Life in quarantine has given us more time to spend with our bare skin than ever before, and we’re loving seeing these candid and very real celeb selfies that show us skin as it is – beautiful in all its forms. After all, it’s not often we get the chance to sneak a peak at the bare faces of celebs so often, and these real-life selfies are so relatable RN!
1. Kourtney Kardashian

The Kardashian’s practically coined the term “full glam” so it was a welcome change to see the eldest sister, Kourtney Kardashian, strip it back for a makeup-free selfie.
2. Gwyneth Paltrow

Gabrielle is another celeb who’s been serving up relatable content during lockdown, and we’re SO here for it! From talking about her natural hair growth to working on her skincare glow-up, which as we can see from this beautiful selfie, is working overtime!
4. Zoe Kravitz

Our quarantine routine has been a combination of Gwyneth and her sheet masks and Zoe and her wine-filled moods… It’s all about balance, right?
5. Yara Shahidi

Styling our hair during lockdown has become one of our weekly self-care rituals so we can definitely relate to Yara and her new-do confidence.

If 2020 was a selfie, this would be it – a year’s worth of sweats, tie-dye, eye masks, and endless tea…
7. Bella Thorne

For the last two years, Bella has taken her followers on her skincare journey, sharing her experience with adult acne and the products and treatments that have soothed her skin. We love how candidly she shares breakout-pictures, which just serves to remind us that we all get breakouts.
8. Nikita Dragun

In the words of Nikita Dragun, inspired by the bombshell Marilyn Monroe, “If you don’t love at me 0, then you don’t deserve me at 100.” Words to live by!
9. Paloma Elsesser
The depiction of life we often see on Instagram is perfect, glitzy, and heavily filtered, or even more likely, edited. So whenever we see a celebrity share their reality, thoughts and feelings, whatever they may be, it reminds us that everyone’s human! Paloma captioned this “Feeling anxious hbu.”
10. Helen Mirren

At the age of 74, Helen Mirren is keeping it as real and relatable as anyone. She recently shared a selfie of herself first thing in the morning (she’s braver than we are) all for a very good cause. She captioned it: “In return for this pic of me literally first thing in the morning, please donate to the intensive care support. Thanks so much.” The link directs you to England’s Intensive Care Society, which is providing necessary ventilators for COVID-19 patients.

Adding “I thank those who continue to make this world go round and sacrifice their safety in order to make things happen. From the grocery store clerks to the packaging room employees, the health care workers, nurses, doctors, truck drivers, and everyone in between God Bless you for your commitment and service.”

19. Ashley Graham

We can’t say the same for every celeb, but every image in Ashley Graham’s weekly roundup is something we can relate to. Messy hair strands, yoga pants and slides? Accidental selfies? Back yard workouts? Check. Check. Check.
20. Kelly Rowland

This one is for all of the mothers out there – no explanation needed!
21. Bella Hadid

Escaping to our back yard for some vitamin D (with sunscreen of course) has been keeping us sane during quarantine. Plus, Bella knows better than anyone, when it comes to taking a killer selfie, lighting is everything.
22. Demi Levato

What we love about Demi’s Instagram is the variety of full-glam fierceness and no-makeup makeup realness. She recently captioned a bare-faced snap, “After posting so many glamorous pics with tons of makeup and hair pieces, it’s important to show myself, underneath it all. This is what I look like 85%-90% of the time.”
23. Laverne Cox

When you find yourself feeeeeling yourself, that moment needs to be documented, and Laverne feels that. This dance routine is straight fire! Also, is there anything that feels better than a crazy dance party when no one’s watching? We think not!
