Celebrities Show Their Ordinary Looks During Social Distancing
We always see celebrities looking perfectly polished. Their hair and makeup is done up, outfit is on point, their bodies without an ounce of fat on them. They curate their social media pages to include only the best of the best pics, which leaves the rest of us dreaming of looking that way or living that lavish lifestyle.
Well, self-isolation has brought us all down a notch. Celebrities may still have it better, being trapped inside with mini-bars, home gym, and olympic sized pools, there’s no doubt. But they’re just like the rest of us and want to take this time to be comfortable and cozy while stuck at home.
Some celebs have taken to social media to show off their natural looks, without makeup and wearing sweat pants around the house, and it’s relatable!
1) Kylie Jenner
Kylie Jenner posted a boomerang of her without make up on and let’s be honest – she’s unrecognizable.
The make-up mogul captioned the clip pointing out how beautiful her skin looked now that she’s au-natural at home.

2) Gwyneth Paltrow
Gwyneth is working from home like many of us are! Her brand, Goop, covers almost every topic you could think of – health, kitchen, travel, and much more.
Luckily, she’s able to continue running her business from her living room, and hang out with her kids!
3) Julia Roberts
We’re used to seeing America’s sweetheart all dolled up and looking glam. But she’s leaning into the relaxing time at home, and isn’t worried about wearing make up or finding the best lighting.
She looks amazing all the same!

4) The Parks & Rec Cast
Fans rejoice: the core cast got back together to create a special episode that they’ve all recorded from their homes! Amy Poehler made the announcement looking cozy and make-up free.
Their episode is brought to us by their efforts to raise money for Feeding America.

5) Taika Waititi
Taika is the national treasure of New Zealand. He’s been making iconic tv shows in movies that are loved by Kiwis, like What We Do in the Shadows, and Hunt for the Wilderpeople.
He broke into the international film business when he directed Thor: Ragnarok and won an Academy Award for Jojo Rabbit earlier this year.
He’s known for being silly, so this photo of him at home doing some face painting with his kids comes as no surprise!
6) Billie Eilish
This young award winning artist has spent her whole career making statements about the way women are objectified in the industry. Even at her young age, she’s made some profound comments about how women can’t win and will always be given negative labels.
“The body I was born with â is it not what you wanted? If I wear what is comfortable, I am not a woman. If I shed the layers, Iâm a slut. Though youâve never seen my body, you still judge it and judge me for it. Why?â
So it’s no surprise that she’s playing with some creative looks during the lockdown. And ummmm look at that puppy!
7) Colin Jost
This hilarious SNL star has no qualms with foregoing his usually clean-shaven facefor a newer, more “isolated” look. The salt and pepper beard really helps to make him look older!
8) Leslie Jordan
I am living for Leslie Jordan’s isolation videos. He’s been posting frequently talking about everything and nothing – basically just conveying every thought we’re all having right now. Like this one, about going to the gym once the lockdown is over.
He is a treasure and we must protect him at all costs.

9) Emma Roberts
Julia Roberts’ beautiful niece, and star of American Horror Story, doesn’t need makeup to look her best!
She shared a kitchen selfie and sent her love to fans, hoping for better days like we all are.
10) Helen Mirren
At 63 years old, Helen Mirren is The Queen of cinema has had an incredible film career, starring in roles like Hitchcock, Red, and The Queen, which is fitting.
She shared this photo of herself after she’d just woken up, and didn’t just do it for the challenge, but encouraged people to donate to a Coronavirus related-cause.
“In return for this pic of me literally first thing in the morning, please donate to the intensive care support.”
11) Antonio Banderas
Antonio seems to be channelling his inner Gordon Ramsay while stuck in isolation. Which I think a lot of us are… some better than others.
I wonder if that pasta turned out to be the correct amount. It’s always impossible to tell, but he looks pretty confident!
12) Amanda Seyfried
Amanda took to Instagram with her natural look, bringing a strong “stay home” message to all her followers. And did you know her grand mother is almost 99 years old?
Who are you staying home for?

13) Victoria and David Beckham
Victoria re-posted this photo of her football star husband encouraging their fans to stay home. And not just to stay home for themselves… but for their friends, family, elderly loved ones, young children, and anyone who is immune-compromised.

14) Jessica Chastain
Jessica Chastain has had an impressive career, starring in movies like The Help (ahhh, the chocolate cake!) and Molly’s Game among other hit blockbusters.
The stunning actress took an all-natural selfie to raise awareness for National Stress Awareness Day, and noted that these last few weeks in isolation can be particularly hard on our stress levels.
Don’t we know it!
https://www.instagram.com/p/B_DMjpvBelB/
15) Ryan Reynolds
Many people don’t know this, but Ryan Reynolds is actually Canadian, he was born in Vancouver. His Instagram handle is literally vancityreynolds, so maybe you did know.
Always one to make us laugh, he posted a hilarious video encouraging Canadians (and all people) to buy a t-shirt that’s “boring as f***”.
I don’t know about you, but I’m sold.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B_C8r6fJL2Q/
16) Selena Gomez
Wearing a matching grey sweater and track pants, Selena got some candid shots while cooking in the kitchen.
When you’re cooped up and there’s nothing better to do than eat, you may as well cook those meals you otherwise feel like you never have time to make!
17) Dua Lipa
The pop singer is using self-isolation as a way to experiment with some new looks! She shared a video clip of her make-up free, with some light pink highlights in her hair.
She’s definitely using a filter… but not one of the “beautifying” kind.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B_C6hy1B_Pt/
18) Halsey
She says she feels like a dumpling and I’m not sure what it means. But dumplings are cute, so we’ll go with that. If only we could all look this beautiful when we wake up in the morning.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B_VXLs0pakZ/
19) Katy Perry
The mom-to-be has spent a significant amount of her pregnancy in isolation with her husband Orlando Bloom.
That adorable bunny costume looks so cozy that I wouldn’t ever want to take it off!
20) Tom Hanks
This national treasure was one of the first public figures to be diagnosed with coronavirus. He hasn’t been laying around doing nothing in isolation though. He hosted the first remote episode of SNL from his living room!
He has diabetes which makes him at higher risk in combination with coronavirus, but he seems to be doing well and will make a full recovery.
21) Elle Fanning
Elle is Dakota’s younger sister, and the star of movies like Maleficent and The Neon Demon.
She already rocks a natural-look most of the time, so being home and being make-up free suits her well.
In her post she encouraged her fans to support and donate to a children’s hospital.
“I support @cmnhospitals because #kidscantwaitâŚfor a cure, the curve to flatten or for an economic boost. Go to kidscantwait.org to learn more. Please DONATE to the Childrenâs Hospitals COVID-19 IMPACT FUND!!”
22) Jim Carrey
Many people have taken time in isolation to shave their heads, cut their own bangs (never do this), and making other wild and regretful grooming decisions.
Similarly, this loveable, wacky comedian has taken the opportunity in isolation to grow out his beard. But at least his is an easy fix if he decides he doesn’t like it!
By day 13 he was rockin’ the salt and pepper beard, and likened himself to the Trivago guy!
https://twitter.com/JimCarrey/status/1246509723429425154
23) Tracee Ellis Ross
The beautiful actress who co-stars in Daddy’s Little Girls alongside Idris Elba is getting creative in isolation. Will this hairstyle be the new craze? I’m not sure what it would take for my hair to do this, so kudos to her for doing… whatever this is called.
The Pippy Longstocking top knot?
24) Kevin Hart
I’ve never seen Kevin with a beard before! Everyone is getting creative with their at-home isolation looks, and this iconic comedian is no exception.
His “confessions” from home will bring you some much-needed laughs in these trying times.

25) Shakira
This woman just doesn’t age! And even at home in her jammies she looks cozy and stunning.
26) Will Smith
Will Smith, who is basically all of our dads, decided to try out a little yoga. His (actual) daughter, Willow, poked his stomach the other day which kicked him into doing a fitness class in isolation.
He shared his journey taking a virtual lesson with famous yogi Naya Rappaport. It looked intense!
https://www.instagram.com/p/B_NnHpphpzX/
27) Kate Bosworth
After making some taco tortillas from scratch, Kate shared a photo with her followers wearing nothing but maybe a little lipgloss. Still looking as fabulous as ever!
I would kill for those two differently colored eyes.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B-pdvHtpbdT/
28) Jenna Dewan
A lot of people are taking this isolation time to spend time with the families – it’s the silver lining to a tough situation! And Jenna Dewan is no exception.
When she’s not playing with her kids, she’s rocking a t-shirt about what a great mom she is, and foregoing the makeup.
29) Bella Hadid
Super Model Bella Hadid posted a make-upless selfie in the sun. Ahhh, what it must be like to be in isolation with a swimming pool.

32) Chris Pratt
Chris shared an 11 minute video of he and his wife Katherine Schwarzengger reading their children’s book. Their goal is to raise awareness and donations for multiple children’s charities that they support.
It’s a great way to entertain your kids at home if you need an 11 minute break from the chaos!

33) KJ Apa
The New Zealand-born Archie star showed off some scruff and then cut it down into different styles, asking his fans which they preferred.

She took part in the global One World broadcast, #TogetherAtHome which raises awareness and money for the WHO and front line healthcare workers.

Did you recognize Wonder Woman without her super hero costume?
This stunning beauty still looks amazing even in her cozy house wear. And those leopard print slippers look great!
36) Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift posted this photo with the caption: “Not a lot going on right now”, and we all felt that.
She also surprised some of her supporters (Swifties) with a whopping $3,000 donation for those who had made posts about struggling financially due to the virus.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B_f6_O9jIU7/
37) Justin Timberlake (and Jimmy Fallon)
The bromance between these two cannot be compared. They aren’t letting the lockdown get them down, they’re still in regular contact!
Justin has been raising money for the Feeding America initiative. He’s also reminding his fans to check in on each other – mental health is at risk during these times of separation.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B-u4Hy_hqQp/
38) Chrissy Teigan
The super model, super mom, and social media queen has never had any qualms with showing herself without any make-up on. She’s really making the most of her time indoors with her family, and is even doing manicures for her mom!
39) James Mcavoy
He has raised awareness for the doctors and nurses on the front lines who still don’t have access to safe and reliable protective Equipment. Not only that, but he’s donated ÂŁ275,000 ($340 USD) to the cause himself.
“Caring for people with coronavirus without access to proper masks, goggles, gowns and gloves put themselves and others at risk”.
40) Drew Barrymore
She has always been known for being naturally beautiful and has such a distinct look. She’s really rockin’ the no make up look while on lockdown, and has been spending a lot of time blogging!

Salma has taken this opportunity to raise awareness for the NHS (National Health Service, UK) and to thank the frontline workers who are dedicated to keeping us all safe and the stopping the spread of coronavirus.
42) Hailey Baldwin Bieber
Like many of us stuck indoors, we’re taking some time for self-care. Hailey has been working on her skin care!
She captioned her fresh-faced selfie with:
“Been diving so deep into skincare and all the different ways I can boost my skin during this quarantine. From how itâs being affected from the inside out (what I eat and drink) and from what I use to protect and nourish it on the outside. trying to keep that glow from the inside out.”
…But teach us what you’ve learned!
43) Lena Dunham
The “Girls” creator and star posted a cozy bedroom photo with the caption:
“When youâre 100% by your lonesome because you respect social distancing but youâre trying to write an extremely sexy chapter of your romance novel but also sexy stuff makes you giggle… If youâd told me ANY of this three weeks ago I would have been like âexcuse you?â.
I think we all would have said “excuse you”. It all happened so fast!
44) Mark Wahlberg
Another celebrity who’s stepping up and doing his part to help with the COVID pandemic! It’s so nice to see these stars using their influence to raise awareness and money for important causes such as these.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B_LMhicJjkH/
45) Kristen Bell
The actress we know and love from The Good Place, and hilarious rom-coms like Forgetting Sarah Marshall, is comfortable in her own skin.
Do you remember when she cried because her husband, Dax Shepherd, got her a sloth for her birthday? She wasn’t afraid to sob then, and wasn’t afraid to broadcast it out again when she talked about it on the Ellen show.
If she can do that, she can definitely handle some makeup-less selfies. She looks great!
46) Jessica Alba
The Fanstic Four hero, and star of countless rom-coms, shared her skin routine. Since we’re all in isolation and have nothing better to do, treating yourself to a little spa day here and there is the perfect way to make the most of this time alone.
We’ll be leaving the house looking just as radiant as she does (or, close).

47) Mindy Kaling
This hilarious comedian has been doing something you wouldn’t expect – making lots of friends while on lockdown.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B_aR9s2lW1e/
48) Emma Watson
The Harry Potter star and climate change activist is sending a message to her followers to stay home.
The message could not be more important right now, and for someone who has so many loved ones who are vulnerable to the illness, it’s close to her heart!
https://www.instagram.com/p/B-FlUSFJ0dg/
49) Halle Berry
“Welcome back to another #FitnessFriday, #Quarantine edition. Iâm on day 15 and my head scarf game is strong right now (who has time for a hair do?)”
That headscarf in an inspiration because honestly, washing your hair every day (or even every other day) is overrated. And that dish looks so good I may have just been persuaded to check out the keto diet. Thanks, Halle.

50) James Marsden
This handsome actor is using his fame to help raise awareness and donations for Save The Children. By reading one of the best children’s books ever written: Where the Wild Things Are at home in his cozy clothes.
His soothing voice is sure to make your kids sit still and listen in… for at least a few minutes.
Once the lockdown is lifted and life goes back to “normal”, we’ll see our famous celebrities back to their picture-perfect selves. But for now, it’s nice to see them looking human and to know we’re all #TogetherAtHome.
Please SHARE this with your friends and family.
