Hey Lisa! I'm with you. A lot of this 'praising' of older women not bothering to dress for the occasion is a move to put pressure on those of us who love to look our best. This is proven by the fact that the famous women in their 20's and 30's are NOT showing up with undone hair and no make up. If younger women put on make up why shouldn't we? I believe in the phrase, 'You do you.' But your point about turning up to a big do, such as a wedding, and NOT doing your hair or looking your best (even with only lipstick) is a sign of disrespect. Personally, I think Pam looks like an old lady in many of the photos, and that's fine, for her. I am Italian and I'll be darned if I ever go without my trademark red lip! Love you lady! Kisses, Antonia in London.
She exudes confidence! I love how she’s helping to change the dialogue for women in allowing them to feel good and confident in their own skin with or without makeup!❤️
@@devineweddingbelles I’m really not sure how my comment suggests that, but no I don’t think that at all regarding it being a publicity stunt. And yes I do love how her choices can help others feel this way, since she’s in the public eye.
I remember Pamela saying in her interviews that she would go into character and be "her" back then. After her trauma healing and reclaiming herself, that character is no longer serving her. And the beautiful soul that we see now is her authentic true self. That takes courage, strength and balls! I see her as beautiful, and wise beyond her years. Truly inspiring!
I totally agree, I watched the documentary of Pamela Anderson, and all that she went through. I give her lots of kudos. That is something that takes a lot of courage to do, especially in that industry..
Her stance on animal cruelty in fashion food and beauty is her most impressive achievement. Makeup free, older face, demonstrates she's evolving as a human being, and not stuck in a 'PR' rut, simply perpetuating her original, fame/notoriety-bringing persona. As an older woman, I feel she is a role model for the non-celebrity woman, unlike soooo many out there.
At the risk of putting it too simply, I believe we all should do what brings us joy. It is simple to follow that rule. For me, dying my hair wasn't bringing me joy so I stopped! Now I have long salt and pepper hair (at 34 years old) and I feel free. If that stops bringing me joy, I will color it again. We all as women put so much pressure on each other. I love that you ALWAYS support other women Lisa. You are an inspiration ❤❤❤
YAY! I love that!!! My precious Mama has never colored her hair and is absolutely gorgeous with the salt and pepper--she wears very little makeup and I love it--I think we are all so different and we should brings us joy and makes us feel the most comfortable and confident in our own skin! Thank you!! 😊Lisa
I love a woman who is so comfortable in her own skin that she doesn't worry about what others think. Beauty comes from the inside. I am 68 and have never colored my hair. A couple of years ago, I stopped wearing mascara. I have never felt more free! False eyelashes, false hair, false nails...is, well, false.
Your absolutely right I’ve never thought of it like that ! After removing all the false stuff they don’t look like themselves ! Just be yourself ! I just enhance no false !
Her confidence and growth and maturity is what I find most beautiful about her. I can't wait to see how she continues to evolve and embrace her entire self as she ages. I hope she goes completely gray, no matter what the shade is. Go Pamela!!! Some other women who are also inspirational are Justine Bateman, Meryl Streep, and Frances McDormand. We need more positive role models for aging as women.
My mama always said, “Even an old barn looks better with a new coat of paint.” The older I get, the more appreciative I am for makeup and adding some color to my face.
It’s the ultimate rebellion I think. As a “former bombshell” to push back on beauty standards and expectations is pure courage ❤️ I don’t think I could love her more 😍
I like that she is not stuffed with fillers and botox and maybe that is what she is trying to say it's ok we are all beautiful in are own way . Some people look hideous there faces are like caricatures of them with those fillers and botox and clownish makeup and that what is passing as beautiful . Look at Pamela and Madonna no comparison. Pamela is beautiful even with out her makeup. Strong women who is not worry what others think.
Pamela Anderson writes every single day, apparently. People who write ,are probably more introspective and thoughtful. I think she’s just going through a phase of not wanting to wear make up. Of course , opinions are more about one’s perceptions than whatever they are critiquing .I think Pamela was often looking very “made up” so the contrast is severe. Thank you for this video, Lisa.
I’ll tell you what, since Covid, I’ve gone gray. I’ve gotten more compliments on my hair than I ever had on my fake blond hair. Just this week, I got out of my little pickup truck at the hardware store, and some random man said to me, “Wow! I love your hair! It’s so elegant, and pretty!” When you let your hair go, you will be surprised. I never knew the color of my hair either, but it really flatters me more than the fake blond I did. Was wearing makeup!
I agree that she has only become more fascinating over time. I love that she is her own person and makes her own choices, even if they aren’t popular. After spending a life in the spotlight and being scrutinized for my looks, I wonder how I would feel.
Right. It's horrible. Sometimes I for some reason are fed in my IG flow with sites that only do "this is what she (famous person) looks like now. Then they show a young version and then an older version, often very close up, with bad light and not the best picture of this person. The comment field are then filled with horrible comments about this person's aging. And. It is always, always only about women and their aging...I would never cope with being famous and in attention of everyones eye, in every angle, and always be judged.
I used to wait on her and Tommy in the 90's in a restaurant in Marina Del Rey. She didn't wear make up most of the time and she was still stunning. She was super nice, too.
There is a trend coming down the pike of less is more. Buying less, less consumption PERIOD. A part of that is less covering up imperfections, embarrassing your skin literally and figuratively. The realization that we’ve been conditioned to consume, consume, consume to make us look better so we feel better is a huge lie. That is another reason why Pamela’s no makeup look has resonated with people.
During Covid shutdown I was putting on a full face of makeup and my husband walked in and asked me where I was going all pretty and I said “downstairs “ 😂😂😂
She can do whatever she wants! I personally will not go gray and will makeup when I go out, especially special events, it makes me feel better. No one should have to explain why they do or do not wear makeup. I think you have the perfect take on it! 💖
"No one should have to explain why they do or do not wear makeup. " There it is. No need to explain about anything we do as Individuals. We are unique unto ourselves.
My two cents, dont let your outward appearence be where you get your self esteem from , but let it be a reflection of who you are on the inside...perhaps her overdone makeup reminds her of how superficial she once was and how much pain that life caused her, for her she needs to go to the extreme opposite for awhile to be authentically herself, learning to love herself as she is and not how society wants her to look, she tired of trying to be that person, i think she will find balance and her true self and we will see her putting more effort into looking pretty for the world again. This is her time and her terms and she needs people to see her, and thats why its important. Woman must always remember its whats inside that counts and never let anyone explot you. For the LORD sees not as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart. Xox
I worked in a town where we had many celebrities who lived and shopped . They always dressed down and never wore makeup. Most people wouldn’t even recognize them. One actress told me because she is always so made up for work that she hates putting anything on her face when she’s not working. It seems to be a very common feeling amongst actresses.
Thought provoking and interesting discussion. I’m a 59 year old woman who celebrates all there is about being female. I love my daily ritual of hair, makeup and fashion. I colour my hair and have no intention of going grey, ever. That said, I am a “you do you and I’ll do me” kind of girl. If it makes you feel good, do it. I do find that an increasing group of women try to shame you if you don’t embrace the no makeup, grey goddess look and that upsets me. Why do women feel the need to judge? How does my attention to makeup etc. threaten them? I’m me, this is what makes me feel like me. I agree 100% that when you are invited to an event by or for someone, you should always take the time to be the best version of yourself that you can. For me, it’s a sign of respect and a nod toward what the person means to you. Thanks for the thoughtful conversation.❤️
I wear makeup and fragrance when I’m home and I live by myself and still do it each and everyday. That’s just me. I wish women would stop telling others what they should do and what they should look like. Please just do your thing and let others do theirs
Paris Fashion week is a global phenomenon event. It celebrates human inspiration and creativity through design, fashion and style. Now throw in the statement of global celebrity Pamela dressed in haute couture but without her renowned made up face! This is art! And the result is the debate going on world-wide on this simple 'statement' act. It is truly a masterpiece, that we are all admiring or critiquing and interpreting from our own perspective. This is ART. Bravo! Such fun! 👏❤
Maybe instead of missing her makeup, which is the least true thing about her, you could embrace her empathy and sense of obligation to the world she lives in. She launched the Pamela Anderson Foundation in 2014, an organisation dedicated to “human, animal and environmental rights” that has supported causes like Help Refugees, Cool Earth and the California Wildlife Centre.
I love! It!!!!! I rarely wear makeup anymore! Don’t like it don’t look :) I feel like I’m trying too hard when I pile on the makeup now. To each their own tho always!!!
Pam seems like a sweet girl with or without makeup, and at the end of the day that’s all that really matters. She will be remembered for being a bombshell, but with a BIG heart.
I am 56 and I think Pam Anderson is also 56. If you can't go around without make up now you never can. I am happy for her choice, whether it is a strategy to get more people to like her or if it is just how she feels. I want women of all ages to do what they love in life. 56 we are running out of time so I say do it now. I wear makeup sometimes and sometimes I don't and I feel beautiful either way. It depends on my activity for the day. you like wearing makeup all the time wear it Lisa. Making ourselves happy is what matters.
I feel much like you do about all of it! I personally love wearing makeup and doing my hair and despite what some people feel about it I do it for ME! I’ve been wearing makeup for over 50 years and will be having my hair highlighted to the end lol. That said if Pamela is going makeup free and grey for HERSELF then that is a wonderful thing. I have not seen her around town since the “no makeup event” however the few times I’ve seen her around prior to that, she was wearing daytime makeup. ( I live about 20 minutes away and have family in her area) love your videos and your whole vibe 🇨🇦💜
I absolutely love how insightful you are! I am introverted, and a lot of times can’t find the words about how I am feeling about something, and then you will comment and say exactly what I’m thinking! I agree that I think there are women out there who are happier when people do things the way they think they should. Also, I do like you with red lipstick, 😊 …but I love your nude lipsticks also! So happy you do so many videos! I look forward to each and every one. I feel like it’s my very own therapy session. In a good way! ❤
I must admit I like her best with makeup but I admire her confidence and do not think it was a publicity stunt in the beginning. I wonder now if she is using it.
I love your TH-cam chats, Lisa. Your videos about self- care, confidence, and romanticizing every day aspects of life are my favorite. I admire your ability to speak your truth in a confident, kind way without discrediting the various perspective of others. 🤩
I’m happy for her if she goes gray because it’s bad for your health to use all those hair dyes, plus gray hair is beautiful. I say we should all be allowed to be ultra made up if we want or to be ultra natural if we choose without being criticized. I think she respected the event she went to because she was dressed up, had her hair done and looked beautiful. She reminds me of beautiful French women who are much more natural than we are.
I believe being true to yourself is doing what is right for you and what makes you feel good. If this means going makeup free so be it. If it means wearing more makeup that is also a way of being true to yourself. Pamela Anderson is a very smart woman.
To each her own I would say regarding the desire to wear makeup or not. I think with Pamela, her roles and public life focused so heavily on her appearance to the point of objectification at times that I assume it would feel very freeing for her to go makeup free. However, the interesting outcome of her not wearing makeup is that the focus is still on her appearance! I appreciate these type of thoughtful videos Lisa.
I love Pamela Anderson also and have always admired her over the years. I think it is wonderful that she is so confident to go without makeup. She has also stated that she hasn't totally given up on makeup but rather will wear it on her own terms. Her confidence is so inspiring! I feel my best with makeup so it would be difficult for me to go make-up free. I will always be a fan of Pamela's - makeup or no makeup - it is her heart which is important. ❤️
Pam is beautiful she's not fighting her age she's decided to embrace her age and she will do it gracefully. I mean come on girls we've seen some of these stars today and what they've done, some have overdone it and instead of looking good and rested it looks like they've been embalmed. lolzzz Well, it's true.
I don’t wear makeup. I live in Aspen Colorado and I am always outdoors and active. I agree that everyone should do what makes them happy and authentic. I am also happy when I see women showing that natural skin (makeup free) is beautiful and sexy!!! Ageism in the beauty industry is so harsh and cutting!!! In summation, you are correct!! Be authentic and do exactly what you want!!!
This won’t be popular, but here it goes. How many men are criticized for not wearing makeup to special events? How many men are judged by how they look rather than what they do? I love wearing makeup, when I feel like it. It’s why I enjoy watching videos like yours. To learn how to use the least makeup to best advantage. And I totally understand that makeup can help us all feel more confident. But all the really important things in life, and in our own development, come from within. And, in that sense, whether or not to use makeup seems a trivial choice.
I believe Pamela also said when her makeup Artist of 30 years passed away of breast cancer she just felt without her in her life anymore she just didn’t feel the need to wear makeup anymore.She said her passing put perspective on beauty in more perspective.I believe it’s her part of mourning that loss and that chapter in her life.Happy New Years Lisa!🫦
She did look and feel her best. Wow so we have to wear makeup to show respect. Why can’t we just Be clean dress nice. Is Paris fashion week everyone gets attention who was she stealing the show from?
This article just came out and she explained why no makeup and embracing the fresh face look: in an interview with Elle, she disclosed that her makeup artist, Alexis Voguel, tragically lost her life to breast cancer in 2019. As a result, Anderson explained that it feels more appropriate for her to forgo makeup without Alexis by her side.
Hi Lisa, I have reached a point in my life that most days all I do is minimal makeup. I do a tinted moisturizer with a lipgloss and eyebrows done most days. When I do have a date night with my husband will do simple makeup 😊 Blessings my dear 🥰💕
Lisa I feel the older I get just turned 59 last week. I’m leaning toward way less makeup and actually get more compliments that I look younger. Happy New Year Lisa ❤❤❤
Hi Lisa! Happy New Year😊 I enjoyed this video so much. I really like when you have a good old discussion video. And I have to say, you’re my “Pammy”! When I found your channel years ago I was hooked! You ARE so inspiring to me. I’m 58 and finally figuring out who I am, my style, what I like and don’t like and not feeling bad about it. You have helped me so much!! You stay who you are, You Are Fabulous! Love ya, Cindy💗🌻
Pamela lives down the road from us. If you understood what growing up on the island is like, you would understand Pamela. It’s an island that is extremely aware of the preservation and love of nature, animals, natural wholesome food, natural slow living….a good uninfluencial life.
I agree Lisa. I don’t feel fully dressed without my makeup. I can go out without it but I don’t feel comfortable. I feel like I forgot to put something on.
I love Pam's no makeup look (and yours). Beautiful. I also love the made up look! Honestly, I recently tried the no makeup look and was told I looked beautiful!! I'm just happy doing what I feel like and being a girl ❤❤!
There are just some women who look fabulous without makeup and then there are some who just don’t. If I had a perfect complexion… I would never wear makeup. We all need to do what makes us feel confident!! Just saying 👍❤️
We all get to choose. That's the bottom line. I am continually stunned that people think they have the right to express their opinions about how someone else looks. Of course, we have our thoughts, but I was taught to keep those to myself. What someone else does is their business, not mine. When I was a little kid, I was so pale that my mom started putting a bit of blush on me so that my teachers would stop asking if I was sick! haha! I grew up "putting my best face forward", and that means putting makeup on, but it is always and always will be just for me. I also have always felt that putting some effort towards my appearance is not only a sign of respect for who I am seeing and where I am going, but it's also a matter of self-respect. I have been teased over the years for taking the time to put makeup on. It's my choice. All that said, let's be kind to one another.
I feel we can do it all… beautiful with or without makeup! I do believe there is judgement in the public eye, but the only person you need to please is yourself! Feeling confident and comfortable is imperative. Personally, I have always felt uncomfortable going out of the house without some makeup! It’s definitely a confidence thing. ❤
I'm 54 in two weeks time and I'm a brunette but I've started having grey hairs or silver as i prefer to call them and i hate it. I would never go out without makeup on because doing my face makes me feel better about myself and more confident. I absolutely love Pamela and you Lisa. I love your videos and all the hard work you put into your channel. You look so stunning and you inspire me to look my best. Thank you Lisa 💕 💕💕
Pam is an icon. Personally, I don’t like the heavy black eyeliner look. I think it makes her look harsh. I love the no makeup look, or minimal make up. It shows her freckles. Anyway, I’m just happy she is back, and seemingly happy
I love makeup, that’s why I watch Lisa’s channel for years now! I love that Pamela seems to have no more desire to be the prettiest girl in the room! Feeling confident in who you are and how you look is a great accomplishment! I know why I put on makeup - to feel good, but sometimes the reason has to do with social expectations .
I absolutely love what she's doing. I think she wore all that makeup before because she was in "character" and there's nothing wrong with that. Look at her when she was discovered, she was very natural so I think this is really who she is. We can't expect anyone to stay the same forever because we shouldn't. We all must evolve and change with however WE want to, not how others perceive we should be. I love Pamela and I applaud her for being real and authentic but it doesn't matter what any of us think about it because its her business and hers only. Great video Lisa and I really liked hearing your thoughts on this subject because as we age (I'm 53) I think we should talk more about how we should do what we want and not worry at all what others think because in the end it really doesn't matter.
I have always adored and appreciated Pamela Anderson's feminine appearance. Her makeup was always done to perfection and in such a way that showcased her delicate features. It was a bit surprising for me to see her attend such a high profile event sans her iconic look that we all know. That said, I get her point about enjoying herself and her time in Paris rather than spending time concerned with her appearance. I feel it shows she is comfortable in her own skin, and exudes self confidence. Looking at her pictures on Instagram shows a more down-to-earth lifestyle that nurtures and embraces who she truly is and for that I applaud her.
No one tells or pressures Pamela Anderson. She makes her own decisions and has never followed the crowd. She is showing the world she loves her aging face and doesn’t need to hide behind a mask of makeup! This is a true trendsetter and a supporter of women.
I think she is beautiful and makeup no makeup she looks great. I don’t wear makeup everyday and most the women in my life are the same. Idk why people expect her to wear makeup everyday and every time she goes out. Good for her for doing whatever she wants.
Ok I making another comment. I guess I’m just not reading a lot into it. I personally don’t think she is doing it for a bad reason but I do think there is a motive behind going to events without makeup but it could be as simple as just letting people know it is ok. I do think she will go back to wearing makeup for events in the future. Women are beautiful and we are all different and I enjoy seeing the differences.
Almost her whole life she is a sex symbol. Let's be honest, we have no idea how a life like that would be. I can understand that she is tired about the pressure to present herself like this the rest of her life. And don't forget, she's never been the prettiest girl in the room. She is and was THE sex symbol of a whole generation.
Most women I know wear little to no makeup since the pandemic. I can’t stand to wear heavy makeup anymore. I love Pam’s natural look. I think she looks great.
See, I am the opposite from Pam. I’ve never worn makeup much, so now that I’m 48 and starting to wear it, people are like, “you look great!” 😂 Reverse psychology….
I applaud Pamela Anderson's confidence. For me, personally, I wouldn't feel "complete" without doing my makeup, especially if I were getting dressed up for an event or special occasion. It would be like wearing no makeup on my wedding day!! I KNOW I look better and feel better with makeup on. I also enjoy wearing makeup. It makes me feel "pretty." It's a personal choice, and you have to do what makes you feel good inside. Whether you choose to wear makeup or not, it's about feeling good about yourself, not about what others think.
PA seems very comfortable with herself. She has always been a strong advocate against animal cruelty, I have seen several interviews over the years and she comes across as very genuine and "in on the joke" - she's laughing first. I'm never going gray but I do think some women wear it beautifully and happy girls are the prettiest!
Very interesting observations - there are a lot of interpretations to think about. I saw the video of her going to the show without make up and part of it was shocking at first but she so totally owned it that it became a passing thought. She was so playful and fun and her smile is so youthful - I think she looks adorable and charming : ) her personality shines no matter what!
First off Lisa, I would like to say you're beautiful and this is a great subject! You know that saying "For everything there is a season" Well this is a season for Pam Anderson. She has done the bombshell and she finds herself in a new season of life that she needs to explore. I commend her for that. Perhaps she wants to be known for more than her sex appeal and be taken more seriously. I'll tell you, I was very impressed when I saw her on the View speaking about her friend Julien Assange. She handled herself with elegance under a barrage of tough questions. That is a brutal panel and she was very well spoke. I commend this season of her life and when she's done with this season, perhaps she'll employ a 5 minute makeup routine. Anyway you look at it, she's a beautiful human inside and out.
I absolutely agree with you.. showing up to an event or someone’s party the opposite to what we normally do, is basically another way of taking the spotlight and turning it on ourselves especially if it’s not something we normally do.
I just think she’d look better with a little bit of makeup. I thought this the second I saw her without. That’s just my humble opinion. To me she looks much older without any.
I love these deep, thinking videos from you. You do them the best! You are totally right about rolling with the punches in life. Pam was always sweet, natural and a family girl. Her persona was something totally different. She’s being true to herself what a rare quality that is!
You summed it up and analyzed the situation perfectly. Frankly, I don't have a thing to add...you spoke about it so fittingly that you were describing my thoughts before I even formed them in my own head. THANKS.
I’m 53 now and I rarely wear makeup since I retired 3 years ago. It has been liberating. I had a heart attack a month ago and it really put things in perspective for me. The biggest compliment that I received that horrible, scary day is the cardiologist said he did not believe me that I was 53 and had to check my chart for my DOB. My point is do what makes you feel your best and happy. Life is just to short.
It funny your wanting to be so much like her ( in a good way she’s a nice girl) mine was Tippi Hedron when I saw her in the Birds back 8n the 80’s I live the 60 style

Hey Lisa! I'm with you. A lot of this 'praising' of older women not bothering to dress for the occasion is a move to put pressure on those of us who love to look our best. This is proven by the fact that the famous women in their 20's and 30's are NOT showing up with undone hair and no make up. If younger women put on make up why shouldn't we?
I believe in the phrase, 'You do you.' But your point about turning up to a big do, such as a wedding, and NOT doing your hair or looking your best (even with only lipstick) is a sign of disrespect. Personally, I think Pam looks like an old lady in many of the photos, and that's fine, for her. I am Italian and I'll be darned if I ever go without my trademark red lip!
Love you lady!
Kisses,
Antonia in London.
Hi Lisa,
Thank you replying. Perhaps I’m overlooking the earring link. I still don’t show it.
@@summiec.5610 Ah!! So sorry!! They are so cool! amzn.to/3NRjky7 I'll add, thank you!! 😊Lisa
Got it now! Thank you Sis!
😅😅
She exudes confidence! I love how she’s helping to change the dialogue for women in allowing them to feel good and confident in their own skin with or without makeup!❤️
I agree, I LOVE her comeback!! ❤ Lisa
You do?
It sounds like you think it’s a publicity stunt
@@devineweddingbelles I’m really not sure how my comment suggests that, but no I don’t think that at all regarding it being a publicity stunt. And yes I do love how her choices can help others feel this way, since she’s in the public eye.
I remember Pamela saying in her interviews that she would go into character and be "her" back then. After her trauma healing and reclaiming herself, that character is no longer serving her. And the beautiful soul that we see now is her authentic true self. That takes courage, strength and balls! I see her as beautiful, and wise beyond her years. Truly inspiring!
Agree! 💖 Lisa
I totally agree, I watched the documentary of Pamela Anderson, and all that she went through. I give her lots of kudos. That is something that takes a lot of courage to do, especially in that industry..
Her stance on animal cruelty in fashion food and beauty is her most impressive achievement. Makeup free, older face, demonstrates she's evolving as a human being, and not stuck in a 'PR' rut, simply perpetuating her original, fame/notoriety-bringing persona. As an older woman, I feel she is a role model for the non-celebrity woman, unlike soooo many out there.
I admire her for being so real!! ❤Lisa
Agreed!
Yes! 🙌
Bottom line is everyone should do them and not judge others. The applause we should give to anyone is when they are authentically themselves.
Agree! 💗 Lisa
Amen! Live and let live.❤
Pamela is just a good person and beautiful inside and out! Plus she's an advocate for animals, so that makes her even cooler❤❤
I think she is very genuine, & kind hearted ❤ Lisa
At the risk of putting it too simply, I believe we all should do what brings us joy. It is simple to follow that rule. For me, dying my hair wasn't bringing me joy so I stopped! Now I have long salt and pepper hair (at 34 years old) and I feel free. If that stops bringing me joy, I will color it again.
We all as women put so much pressure on each other. I love that you ALWAYS support other women Lisa. You are an inspiration ❤❤❤
YAY! I love that!!! My precious Mama has never colored her hair and is absolutely gorgeous with the salt and pepper--she wears very little makeup and I love it--I think we are all so different and we should brings us joy and makes us feel the most comfortable and confident in our own skin! Thank you!! 😊Lisa
I am 67 and I still put makeup on every day because it makes ME feel better. 😊
Same here at 66.
I love how she can be a bombshell, or be makeup free and look like a woman from a Renaissance painting.
SO true!!! ❤ Lisa
I love a woman who is so comfortable in her own skin that she doesn't worry about what others think. Beauty comes from the inside. I am 68 and have never colored my hair. A couple of years ago, I stopped wearing mascara. I have never felt more free! False eyelashes, false hair, false nails...is, well, false.
Not false, FUN!
Thank you!! 💗Lisa
Your absolutely right I’ve never thought of it like that ! After removing all the false stuff they don’t look like themselves ! Just be yourself ! I just enhance no false !
Her confidence and growth and maturity is what I find most beautiful about her. I can't wait to see how she continues to evolve and embrace her entire self as she ages. I hope she goes completely gray, no matter what the shade is. Go Pamela!!! Some other women who are also inspirational are Justine Bateman, Meryl Streep, and Frances McDormand. We need more positive role models for aging as women.
My mama always said, “Even an old barn looks better with a new coat of paint.” The older I get, the more appreciative I am for makeup and adding some color to my face.
It’s the ultimate rebellion I think. As a “former bombshell” to push back on beauty standards and expectations is pure courage ❤️ I don’t think I could love her more 😍
I like that she is not stuffed with fillers and botox and maybe that is what she is trying to say it's ok we are all beautiful in are own way . Some people look hideous there faces are like caricatures of them with those fillers and botox and clownish makeup and that what is passing as beautiful . Look at Pamela and Madonna no comparison. Pamela is beautiful even with out her makeup. Strong women who is not worry what others think.
Pamela Anderson writes every single day, apparently. People who write ,are probably more introspective and thoughtful. I think she’s just going through a phase of not wanting to wear make up. Of course , opinions are more about one’s perceptions than whatever they are critiquing .I think Pamela was often looking very “made up” so the contrast is severe. Thank you for this video, Lisa.
Thank you so much!! I agree! 💗 Lisa
I’ll tell you what, since Covid, I’ve gone gray. I’ve gotten more compliments on my hair than I ever had on my fake blond hair. Just this week, I got out of my little pickup truck at the hardware store, and some random man said to me, “Wow! I love your hair! It’s so elegant, and pretty!” When you let your hair go, you will be surprised. I never knew the color of my hair either, but it really flatters me more than the fake blond I did. Was wearing makeup!
That's awesome, Dana!! Glad you love it--thank you!! 😊Lisa
I agree that she has only become more fascinating over time. I love that she is her own person and makes her own choices, even if they aren’t popular. After spending a life in the spotlight and being scrutinized for my looks, I wonder how I would feel.
I agree, she was SO disrespected back then---I love that now she has told her story and living the life she loves 🥰 Lisa
Right. It's horrible. Sometimes I for some reason are fed in my IG flow with sites that only do "this is what she (famous person) looks like now. Then they show a young version and then an older version, often very close up, with bad light and not the best picture of this person. The comment field are then filled with horrible comments about this person's aging. And. It is always, always only about women and their aging...I would never cope with being famous and in attention of everyones eye, in every angle, and always be judged.
I used to wait on her and Tommy in the 90's in a restaurant in Marina Del Rey. She didn't wear make up most of the time and she was still stunning. She was super nice, too.
There is a trend coming down the pike of less is more. Buying less, less consumption PERIOD. A part of that is less covering up imperfections, embarrassing your skin literally and figuratively. The realization that we’ve been conditioned to consume, consume, consume to make us look better so we feel better is a huge lie. That is another reason why Pamela’s no makeup look has resonated with people.
Good Point!! Thank you!! 😊Lisa
My mantra: Less is more in ‘24!!
During Covid shutdown I was putting on a full face of makeup and my husband walked in and asked me where I was going all pretty and I said “downstairs “ 😂😂😂
I honestly don’t think wearing makeup or not wearing makeup is that deep. Do what makes you happy
She can do whatever she wants! I personally will not go gray and will makeup when I go out, especially special events, it makes me feel better. No one should have to explain why they do or do not wear makeup. I think you have the perfect take on it! 💖
"No one should have to explain why they do or do not wear makeup. " There it is. No need to explain about anything we do as Individuals. We are unique unto ourselves.
I agree! Thank you, Debbie!! 💖 Lisa
My two cents, dont let your outward appearence be where you get your self esteem from , but let it be a reflection of who you are on the inside...perhaps her overdone makeup reminds her of how superficial she once was and how much pain that life caused her, for her she needs to go to the extreme opposite for awhile to be authentically herself, learning to love herself as she is and not how society wants her to look, she tired of trying to be that person, i think she will find balance and her true self and we will see her putting more effort into looking pretty for the world again. This is her time and her terms and she needs people to see her, and thats why its important. Woman must always remember its whats inside that counts and never let anyone explot you.
For the LORD sees not as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.

Thank you!! 😊Lisa
I worked in a town where we had many celebrities who lived and shopped . They always dressed down and never wore makeup. Most people wouldn’t even recognize them. One actress told me because she is always so made up for work that she hates putting anything on her face when she’s not working. It seems to be a very common feeling amongst actresses.
I think it's utterly refreshing what Pam is doing!!!
Thought provoking and interesting discussion. I’m a 59 year old woman who celebrates all there is about being female. I love my daily ritual of hair, makeup and fashion. I colour my hair and have no intention of going grey, ever. That said, I am a “you do you and I’ll do me” kind of girl. If it makes you feel good, do it. I do find that an increasing group of women try to shame you if you don’t embrace the no makeup, grey goddess look and that upsets me. Why do women feel the need to judge? How does my attention to makeup etc. threaten them? I’m me, this is what makes me feel like me. I agree 100% that when you are invited to an event by or for someone, you should always take the time to be the best version of yourself that you can. For me, it’s a sign of respect and a nod toward what the person means to you. Thanks for the thoughtful conversation.❤️
Thank you so much, love this! 💖 Lisa
Thank you ! What a beautiful response, I completely agree with everything you said .
I wear makeup and fragrance when I’m home and I live by myself and still do it each and everyday. That’s just me. I wish women would stop telling others what they should do and what they should look like. Please just do your thing and let others do theirs
Paris Fashion week is a global phenomenon event. It celebrates human inspiration and creativity through design, fashion and style. Now throw in the statement of global celebrity Pamela dressed in haute couture but without her renowned made up face! This is art! And the result is the debate going on world-wide on this simple 'statement' act. It is truly a masterpiece, that we are all admiring or critiquing and interpreting from our own perspective. This is ART. Bravo! Such fun! 👏❤
Maybe instead of missing her makeup, which is the least true thing about her, you could embrace her empathy and sense of obligation to the world she lives in.
She launched the Pamela Anderson Foundation in 2014, an organisation dedicated to “human, animal and environmental rights” that has supported causes like Help Refugees, Cool Earth and the California Wildlife Centre.
Thank you!! 😊Lisa
I love! It!!!!! I rarely wear makeup anymore! Don’t like it don’t look :) I feel like I’m trying too hard when I pile on the makeup now. To each their own tho always!!!
I agree, you have to do what makes you feel best--your authentic self!! 🥰 Lisa
Pam seems like a sweet girl with or without makeup, and at the end of the day that’s all that really matters. She will be remembered for being a bombshell, but with a BIG heart.
I am 56 and I think Pam Anderson is also 56. If you can't go around without make up now you never can. I am happy for her choice, whether it is a strategy to get more people to like her or if it is just how she feels. I want women of all ages to do what they love in life. 56 we are running out of time so I say do it now. I wear makeup sometimes and sometimes I don't and I feel beautiful either way. It depends on my activity for the day. you like wearing makeup all the time wear it Lisa. Making ourselves happy is what matters.
I love makeup and won't leave home without it. I makes me happy. You're makeup looks really good. It's just the perfect amount
I feel much like you do about all of it! I personally love wearing makeup and doing my hair and despite what some people feel about it I do it for ME! I’ve been wearing makeup for over 50 years and will be having my hair highlighted to the end lol. That said if Pamela is going makeup free and grey for HERSELF then that is a wonderful thing. I have not seen her around town since the “no makeup event” however the few times I’ve seen her around prior to that, she was wearing daytime makeup. ( I live about 20 minutes away and have family in her area) love your videos and your whole vibe 🇨🇦💜
I absolutely love how insightful you are! I am introverted, and a lot of times can’t find the words about how I am feeling about something, and then you will comment and say exactly what I’m thinking! I agree that I think there are women out there who are happier when people do things the way they think they should. Also, I do like you with red lipstick, 😊 …but I love your nude lipsticks also! So happy you do so many videos! I look forward to each and every one. I feel like it’s my very own therapy session. In a good way! ❤
Thank you, Janice! ❤ Lisa
I must admit I like her best with makeup but I admire her confidence and do not think it was a publicity stunt in the beginning. I wonder now if she is using it.
Love this. What a thoughtful and insightful video. Back in the day Pam wrote a column for ‘Jane’ Magazine and it was so good!
She is very interesting to me, I love her interviews--her sense of humor, and quick wit! 🥰 Lisa
I love your TH-cam chats, Lisa. Your videos about self- care, confidence, and romanticizing every day aspects of life are my favorite. I admire your ability to speak your truth in a confident, kind way without discrediting the various perspective of others. 🤩
I’m happy for her if she goes gray because it’s bad for your health to use all those hair dyes, plus gray hair is beautiful. I say we should all be allowed to be ultra made up if we want or to be ultra natural if we choose without being criticized. I think she respected the event she went to because she was dressed up, had her hair done and looked beautiful. She reminds me of beautiful French women who are much more natural than we are.
I feel women should be allowed the grace to look how they want at any age.
I believe being true to yourself is doing what is right for you and what makes you feel good. If this means going makeup free so be it. If it means wearing more makeup that is also a way of being true to yourself. Pamela Anderson is a very smart woman.
I agree on all of that!! 💗 Lisa
To each her own I would say regarding the desire to wear makeup or not. I think with Pamela, her roles and public life focused so heavily on her appearance to the point of objectification at times that I assume it would feel very freeing for her to go makeup free. However, the interesting outcome of her not wearing makeup is that the focus is still on her appearance! I appreciate these type of thoughtful videos Lisa.
Wow, that is just another interesting take on this!! Thank you, Michelle! 🩷 Lisa
I love Pamela Anderson also and have always admired her over the years. I think it is wonderful that she is so confident to go without makeup. She has also stated that she hasn't totally given up on makeup but rather will wear it on her own terms. Her confidence is so inspiring! I feel my best with makeup so it would be difficult for me to go make-up free. I will always be a fan of Pamela's - makeup or no makeup - it is her heart which is important. ❤️
Pam is beautiful she's not fighting her age she's decided to embrace her age and she will do it gracefully. I mean come on girls we've seen some of these stars today and what they've done, some have overdone it and instead of looking good and rested it looks like they've been embalmed. lolzzz Well, it's true.
I don’t wear makeup. I live in Aspen Colorado and I am always outdoors and active. I agree that everyone should do what makes them happy and authentic. I am also happy when I see women showing that natural skin (makeup free) is beautiful and sexy!!! Ageism in the beauty industry is so harsh and cutting!!! In summation, you are correct!! Be authentic and do exactly what you want!!!
This won’t be popular, but here it goes. How many men are criticized for not wearing makeup to special events? How many men are judged by how they look rather than what they do? I love wearing makeup, when I feel like it. It’s why I enjoy watching videos like yours. To learn how to use the least makeup to best advantage. And I totally understand that makeup can help us all feel more confident. But all the really important things in life, and in our own development, come from within. And, in that sense, whether or not to use makeup seems a trivial choice.
I know, it's just not fair, men definitely get a pass on this one--grey hair, wrinkles, and all! ❤ Lisa
I believe Pamela also said when her makeup Artist of 30 years passed away of breast cancer she just felt without her in her life anymore she just didn’t feel the need to wear makeup anymore.She said her passing put perspective on beauty in more perspective.I believe it’s her part of mourning that loss and that chapter in her life.Happy New Years Lisa!🫦
I love that you show up as your authentic self, makeup and all, regardless of how others may want you to look. Same with Pam.
Thank you so much! 🩷 Lisa
Exactly.
She did look and feel her best. Wow so we have to wear makeup to show respect. Why can’t we just Be clean dress nice.
Is Paris fashion week everyone gets attention who was she stealing the show from?
I think she is focusing on her inner self and that to me is inspiring.
This article just came out and she explained why no makeup and embracing the fresh face look:
in an interview with Elle, she disclosed that her makeup artist, Alexis Voguel, tragically lost her life to breast cancer in 2019. As a result, Anderson explained that it feels more appropriate for her to forgo makeup without Alexis by her side.
That’s beautiful.
Thank you!! 😊Lisa
Hi Lisa, I have reached a point in my life that most days all I do is minimal makeup. I do a tinted moisturizer with a lipgloss and eyebrows done most days. When I do have a date night with my husband will do simple makeup 😊 Blessings my dear 🥰💕
Sounds perfect to me!! Thank you, Elisa! 💖 Lisa
Makeup is a choice so if you don’t want to wear or do it’s a choice. I don’t judge women for doing them.
I agree! 💖 Lisa
Lisa I feel the older I get just turned 59 last week. I’m leaning toward way less makeup and actually get more compliments that I look younger. Happy New Year Lisa ❤❤❤
I love that she is that brave. That is what women really look like. Men and everyone else are used to seeing us all done up but isn’t real.
Makeup or no makeup she's beautiful and gorgeous 😍😍🥰🥰
Agree 💖 Lisa
Hi Lisa! Happy New Year😊 I enjoyed this video so much. I really like when you have a good old discussion video. And I have to say, you’re my “Pammy”! When I found your channel years ago I was hooked! You ARE so inspiring to me. I’m 58 and finally figuring out who I am, my style, what I like and don’t like and not feeling bad about it. You have helped me so much!! You stay who you are, You Are Fabulous! Love ya, Cindy💗🌻
Just stay as you are because I really look up to you. I have always felt the same way, just be myself.
I say to each their own. Just a different season of her life I suppose.
Pamela lives down the road from us. If you understood what growing up on the island is like, you would understand Pamela. It’s an island that is extremely aware of the preservation and love of nature, animals, natural wholesome food, natural slow living….a good uninfluencial life.
I agree Lisa. I don’t feel fully dressed without my makeup. I can go out without it but I don’t feel comfortable. I feel like I forgot to put something on.
I love Pam's no makeup look (and yours). Beautiful. I also love the made up look! Honestly, I recently tried the no makeup look and was told I looked beautiful!! I'm just happy doing what I feel like and being a girl
❤❤!
There are just some women who look fabulous without makeup and then there are some who just don’t. If I had a perfect complexion… I would never wear makeup. We all need to do what makes us feel confident!! Just saying 👍❤️
LOVE your philosophy and take on this! I personally live in a suburb and work from home and always wear makeup because that's how i FEEL MY BEST!
We all get to choose. That's the bottom line. I am continually stunned that people think they have the right to express their opinions about how someone else looks. Of course, we have our thoughts, but I was taught to keep those to myself. What someone else does is their business, not mine. When I was a little kid, I was so pale that my mom started putting a bit of blush on me so that my teachers would stop asking if I was sick! haha! I grew up "putting my best face forward", and that means putting makeup on, but it is always and always will be just for me. I also have always felt that putting some effort towards my appearance is not only a sign of respect for who I am seeing and where I am going, but it's also a matter of self-respect. I have been teased over the years for taking the time to put makeup on. It's my choice. All that said, let's be kind to one another.
I feel we can do it all… beautiful with or without makeup! I do believe there is judgement in the public eye, but the only person you need to please is yourself! Feeling confident and comfortable is imperative. Personally, I have always felt uncomfortable going out of the house without some makeup! It’s definitely a confidence thing. ❤
I'm 54 in two weeks time and I'm a brunette but I've started having grey hairs or silver as i prefer to call them and i hate it. I would never go out without makeup on because doing my face makes me feel better about myself and more confident. I absolutely love Pamela and you Lisa. I love your videos and all the hard work you put into your channel. You look so stunning and you inspire me to look my best. Thank you Lisa 💕 💕💕
You cracked me up when you said, Damn, Lisa looks rough with no makeup! Love you Lisa!
Pam is an icon. Personally, I don’t like the heavy black eyeliner look. I think it makes her look harsh. I love the no makeup look, or minimal make up. It shows her freckles. Anyway, I’m just happy she is back, and seemingly happy
I love makeup, that’s why I watch Lisa’s channel for years now! I love that Pamela seems to have no more desire to be the prettiest girl in the room! Feeling confident in who you are and how you look is a great accomplishment! I know why I put on makeup - to feel good, but sometimes the reason has to do with social expectations .
I absolutely love what she's doing. I think she wore all that makeup before because she was in "character" and there's nothing wrong with that. Look at her when she was discovered, she was very natural so I think this is really who she is. We can't expect anyone to stay the same forever because we shouldn't. We all must evolve and change with however WE want to, not how others perceive we should be. I love Pamela and I applaud her for being real and authentic but it doesn't matter what any of us think about it because its her business and hers only. Great video Lisa and I really liked hearing your thoughts on this subject because as we age (I'm 53) I think we should talk more about how we should do what we want and not worry at all what others think because in the end it really doesn't matter.
I have always adored and appreciated Pamela Anderson's feminine appearance. Her makeup was always done to perfection and in such a way that showcased her delicate features. It was a bit surprising for me to see her attend such a high profile event sans her iconic look that we all know. That said, I get her point about enjoying herself and her time in Paris rather than spending time concerned with her appearance. I feel it shows she is comfortable in her own skin, and exudes self confidence. Looking at her pictures on Instagram shows a more down-to-earth lifestyle that nurtures and embraces who she truly is and for that I applaud her.
I agree!! I am happy for her 🩷 Lisa
No one tells or pressures Pamela Anderson. She makes her own decisions and has never followed the crowd. She is showing the world she loves her aging face and doesn’t need to hide behind a mask of makeup! This is a true trendsetter and a supporter of women.
Very well said! Thank you!! 😊Lisa
I think she is beautiful and makeup no makeup she looks great. I don’t wear makeup everyday and most the women in my life are the same. Idk why people expect her to wear makeup everyday and every time she goes out. Good for her for doing whatever she wants.
Ok I making another comment. I guess I’m just not reading a lot into it. I personally don’t think she is doing it for a bad reason but I do think there is a motive behind going to events without makeup but it could be as simple as just letting people know it is ok. I do think she will go back to wearing makeup for events in the future. Women are beautiful and we are all different and I enjoy seeing the differences.
Almost her whole life she is a sex symbol. Let's be honest, we have no idea how a life like that would be. I can understand that she is tired about the pressure to present herself like this the rest of her life. And don't forget, she's never been the prettiest girl in the room. She is and was THE sex symbol of a whole generation.
Most women I know wear little to no makeup since the pandemic. I can’t stand to wear heavy makeup anymore. I love Pam’s natural look. I think she looks great.
Thank you!! 😊Lisa
See, I am the opposite from Pam. I’ve never worn makeup much, so now that I’m 48 and starting to wear it, people are like, “you look great!” 😂 Reverse psychology….
I hope you feel beautiful and confident no matter what!! 🥰 Lisa
I applaud Pamela Anderson's confidence. For me, personally, I wouldn't feel "complete" without doing my makeup, especially if I were getting dressed up for an event or special occasion. It would be like wearing no makeup on my wedding day!! I KNOW I look better and feel better with makeup on. I also enjoy wearing makeup. It makes me feel "pretty." It's a personal choice, and you have to do what makes you feel good inside. Whether you choose to wear makeup or not, it's about feeling good about yourself, not about what others think.
Did she also get her breast implants removed? A lot of celebrities and influencers seem to be going more natural.
We 50yr old ladies should enjoy the right to go out into the public w/o makeup and not be ashamed! 😊❤
PA seems very comfortable with herself. She has always been a strong advocate against animal cruelty, I have seen several interviews over the years and she comes across as very genuine and "in on the joke" - she's laughing first. I'm never going gray but I do think some women wear it beautifully and happy girls are the prettiest!
Very interesting observations - there are a lot of interpretations to think about. I saw the video of her going to the show without make up and part of it was shocking at first but she so totally owned it that it became a passing thought. She was so playful and fun and her smile is so youthful - I think she looks adorable and charming : ) her personality shines no matter what!
I agree, she has a childlike quality I love---happiness 🩷 Lisa
I read that Pamela stopped wearing makeup after her make up artist died from breast cancer. Love her too!
Lisa I put makeup on if I’m staying home, good on Pammy for doing as she pleases. But I’m with you I love makeup 💄
First off Lisa, I would like to say you're beautiful and this is a great subject! You know that saying "For everything there is a season" Well this is a season for Pam Anderson. She has done the bombshell and she finds herself in a new season of life that she needs to explore. I commend her for that. Perhaps she wants to be known for more than her sex appeal and be taken more seriously. I'll tell you, I was very impressed when I saw her on the View speaking about her friend Julien Assange. She handled herself with elegance under a barrage of tough questions. That is a brutal panel and she was very well spoke. I commend this season of her life and when she's done with this season, perhaps she'll employ a 5 minute makeup routine. Anyway you look at it, she's a beautiful human inside and out.
I am 70 and I am agree. I hear where are you going because I get dressed. I do it for me. ❤
It’s not for me, I feel better with makeup, but if you feel great makeup free I say go for it. Always do what makes you feel good, but show respect.
I absolutely agree with you.. showing up to an event or someone’s party the opposite to what we normally do, is basically another way of taking the spotlight and turning it on ourselves especially if it’s not something we normally do.
Love what you said, "Some people want us to look like what they want us to look like.." I get it. xo from Toronto
I just think she’d look better with a little bit of makeup. I thought this the second I saw her without. That’s just my humble opinion. To me she looks much older without any.
I love these deep, thinking videos from you. You do them the best! You are totally right about rolling with the punches in life. Pam was always sweet, natural and a family girl. Her persona was something totally different. She’s being true to herself what a rare quality that is!
You summed it up and analyzed the situation perfectly. Frankly, I don't have a thing to add...you spoke about it so fittingly that you were describing my thoughts before I even formed them in my own head. THANKS.
Great vid. Pls link your earrings!
She needs minimal makeup, but the no makeup thing is not a good look… sorry……a little color helps us all.
Turning 50 miraculously gives you the courage to shed many things. Love it. Love her.
It's been good for me, too! 💖 Lisa
You whole being your aura inspires me so much ; and won’t change anything I love your videos love your voices your positivity❤
I’m 53 now and I rarely wear makeup since I retired 3 years ago. It has been liberating.
I had a heart attack a month ago and it really put things in perspective for me.
The biggest compliment that I received that horrible, scary day is the cardiologist said he did not believe me that I was 53 and had to check my chart for my DOB.
My point is do what makes you feel your best and happy. Life is just to short.
I think that you should feel good about yourself no matter what you wear or don't wear. It is about us being comfortable and happy as we are.
Pamela Anderson is human! ...Some People are hooked on labeling beautiful women that are strong!❤ she has survived HATE definitely
It funny your wanting to be so much like her ( in a good way she’s a nice girl) mine was Tippi Hedron when I saw her in the Birds back 8n the 80’s I live the 60 style
