LOOK: Pia Wurtzbach flaunts bare face, encourages self-love
Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach showed off her bare face to remind her fans and followers, “Life’s too short to be unkind to yourself.”
The beauty queen shared her face sans her usual glamorous look on Instagram yesterday, Nov. 9, after being nominated to join the #AsSheIs challenge by Miss Universe 2017 Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters. The challenge encourages women to post an unfiltered photo of themselves online with “a caption that displays a side of yourself not typically shown online.”
“Everyday, we all struggle to be comfortable with our imperfections,” Wurtzbach said.

“But today, I’m taking this picture to say hello to ME. Just me. No makeup. No glam team. No styling,” she added. “And, I’m happy with what I see.”
She then reminded her followers that life is “too short to be unkind to yourself” and appealed to them to treat their faces and bodies “as an instrument, not an ornament.”
