Here's What Katy Perry Looks Like Without Makeup

April 2024 · 2 minute read

Offering fans insight into the contrast of her life right before and after the start of COVID-19, Katy Perry posted a photo carousel to Instagram in March 2020, the second picture showing her bare-faced at home in quarantine. "Pre-quarantine mid-quarantine," her caption read. "Hope your stay-at-home plans tonight include joining me for a beautiful and breezy episode of #AmericanIdol, taped in heavenly Hawaii back in January and February." 

Indeed, the first photo showed a fully glammed-out Perry whilst filming "American Idol" in Hawaii in January 2020, decked out in a stunning floral dress and bow-tie stiletto heels. Yet, the second (seen above) was of a bathrobe-draped Perry watching her episode at home — without a lick of makeup adorning her face. Still sporting a flushed-but-even tan from Hawaii, Perry lost the ringlets, false lashes, and bright red lipstick from the first photo for this stay-home selfie that we love. 

Her eyebrows — not filled in — still looked tamed, her big blue eyes still popped (perhaps with a little help from eyelash extensions as well) and her complexion looked blemish-free — although she protested this point to a fan who complimented her quarantine aesthetic on her post, self-deprecatingly joking, "blackheads and all baby" (per Good Morning America). Perry, pregnant at the time as we later discovered, must have also benefited from a case of the pregnancy glow!
