Bravo, Cate

Browsing the pages of fashion and celebrity gossip magazines (don't lie, if you don't read them, you at least look at the covers while at the grocery store/pharmacy) can be disheartening at times; we all know that there's a shit ton good amount of airbrushing that goes on to achieve this look of flawlessness, but that doesn't mean that we don't want the perfect hair, skin, body, you name it, for ourselves.  


In a bold move, Cate Blanchett appears on the new cover of the UK's Intelligent Life completely un-airbrushed.  As someone who doesn't leave the house without at least mascara, I find this pretty brave.  It appears that she's still wearing makeup, so it's not a complete au naturel portrait, but one of the first times that I can remember in which a celebrity has willingly skipped the airbrushing.  Fine lines and wrinkles be damned, Cate is still beautiful.
