Fresh star stories with a cool online feel.

As the Styles at Life photos show, a no-makeup look is easy for Angelina Jolie to pull off. Her skin looks luminous, her smile is still contagious, her lips are to die for, and um, does she even age?

How does the actress look so lovely well into her forties? As she told InStyle in 2018 about her early approach to beauty, "I was a bit of a tomboy." The star noted her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, was a big influence on her use of makeup, noting she didn't wear a lot when the actress was growing up.

The humanitarian added, "I've had the same dermatologist since I was 11; her name is Rhonda Rand. It's who my mother brought me to when I was little with my first scar. To have somebody who is very encouraging of being as natural as possible has really helped me, I think."

As an adult, Jolie admitted she prefers a minimalist look, explaining, "I don't want to have to depend on a makeup artist. I'm much more comfortable with just a little concealer for my dark circles. That's my main thing." 

So, it seems being comfortable in your own skin is the secret!
