face without makeup
Cosmetic-free countenance revealed
A face without makeup is one showing no cosmetics—no foundation, lipstick, mascara, or other products.
The phrase often carries connotations of vulnerability or authenticity: She posted a photo of her face without makeup.
Going bare-faced can be framed as brave honesty or criticized as unprofessional, depending on context and gender expectations.
