- Kristen Bell, 40, has glowing skin and curly hair in a new no-makeup Instagram photo.
- The actress says she's letting her braided hair free in the photo after a week tucked under a wig.
- Kristen's glowing fresh face is thanks to her inside-out approach to skincare and veggie-packed diet.
Kristen Bell, 40, is sporting a totally new look while filming a new flick. After a full week wearing a wig, she let her newly curly hair down in a recent no-makeup Instagram photo. Not only is she rocking a new 'do, but her skin is totally flawless. Yep, that lit-from-within glow is after a packed week of filming.
Kristen shared the background intel on her appearance: "I'm in a wig for my current movie. When I take my braided hair out at the end of the week, this is what I get. And I am INTO IT. Do I need to get a perm???
In addition, yes. I am slightly cross eyed. Always have been, always will be. G'NIGHT!"
Noticeably missing from the caption info? Her skincare routine. (Come through, Kristen!) Thankfully, she’s already shared a bunch of her skincare tips. For starters, she skips the morning cleanser. Why? Her skin is on the drier side, she told Elle. (Instead, she puts a hot towel on her face before putting on her makeup.)
But, she always washes her face at night. "I never go to bed with makeup on," Kristen told Shape. "I double-cleanse at night and use a wipe before I wash my face. I like the natural wipes from Neutrogena and their pore-clarifying cleanser, which I use with my Clarisonic."

Her diet also plays a role. Kristen previously told Women's Health that her veg-heavy diet helps with occasional eczema flares.
Fans filled with comments with compliments on her clear skin: "Natural beauty 🌻." And, yes, they did discourage her perm idea. But there's no doubt Kristen could pull it off.
