Today in bummer facts: Women who wear makeup make more money and appear more competent to others. But in the August issue of Glamour, Mila Kunis said bye to all that nonsense and posed makeup-free on the magazine's back cover.

The actress's interview also touches on excessive photo editing, a rampant problem in the editorial and advertising industries. Kunis hates the practice, she says, citing previous experience working with a company that she says aggressively manipulated her photo.
Kunis is the latest celebrity to embrace a lack of makeup in an industry that all but demands it. In June, Alicia Keys published an essay in Lenny Letter about inspiring a bare-faced movement after releasing makeup-free photos alongside her 2016 single "In Common." "The universe was listening to those things I'd promised myself, or maybe I was just finally listening to the universe, but however it goes, that's how this whole #nomakeup thing began," she wrote. "Once the photo I took with Paola came out as the artwork for my new song 'In Common,' it was that truth that resonated with others who posted #nomakeup selfies in response to this real and raw me."
