compliments began rolling in immediately, with Aubrey Plaza leaving a heart-eye emoji, while Gomez’s close friend, Nicola Petz Beckham, wrote, “Most beautiful ever ????.”
Cole Walliser, the man behind the red carpet GlamBots, appreciated the non-glam vibe, writing , “Candid you the best you,” while one fan emphasized, “Beautiful inside and out ?? fantastic role model for the world.”
“Finally a celebrity who is normal, and shows [sic] that it’s ok not to be picture perfect everytime and everyday,” one fan praised, as another pointed out that even stars get acne, writing, “Pimple squad assemble.”
Gomez kicked off 2023 with an epic return to Instagram—and she hasn’t stopped posting since. From mirror selfies to sweet dates with her little sister and even some bikini boat photos from her recent vacation, Gomez is giving the people what they want.
