A sarcastic explanation was made for the makeup-free appearance of 56-year-old model and actress Pamela Anderson. Dazed Magazine published Column in which Anderson was blamed for promoting an expensive new trend, “natural beauty.”
The authors of the publication noted that a video in which bloggers demonstrate how to use makeup and skin care products to create the look of a makeup-free or freshly washed face is now actively distributed on social networks.
As beauty trends expert Jessica Defino noted in a chat with the publication, “natural” makeup hides the work involved and the funding invested in it, and supposedly gives a sense of self-superiority to women who don’t have to try to be beautiful.
“It helps hide the fact that the things we expect from famous women are actually expensive and labor intensive. The idea is that women have a kind of ‘natural’ image that is inherently patriarchal, sexist and capitalist,” Defino said.
He pointed out that care products that provide “natural” beauty are often more expensive than decorative cosmetics. The expert also emphasized that if Pamela Anderson were not a white and conventionally beautiful woman, the media and fans would react less sympathetically to her makeup-free appearance.
Previously actress Scarlett Johansson supported Pamela Anderson decided to attend Paris Fashion Week without makeup.
