Triptii Dimri proves that barefaced beauty is made for the beach

Going barefaced may leave one conscious, but sometimes it can be the best thing you can do for your skin. You may live lipstick and breath blush but every once in a while, it's best to step back from your cherished bronzers and glosses. Taking a break from makeup can be a good thing. Don't believe us? Believe Triptii then as the Bulbul actress opted to skip makeup and embrace a bare face for her latest beach trip. In the photos, she looks sun-kissed with a natural flush of colour – a result of a day well spent at the beach. The Qala actress makes a strong case for skipping makeup, especially while vacationing. She carried a bare face with ease while her hair framed her face in loose, tangled curls, courtesy of the sea breeze. Isn't a glow like that without any makeup right out of our Pinterest skincare mood-boards? 

Just like the popular Bollywood actress, TikTok is also keen on hopping on the barefaced skin bandwagon. The 'No Makeup Challenge' and the 'Bare Face Trend' are currently trending on the app with more than 40 million video posts on this trend. Our favourite beauty influencers and gurus are also ready to go and embrace the challenge of stepping foot out of the house with no foundations and concealers in place. 

No matter how much your makeup products claim to be easy on your skin, at the end of the day, they provide an additional layer on over your skin and if used improperly, they can even clog pores, cause breakouts and accelerate ageing. It just doesn't help your skin heal and recover from a couple of days away from makeup; it also does wonders for your mental health, particularly in relation to beauty standards. 

Many TikTok users who have participated in this challenge claim that this helped them to feel more confident in their own skin. Many have gone on to say that they have never been out barefaced since their college days. This challenge serves as a beautiful reminder to embrace your natural beauty. Several users on Reddit have spoken about how embracing the 'no makeup' or 'bare face' challenge made them more confident in themselves, as they sometimes used makeup as a tool to hide their low self-esteem. Trying this makeup challenge for a week would be great for both; your mental health and skin concerns. 

Before you complain about not having clear skin, this can be a reminder to embrace your natural beauty. Instead, opt for a day of spoiling yourself with an extended skincare regimen as another way to enhance your natural beauty. Going barefaced is a small act of love that you can show yourself.
