Go BearFaced

Fact titleFact data
When: Friday 9 November
How: Go 'BearFaced' for the day
Why: To raise money for BBC Children in Need

Show your natural beauty

We asked women across the UK to show their natural beauty and wear no make-up for BearFaced Day – 9 November 2012. It was a great way to raise money for BBC Children in Need and really easy to do!

We had a whole host of people involved including Heidi Klum, Louise Redkanpp, Sian Williams, Jodie Kidd, Julia Bradbury, Lulu, Caroline Flack, Abbey Clancy and Tuuli Shipster. See the gallery below for pictures of celebrities and the public going BearFaced.

You can go BearFaced any time, simply ask friends, family and colleagues to sponsor you. But, as you’ll see here, just like Tuuli Shipster, you can also show you’re part of the tribe by putting your own take on Pudsey’s pawprint on your face – a "beauty spot"-like paw in eyeliner, a Pudsey pawprint tattoo, diamante spots – anything you like!

Keep your eyes peeled for more BearFaced news in 2013.

Pudsey Pawprint Tattoos

You can buy exclusive Pudsey pawprint temporary tattoos from your local Post Office or from the Post Office online store.
