We are under no illusions that when models are photographed they have been expertly made up by experts. We also know that our favorite celebrities are primped and preened before they step in front of a camera or onto the red carpet. But just how far does this makeup go in altering someone's look? These "with" and "without" makeup shots of current and past Victoria Secrets models are very revealing.

Rosie Huntington-Whitely They're all beautiful with or without makeup but who do you think looks the best without it? My vote goes to the gorgeous fresh face of Erin Heatherton.

Some of the models look completely different without make up, yet are portrayed as the most beautiful women ever. Just goes to show how much difference having a makeup artist doing your makeup can make to someones looks

I don't want to come off as annoying but the left picture of Constance Jablonski isn't her 😊 It's someone else!
