Summary
- Actresses removed makeup on air to discuss self-expression.
- Bell encourages daughters to see makeup as creative, not for hiding.

During a recent television appearance, actresses Kristen Bell and Drew Barrymore candidly discussed self-expression through beauty and style, particularly in the context of parenting. The stars initiated a bold move by removing their makeup and hair extensions on-air.
Bell revealed on 'The Drew Barrymore Show' that Barrymore's show fostered an environment where such an act felt natural. Bell mentioned her desire to model a bare-faced approach for her daughters, Lincoln and Delta, as they began exploring makeup.
She explained her philosophy: makeup and fashion are tools for creativity, not for hiding insecurities. Bell also noted that she herself rarely wears much makeup in daily life and on social media, wanting others to feel that makeup is not mandatory.
Bell's husband, Dax Shepard, is supportive of their daughters' style experiments, emphasizing the importance of internal validation over external approval. Bell previously shared with PEOPLE that she consciously works on modeling positive body image and self-confidence for her children, recognizing that she must possess these qualities herself to impart them.
