Jessica Simpson Goes Makeup-Free For
Marie Claire
Jessica Simpson
Jessica Simpson has appeared make-up free on the cover of Marie Claire magazine.
The 29-year-old star - who came under heavy criticism for gaining weight last year - did the cover shoot, which is also free from retouching, in an effort to challenge pre-conceived notions of beauty.
She said: "I don't have anything to prove anymore. What other people think of me is not my business."
However, the sexy singer, who recently fronted The Price of Beauty - a documentary following Jessica as she tries bizarre beauty treatments across the world - did admit she would still get dressed up when she felt she wanted to.
She said: "If I'm in a mood to go out and feel hot and sexy, I want long hair that I can feel on my back. But I also like bed head."
Recently Jessica confessed she has changed thanks to her acceptance of her body and looks.
She said: "There's always something that I've wanted to fix because there's always somebody who looks better; that's what we always compare ourselves to.
"So I think the journey really was finding what was beautiful inside of me and knowing that it's unique and rare. And it was a very powerful journey. It has definitely changed my life."

I really like the fact that Jessica showed us the real her.(that side of her truely is beautiful beyond looks) So many women, including myself, look at the women in magazines and wonder why we can't look that good. Why age has played such a number on us. I have recently been going through what Jessica was referring to. Always trying to fix myself, change myself to impress whoever. If it wasnt my figure, it was the new wrinkles or the shape of my eyebrows or my hair style or color.. I got so caught up in it, I began loosing sight of who I really am. I looked in the mirror and didnt reconize myself anymore. Make-up was only suppose to accent and bring out beauty that was already there, and soon I was trying to look like someone else. Soon, I forgot who it was I wanted to be, who I was, and who I wanted to be. I'v e learned that beauty will only get you so far, and then its like " yeah, she's pretty, big deal' The people that count in our lives don't care about how we look because they see us for who we really are. If we lose that, really we have nothing, we are nobody.
