Singers always put their best face forward with a little (or a whole lot of) rock ‘n’ roll stage makeup or the help of a professional makeup artist. Ever wondered what they look like underneath all that powder and eyeliner?

Check out some of these squeaky clean famous faces!

With “Irreplaceable” beauty, 31-year-old Beyoncé looks simply stunning while fresh-faced on vacation. The singer frequently posts makeupless pictures on her well-curated Tumblr page, and no wonder–she always looks amazing!

“Just realized how dumb u look takin self pix on iPhone,” Rihanna tweeted in April 2012. Okay, you do look a little silly, maybe, Ri Ri–we see you laughing at yourself! But that certainly doesn’t detract from the 24-year-old’s fresh-faced beauty, which she can’t hide behind her hand.

Ever wondered what Lady Gaga meant by “born this way”? Well, here’s exactly what she was born with, as she displayed in a stripped-down shot posted on Twitter shortly before her 26th birthday. No feathers, flames, or filet mignon in evidence? Beautiful!

Taylor Swift may be ranked amongst the most beautiful musicians out there, but the 23-year-old Grammy darling still employs a skilled makeup artist. Without her usual false eyelashes, heavy eye shadow and crimson lip, Swift looks much plainer than her public image. With fair features and a spattering of freckles, she’s still the pretty girl next door while makeup-less—and one you might actually have the guts to talk to.

44-year-old Faith Hill is undoubtedly one of the long-standing beauties of country music. But the multiple Grammy winner looks almost unrecognizable without her glamorous red carpet face. Sure, every star necessitates a makeup boost plus flattering lighting, but we’d never guess this was the same person!

Few things are sexier than a pretty girl fresh out of the shower! “Does anyone know how to work this twisty towel thing?” Nicole Scherzinger asked in January 2012, while showing off her squeaky-clean complexion. We’re sure there are plenty of fans out there who’d be more than happy to assist!

Apparently Katy Perry wasn’t too fond of this photo taken by her then-husband at the beginning of 2011. Shortly after it was posted on Russell Brand’s Twitter account, the shot came down. But we think it shows a rather sweet, private glimpse at the usually lacquered-head-to-toe star–an all-natural look that most husbands out there can appreciate (even if their wives don’t!).

“Ok don’t judge my hair I just woke up,” Miley Cyrus tweeted at the end of July…accompanied by a picture posed next to her dog. Not sure if she meant that as any sort of a statement–but, she looks anything but doggy in the makeup-free shot, which displays her delicate features at an angle fans almost never get a chance to see.

Demi Lovato has been extraordinarily open with fans about her struggles with body image, so it’s no wonder that the 20-year old singer/actress/X Factor judge was willing to keep it real and share a shot of herself sans makeup in April. She not only looks pretty–no surprise there–but also happy and healthy, too!

Shortly after country star Sara Evans impulsively posted this makeup-free shot on Facebook at the end of last July, she began receiving hundreds of approving comments–and, tens of thousands of likes. “I’m going on stage tomorrow without makeup!” the 42-year-old mother of three enthused, after checking out her near-perfect slate of positive reviews.
