Why is it that when people post a ‘raw and unfiltered’ selfie they all of a sudden feel the need to qualify the picture with some profound statement on being natural or they make a goofy face?
Despite that odd thing I notice every time one of these pictures float around on social media I do understand Tyra’s intent when she posted the above picture with a message.
Going raw and unfiltered seems to be sort of a break from the norm, something us women tend to not do very often. Just last night I saw a video with about 10 apps on one woman’s iphone for filtering and altering photographs. What does this say about us girls?
As we strive to become more natural, putting away the lashes, ditching the weaves, and putting the make up away sometimes it might be difficult for us to just accept everything flaws and all.
The cool thing is if you practice acceptance it will come natural again like it used to, before we had filters, ‘flaw fixers’ and photoshop.
Here is what Tyra had to say about being raw and unfiltered:
‘You know how people say #no filter but you know there’s a freakin’ filter on their pic? Or maybe there’s a smidge of retouching going on but they’re lying and saying it’s all raw & real?
Well, this morn, I decided to give you a taste of the really real me. I wanted to smooth out my dark circles so badly!!! But I was like, “Naw, Ty. Show ’em the REAL you.
I Use This Product EVERY Week!
To my gyals, clay has cured my skin of years of acne proned skin, improved my complexion, acne scars and shrunk my pores. This is the best clay mask assortment pack to try all my favorite kinds of clay + it's affordable.
So…here I am. Raw. And there YOU are…looking at me, studying this picture. Maybe you’re thinking, “Whoa, she looks ROUGH.” And if you are, great! You deserve to see THE real me. The really real me. #RawAndReal’
Cheers to being raw and unfiltered at least a few times a week!
Cute!!!!

To whoever that wrote the title of this post,…take a selfie of ur ugly face ,makeup free just like her,post it here and let us compare.at least she’s recognizable but u wouldn’t be I swear,and remember her age also?…we lv u Tyra.
The title is saying that it’s unfortunate that it’s not normal for people to go without makeup…
Tyra is a Natural Beauty…even when she’s mkn crazy faces
TRUE
*nose job
Natural yes
Her true beauty is gone.
He skin still amazing.
ATo many fotos of you plain
With no make up 10 is to many. We love seeing the beautiful gorgeous Woman
Still has that beautiful face..
wow!!!she looks like me.
Ughhhh
She looks great; and like “herself”.
Ppl acting like they don’t know what makeup is, like she was born with long as eyelashes and eyeliner. ..of course she looks like herself
Good for her!
Lol she doesn’t look like herself . No makeup is herself . Stop reaching
She looks like herself to me, minus the make up.
Actually she does look like herself!
I was about to ask who she was!! 🙂
She looks like tyra banks without her make-up.
Not a good look
I go raw and unfiltered everyday. It’s nothing new for me.
She’s still beautiful
Put the makeup back on…..not a good look
If this is how she looks without makeup God help her. Because she’s madeup like a clown all the time I didn’t recognize her. Is she really that fake? I never wear makeup. But she definitely needs it after hiding her real face for all these years.
She is a beautiful woman and a beautiful soul.
Looks fine
Those eyes.
I never used any make up just all natural, was the way I all ways went…
Yes, knew it was her but some females you would never know it was them with the power of make up. Some females are really a case of false advertising. But of course to each thier own.
Now seriously how are y’all gonna sit and say she doesn’t look like herself?
One she has a crazy expression.she shouldve just smiled or smized
WOW she went from being dark and lovely to what? Bleaching, ugh….. Don’t woman of colour feels confortable in their own skin anymore? Say it loud am proud to be an Israelite woman. A child of GOD
When Tyra Banks was modelling she had a much darker complextion.
I recognized her but I think that more people should cut down their makeup and know they have natural beauty
Looks great still!!
This is what chicks with make up dont understand
Yeah that Tyra lol she a natural beauty n her make up is beautiful
Yes Tara we see you, and you dont change to drastically wnen you are under all that extra stuff
For her to think going natural is horrific is sad, but thats the industry she promotes so glad i never got caught up in the make up, hair and nail lie, cheaper for me to stay natural
Trying to buck her eyes makes no difference she does look younger without makeup caked on her face.
Her eyes!!! Beautiful!!
