Last but not least: Annabelle without make-up

Gossip magazines have long since discovered photos of stars and starlets without makeup. Without makeup, Pamela Anderson can sometimes look like Keith Richards’ blonde sister. The women’s magazine Annabelle also focuses on unvarnished truths.

Gossip magazines have long since discovered them, the pictures of stars and starlets without make-up. For the edification of the viewer, because without make-up Pamela Anderson can sometimes look like Keith Richard's blonde sister. The women's magazine Annabelle also focuses on unadorned facts in its new issue. Instead of blurred paparazzi photos, it prints pictures by photographer Martin Schoeller, who usually takes pictures of people like Bill Clinton, George Clooney or Cate Blanchett. For Annabelle, he photographed prominent Swiss women, including Christine Egerszegi, Maria Becker, Fiona Hefti and Stéphanie Berger. However, the editorial team had to do a lot of convincing before these ladies came in front of his lens, writes editor-in-chief Lisa Feldmann in the editorial (in which she doesn't forget to mention sponsor Vichy). But the results of the photo campaign are impressive. Only entrepreneur Golmar Abivardi seems to have cheated: She wears what is known as permanent make-up and is therefore never completely without make-up. But Nadine Strittmatter looks better without eyeliner and lipstick than we do after a make-up session lasting several hours. How unfair life is.
