Miss Sweetheart glows at the 2011 MTV VMA after-party in Los Angeles, then goes au naturel for xoJane.com.
If the "Jersey Shore" beauty queens taught a course in makeup application, the syllabus would be structured around the following themes: How To Apply Fake Eyelashes, When Eyeliner Just Isn't Enough and Bronzer: 'Nuff Said. And we'd probably sign up for the class, cuz even though the Seaside glamazons use a lot more cosmetics than we're used to putting on, they're always smokin' hot and photo-ready for the red carpet or a night of club-hopping.
Thing is, there's a time and place for globs of makeup, and some might call it unnecessary to wear hot pink lipstick and five layers of liquid foundation to the drugstore, which is why xoJane.com decided to give Sammi, the gal who typically takes the longest to get ready, a makeunder. Earlier this month, they met up with Sam at the beach and insisted on changing her makeup routine for the shoot. "[Sammi] was wearing black eyeliner at 9:30 am. My kind of woman, to be sure--but I immediately asked Shannon, our makeup artist, to make sure all of it got taken off," says Cat of xoJane.com.
So how much time did the pros spend on the makeunder? According to the article, a whopping 5 minutes--and we think she looks absolutely stunning.
+ Do you prefer Sam's paler less orange, au naturel look, or does she look better with more makeup? Sound off in the comments!
