Pamela Anderson Inspires Drew Barrymore and Valerie Bertinelli to Go Makeup-Free on TV

In a recent and memorable segment of The Drew Barrymore Show, Pamela Anderson inspired both Drew Barrymore and Valerie Bertinelli to embrace their natural beauty by removing their makeup on live television. The episode, themed “Bare Is Beautiful,” saw the trio going au naturale, a move that resonated deeply with the studio audience and viewers at home.

Pamela Anderson, known for her decision to go makeup-free during Paris Fashion Week in 2023, shared her journey of self-discovery and liberation from the beauty standards she had adhered to for most of her career. She reflected on how she initially felt the need to wear stunning outfits without overshadowing them with makeup, a choice that received positive feedback and encouraged her to continue embracing her natural self.

Drew Barrymore, inspired by Anderson’s confidence, joined her in removing her makeup using micellar water and soft pads. Barrymore also took the opportunity to remove her hair extensions, humorously attributing the decision to the effects of perimenopause. Valerie Bertinelli, who also participated, expressed her comfort and acceptance of her natural appearance, saying, “I always like me. Hi, Val.”.

The segment highlighted an audience member, Linda, who at 61 years old and after several skin cancer removals, had often relied on makeup to mask her insecurities. However, inspired by Barrymore’s acceptance of her own “lines,” Linda appeared radiant and makeup-free, showcasing the empowering message of the episode.
