Jessica Simpson set out to challenge the concept of beauty ever since she ran out of other career options endured that chili cookoff mom jeans debacle last year.

Her boldest step yet? Going makeup-free in Marie Claire.

“I don’t have anything to prove anymore,” she said, and not because we know she’s sexual napalm in the bedroom. “What other people think is not my business.”

The Price of Beauty star says what prompted her to show “the real her,” wearing no makeup at all and even air-drying her hair for the shoots, is a simple desire.

Inspired by her very own A Beautiful Me initiative, which encourages women to be comfortable in their skins, Jessica Simpson wants to prove real beauty lies within.

That’s totally what made her a celebrity, and what she’s promoted in music, TV and film vehicles throughout her career too. The importance of inner beauty.

No retouching. No regrets. Still low cut.

Not that she’s done mixing things up. “If I’m in a mood to go out and feel hot and sexy, I want long hair I can feel on my back. But I also like bed head,” she says.
