Pamela Anderson used to be all about the glam. Now, however, she is all about showing us that less really can be more. Last October, the Scary Movie 3 actress turned heads when she attended Glamour's 2024 Women of the Year Awards in New York City wearing a glowing, little-to-no makeup look. That appearance followed another makeup-free look when the actress made headlines at the 2023 Fashion Awards

At the time of the 2023 Fashion Awards, Anderson told Elle that her reasoning for no longer wearing makeup was because of her longtime makeup artist and friend, Alexis Vogel, passing away from breast cancer. “She was the best,” she said, adding, “And since then, I just felt, without Alexis, it’s just better for me not to wear makeup.”

Describing the experience as “freeing,” “fun” and “rebellious,” Anderson explained, “Because I did notice that there were all these people doing big makeup looks, and it’s just like me to go against the grain and do the opposite of what everyone’s doing.”

Now, over one year later, the “Baywatch” star remains committed to the cause, arriving at the Golden Globes 2025 red carpet alongside son Brandon Thomas Lee with a nearly bare face. Showing off her naturally dewy complexion, bright smile and iconic blonde locks, Anderson opted for a strappy black fitted gown, and participated in the elbow-length black gloves trend that was also worn by fellow actresses Kerry Washington, Ali Wong, Janelle James and Cristin Milioti. Anderson accessorized her look with Custom Pandora Lab-grown diamonds.

And, of course, Anderson looked stunning as usual.
