5 Times Bailee Madison Went Makeup-Free And Looked Flawless

Bailee Madison has had a stunning transformation since entering the spotlight as a child actor, and now she's a regular fixture in Hollywood. Known for "Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin" and "Good Witch," Madison is undoubtedly used to being made up countless times during her career. However, in 2018, she recalled going to a photo shoot and having the makeup artist be instructed to forego any product on her face, which left her feeling insecure. "I finally closed my eyes and took a breath. When it hit me... this is what my face looks like. This is me," she shared in an Instagram post at the time. Madison continued, "This has turned out to be one of my favorite shoots... and I'm so thankful to the team for encouraging me to push through those insecurities that I was too tired to push away that day."

It's clear that Madison has learned to embrace being makeup-free, as she regularly shares snaps of herself bare-faced. With her gorgeous skin and angelic features, the "Bridge to Terabithia" actor hardly needs any product, although Madison does get dolled up when she's walking the red carpet in her best outfits. Still, when she's off duty, the "Once Upon a Time" actor flaunts her natural beauty, and when she does, she always looks flawless.

Bailee Madison proved that she's embraced her natural self with a makeup-free picture that she shared in November 2019. Although she looked stunning, Madison admitted that she still has insecurities, writing, "I don't know about you but I have to constantly stop myself from comparing myself to what I see on social media. We live in a time where anything can be altered, or perfected." With skin that clear, we think Madison has no reason to ever be afraid to go without makeup.

Bailee Madison must not have been in the makeup chair yet when she shared a selfie of herself on set with a furry friend perched on her shoulder. "Me and my little pal are reminding YOU to watch episodes 1, 2, & 3 of @prettylittleliars on @hbomax !!!!!!!! or rewatch if you've seen them already, because I betttttt there's some Easter eggs you might have missed!" she told her fans. Ever the chameleon, Madison's hair was colored in a warm blond that perfectly highlighted her brown eyes and flushed cheeks.

Bailee Madison was the epitome of the Californian surfer aesthetic with her long, beachy waves and fresh face in an August 2021 selfie that she shared on Instagram. "Wrapped on the movie, repping the shirt, now gearing up for our new adventure," she wrote while wearing a black tee that read, "Play Dead." It turns out, Madison didn't have to wait too long, as she was cast in "Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin" in 2022 and went on to star in "The Hardy Boys" the following year, which just proves the natural beauty is booked and busy.

Wearing makeup on a beach vacation is totally unnecessary, and Bailee Madison seemingly agrees. In a throwback picture of her basking in the sun with mermaid hair posted in January 2022, Madison wrote, "Currently snowing where I am, so reminiscing on that one time in Mexico." A fan replied, "Why are you so pretty?! Omg I love your natural beauty!!!" 

Bailee Madison may have a busy schedule, but she made sure to catch some rays in February 2024. "[H]i guys xxx it's been a whirlwind few weeks, but can't wait to properly catch you up on things for now sending love and I hope you're doing good!!!" she told her fans on Instagram. With no makeup and her short hair in a rom-com bob, Madison looked effortlessly chic.
