Laverne Cox Posts Stunning Selfie Without Makeup

Charles Sykes/Bravo(NEW YORK) — Laverne Cox took our breath away while starring as Sophia on Orange Is the New Black, and she’s proved once is just not enough. While taking some much needed time off, the transgender actress took to Instagram to display one of the rarest of celebrity looks — a makeup-free face.

“Finally a few days to relax. I feel so privileged to be able to do work that I love and very privileged to be able to take time off occasionally. I take none of it lightly. Always good to have days with no makeup to let my skin breath. #washfacenobase #TransIsBeautiful,” the LGBT advocate captioned the photo.

The actress also showed off some of her sexy assets in a black sheer one-piece bathing suit to compliment her clean, vibrant skin.

Cox joins the likes of Rhianna, Heidi Klum and Kim Kardashian, who have all gone without makeup for their social media followers.  

Cox will be reprising her role, orange jumpsuit and all, when Orange Is the New Black returns June 12 on Netflix.
