Pamela Anderson has been turning heads with makeup-free looks, and her recent appearance at Glamour’s Women of the Year event on Tuesday, October 8 was no exception. The 57-year-old actress dazzled in a floor-length mint green Oscar de la Renta gown, embracing her natural beauty with flowing hair and a fresh complexion. But as it turns out, before hitting the red carpet, the Love, Pamela author had one beauty brand she turned to: Sonsie Skin.
If you’re new to the minimalist, vegan brand, Sonsie Skin was founded by Anderson herself in January. “People have been asking me to do skin care and beauty products since, you know, Baywatch days, but I just was looking at it going, ‘Well, Is it sustainable? Is it cruelty-free?’ And people used to think I was crazy back then,” she told WWD at the time of launch. “I’m glad I kind of held out this long and really found the right connection…The stars aligned.”
After the event, Sonsie Skin shared a video of Anderson on Instagram, giving fans an up-close look at her radiant skin. “Our founder, @pamelaanderson, glowing inside and out at last night’s Glamour Women of the Year event,” they wrote in the caption, adding, “P.S. She’s only wearing her Sonsie Skin.” Sadly, the team hasn’t revealed the exact product or producs she used for the natural look, but we have a feeling she, at a minimum, used the Sonsie Super Serum ($64), a calming and hydrating base layer that promises glowy and rejuvenated skin.

Recently, Anderson has spoken about her commitment to going makeup-free. “I’ve just done it and I’ve played with it,” she told Glamour last month, suggesting her perspective on makeup has evolved. “I’ve nothing against makeup, but I felt like it just looked better on me in my 20s than it did now.”
“You’re going to hit a crossroads in your 50s, and you go, ‘Am I going to chase youth? Am I going to be miserable? Or am I going to be self-accepting?’” she continued. “And it’s a practice. And it’s hard to say that you’re attempting all this if you’re still doing the red carpets and the covers of magazines plastered in makeup.”
She finds going without makeup “empowering” and says, “I know it seems a little bit crazy. I’m also trying to find myself and who I am, kind of, underneath it all and trying to peel back the layers. And we’re women or whoever, anybody—what we look like underneath the mask is still good enough for a cover of a magazine.”
