Pamela Anderson “didn’t think anyone would notice” that she wasn’t wearing makeup at Paris Fashion Week.
The ‘Baywatch’ icon caused a stir by not going makeup-free at the event earlier this year and was surprised by the reaction it generated.
Pamela told British Vogue: “I didn’t really even think anyone would notice. I was going it more for me than anything. I was just like, ‘Why am I putting so much effort into this? Why am I in a makeup chair for three hours?”
The 56-year-old actress also went bare-faced at the Fashion Awards in London last week and explained that she takes a relaxed approach when it comes to skincare.
Pamela said: “I’m not really a regimented person; it’s a couple of products.
“I have my facewash in the shower; I have to put [my products] in different places, I’m not going to sit in front of the sink and do some kind of ritual.”
Pamela was known for her eccentric fashion choices at the height of her fame during the 1990s and joked about the lasting legacy of some of her outfits.
She said: “There’s a few red-carpet moments that ended up as Halloween costumes – and I’m just going to take that as a compliment.”
Pamela has now entered a “new era” in her life and is far more confident in her own skin.
She said: “I think it’s a self-acceptance time of my life; just peeling back the layers – it’s almost like a fresh slate.
“I thought I was retired, but it hasn’t ended up that way. This is a whole new chapter.”
