Ever since Pamela Anderson declared the end of her once-cherished relationship with misty mauve eye shadow, black eyeliner and mascara two years ago, she’s been makeup-free, opting instead for a bare, even-toned visage for every major public outing and red carpet event. Her look for “The Naked Gun” premiere in New York City on Monday night was no different.
For the screening of the upcoming Akiva Schaffer-directed film, in which Anderson stars alongside Liam Neeson, Liza Koshy, Kevin Durand and Cody Rhodes, she paired her curled blond bob with a clean base that embellished her natural freckles and light blue eyes. Her signature ultra-thin, arched eyebrows, a style trait belonging to her renowned ’90s aesthetic, were kept intact, while her lips glowed as if they’d been coated in a thin layer of chapstick. In fact, her entire visage boasted that same overt dewiness thanks to her careful skin prep.

Anderson’s skin routine is simple. Most of the products she uses are from Sonsie, the cruelty-free skin care brand she re-founded with her two sons, Brandon and Dylan, in January 2024, about a year after cofounders Marie von Behrens-Felipe and Roberto A. Felipe originally launched the brand.
Her top three Sonsie products — Cleansing Mousse, Super Serum and Basic Balm — complete The Daily Essentials Bundle, priced at $108. The Cleansing Mousse, priced at $32, is a lightweight formula designed to soothe the skin with a soft rose essence inspired by her rose garden in Vancouver. The Super Serum, priced at $64, is a daily product that aims to help refresh and hydrate the skin, giving it a “plump” finish. The Basic Balm, priced at $22, works to remedy dryness, fine lines and texture with squalane and a hydrating peptide complex. Additionally, “The Last Showgirl” star uses Sonsie’s Multi Moisture Cream, priced at $48, which acts as a “deep hydrating treatment” with ingredients such as glycerin and hyaluronic acid.
At the time of Sonsie’s Cleansing Mousse launch in October 2024, marking her first co-created product for the brand, Anderson spoke to WWD about the formulation of the product. “I start each day when I’m home in my rose garden, so I felt, ‘How do I bring that with me?’” she remarked. “I do make a rose hip oil, and I wanted to bring that into the skin care line.”
“When I started working with the Sonsie group, I really wanted to start applying my life lessons and things that I’ve learned along the way — accepting where you are on your beauty journey — and I just felt like the rose garden, for me, was a very grounding message, because I kind of rediscovered myself in the rose garden,” she continued. “When you are using the product, you know that I care deeply about it and about people that are using it, and the messaging that goes along with it is: you are beautiful just the way you are. You are good enough.”
Anderson’s fare in beauty continued earlier this year when she was ushered in as Biolage’s first global ambassador as part of the hair care company’s total brand renovation. Anderson and Biolage’s union marked the largest partnership for the brand in the last 30 years and the on-screen star’s inaugural hair care campaign.
Like her avidness for the no-makeup aesthetic, Anderson favored a new hairstyle recently: the hyper-trendy bob. She let go of the last remaining marker of her “Baywatch” bombshell style back in May, debuting a new chin-length cut and micro bangs on the Met Gala red carpet — and she wasn’t the only one. Nicole Kidman did the same, ditching her trademark straightened tresses for a slicked-back bob that toed the line of a pixie cut.
