It’s no secret that cosmetics and Photoshop are a celebrity’s best friends these days, capable of completely transforming their faces in the public eye, making them look totally different—almost unrecognizable from their natural state. Some celebrities even go a step further and opt for plastic surgery just to keep looking impressive and as beautiful as ever, as if age and aging don’t affect them. Here’s a list of celebrities who were once caught on camera without makeup. At the same time, we’ve also captured the same stars with all their touch-ups.

Yes, she’s undeniably a beautiful woman, but in this particular photo, going makeup-free likely worked in her favor. She looks like a completely different person. Obviously, she wanted to go fully natural and probably knew she’d be photographed, but this image is a perfect example of how dramatically a face full of makeup can change someone’s appearance.
