Perrie Edwards recently posted a picture of her post-holiday glow, which saw her show off her entirely freckle-covered face.
For some this would be a surprise – Perrie’s makeup is often so on point you’d never know her beautiful secret underneath. She often hides it so well. But why?
While yes, for some freckles can indicate skin damage, for others they are also caused by genetics, meaning they are harmless and should be embraced in a bid to love the skin we’re in.
Perrie Edwards has recently embraced hers, sharing a sunkissed photo from her holiday in Mykonos showing off her freckles in all their glory.
But she’s not the only one who’s previously hidden their freckly beauty.
Celebs who hide their freckles and should embrace them:
1. Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato rarely posts a makeup free selfie on her Instagram, but when she does her freckles make her look like she sparkles.
2. Kylie Jenner
Kylie is a big lover of her makeup, being the owner of a huge cosmetics empire, so her freckles largely remain hidden for the most part.
But every now and then she posts a candid fresh faced selfie and we get to see her natural skin underneath
3. Kesha
Kesha isn’t exactly one to hide her freckles, but she looks so gorge in shots like this that her skin should definitely celebrated in a lineup like this!
In fact, she clearly loves them, regularly posting makeup free shots to remind us how beautiful her complexion is.
4. Olivia Munn
Actress Olivia Munn previously said she loves her freckles, but wants to protect her skin in case they are the result of sun damage.
‘I love my freckles. But over the past couple of years I’ve seen more come up and merge with other freckles to make large dark spots,’ she said. ‘Dark spots prevent your skin from reflecting light and gives you a dull complexion. So for the past year I’ve been diligently using @Proactiv Mark Fading Pads. I wipe my face with one every night and now my face has a more even tone and the large spots aren’t as noticeable.’
5. Lindsay Lohan
Lindsay is famed for her freckles but often tries to hide them. In fact, she once said she wanted to have her entire body lasered to get rid of every single freckle, and has also said she has a desire to bleach her skin, which is just the saddest thing.
6. Emily Ratajkowski
Turns out that under Emily’s flawless makeup and dewy skin lies a beautiful layer of freckles too.
Although hers aren’t entirely natural, she’s previously confessed she has them painted on with make up.
Uploading a shot of her look to Instagram, she wrote: ‘Thanks for the freckles @ctilburymakeup.’
7. Ashley Graham
Yass! Ashley Graham can’t do much wrong in our eyes, and posting this selfie of her freckled face was just a brilliant move for the model.
As a model, she’s used to covering up her face with camera-ready cosmetics, but she absolutely glows without them.
8. Alicia Keys
Alicia Keys is one such freckly female who’s embraced her skin after opting to ditch makeup and bear her beauty in all its glory. Love. It.
