This year's 64th Miss Universe pageant will air on January 29 at 7 p.m. Ahead of the event, the Miss Universe Organization has been releasing tons of photos of the contestants in their National Costumes and touring around the world.

But one set of photos stands above the rest. While in the Philippines, seven of the 86 women posed without makeup on.

At this point, going makeup-free has become the trend du jour. Celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Demi Lovato, and Gywneth Paltrow frequently post pictures of themselves makeup free, and Alicia Keys has made it a point to stop wearing makeup on red carpets and "The Voice" altogether.

The Miss Universe contestants, who hail from different regions spanning from Ecuador to Iceland, all shared a quote about what it was like going makeup free.
