She is one of the world’s most glamorous women – but have you ever wondered what Cheryl Fernandez-Versini looks like before all the prinking, preening and polishing?

Well wonder no more, because the 31-year-old singer and X Factor judge has posted a no-make-up selfie on Instagram.

Cheryl looks strikingly different without her face on – but still very beautiful, and years younger.

Cheryl captioned the picture: “My dad is making me post this picture bc he said I am the double of my nana (his mother) when she was my age, and has a photo just like this but with a scarf on her head.. So here you go”

Here’s what Cheryl looks like with her normal everyday make-up on.

Cheryl recently took part in a style Q&A session on twitter, when she was asked if she preferred her eye make-up smoky, or matte.
