6 Times Gigi Hadid Went Makeup-Free And Looked Flawless

In a sea of gorgeous models, Gigi Hadid stands out with her piercing blue eyes and smooth, alabaster skin. It's no wonder she's one of the top-billed models in the industry, and she can thank her mom's good genes for her looks. A former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star, Yolanda Hadid graced magazine pages and walked many designers' runways back in her heyday. Now, Gigi has long been following in her footsteps, along with her sister Bella Hadid, and she's proven that her off-duty model face is just as flawless as her dolled-up looks. 

Gigi tends toward a more natural makeup look, focusing on smoking out her eyes a bit with sparkly eyeshadow or a winged liner. Given her perfect skin, it's not surprising that the model doesn't look that much different without a made-up face — despite her low-key skincare routine. "I wash my face with the cheap stuff from CVS. Whenever I run out I just go and pick whichever one I think looks the coolest or smells good," she shared with Into The Gloss in 2014, adding that she uses body cream on her face. As a famous model, she's undoubtedly stepped up her skincare game since — and the times she's gone without makeup show she doesn't need any at all to look stunning.

Only Gigi Hadid can still look amazing while working up a sweat. The supermodel shared a carousel of Instagram pics on May 2 in celebration of her birthday week, with one of them being a selfie of her going on a hot girl walk as opposed to hitting the gym. Hadid had not a stitch of makeup on but her cheeks did have a nice flush from the sun and fresh air. "Radiant joy, celebrating another year of brilliance," a fan commented.

One might expect that a model would want to get glammed up for a night out, but Gigi Hadid must have wanted a night off from makeup in 2014. Looking polished in a perfect power ponytail, a structured white blazer, and a Céline T-shirt, Hadid's style and bare face are the epitome of laid-back chic. 

Gigi Hadid proved that stars are just like us in an after-shower picture shared on Instagram in June 2023. The mom of one had her hair wrapped in a towel and was wearing a lush bathrobe. What was relatable, however, was what looked to be a bit of pimple cream on her chin. Perhaps she was staving off an impending breakout, but the rest of her skin looked as clear as day, per usual.

Holidays are meant to be all about being makeup-free, as Gigi Hadid showed in a July 2023 Instagram post. With her long blond hair loose around her bare tanned face, she looked like a goddess on the beach. During the summer, she keeps her makeup minimal and told The Hollywood Reporter that one staple is her nude-colored lipstick. "I always have it with me and I think that when you have a bronzy glow, just putting a swipe of nude lipstick on and making the whole look kind of neutral is really pretty for summer," she said.

Gigi Hadid showed off her flawless skin in a makeup tutorial for Vogue in February 2021 as she explained her skincare routine. "While I was pregnant, I really moved towards really clean products, natural, so I used a brand called Oliveda, and it's just olive tree extract, and they have everything from cleanser to moisturizer [and] oils," she shared. During the winter, however, she likes to use a thicker cream, as her skin tends to be dry. Hadid revealed that she uses toothpaste to get rid of pimples and added, "I might get in trouble for saying that, but that's what I do."

Although Gigi Hadid couldn't ride horses while pregnant, she still managed to spend some time with one while enjoying the sunshine. In an Instagram post from September 2020, the model shielded herself from the rays with a cute bucket hat, but what was even more adorable was her baby bump. As usual, she didn't need an ounce of makeup — and it would have been a shame to cover up that pregnancy glow.
