With picture-perfect models and flawless-looking stars taking over billboards, TV screens and the world wide web, it’s not so difficult to understand why society has exceedingly high standards of beauty. These ladies, however, beg to make a difference by embracing their own imperfections. Below, meet eight proud freckle-faced celebs who are proof that nothing beats natural beauty.

Supermodel Gisele Bundchen may have already retired from the runway, but there’s no way we’re forgetting her fierce walk and her sultry freckled face.

A freckly face sure didn’t stop Monika Sta. Maria from making it to the final three of Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 3. If anything, it made her more of a top model with a distinguishing set of beauty marks.

Even with her Hermione Granger spells, we seriously doubt Emma Watson would want to wave her wand to get rid of those freckles. We do love you as you are, Emma!

Did you know that the Pretty Woman star was once asked by a director to remove her “dirty” facial marks for a movie role? Yup, and her public statement about it just doubled our respect for the actress. "I don't spend a lot of time in front of the mirror. I'm pretty efficient in terms of looking at myself and, to be honest, I don't think what you're talking about is a business demand - it's a cultural obsession," says Julia.

Suits star Meghan Markle is also known for her freckled face. Without those facial marks though, the show’s smart and stunning paralegal wouldn’t have been the same.

Given her booming modelling career, it’s become difficult to keep up with this Kardashian that we almost forgot that she used to be a freckle-faced teenager. Her recent makeup-free selfie, however, proved she’s still the same old Kendall—only more popular.

Olivia Munn’s always been proud of her natural facial marks. In fact, even during red carpet events, she only highlights her eyes and lips, preferring not to conceal her freckles via tons of makeup.
