Selena Gomez shares makeup-free photos on Instagram

Selena Gomez pleasantly surprised her fans with a recent Instagram post featuring a series of makeup-free photos.

In one close-up black-and-white shot, captioned simply with “Real,” Gomez showcased her natural beauty, with visible freckles on her nose as she wore her hair down.

Her friend Nicola Peltz Beckham praised her genuine beauty, while Lily Collins described her as stunning both inside and out.

Camila Cabello also chimed in with an admiring comment. Gomez appeared relaxed in the photo, wearing a casual gray robe with unstyled hair, and one eye closed.

The Rare Beauty founder has been vocal about her struggles with self-esteem, discussing her journey towards self-compassion during a SXSW panel titled “Mindfulness Over Perfection: Getting Real On Mental Health” in early March, inspired by her 2022 Apple TV+ documentary “My Mind & Me,” which focused on mental health.
