Hoda & Kathie Lee Go Makeup-Free On 'Today Show' (VIDEO, PHOTOS)

Hoda and Kathie Lee jumped on the all-natural trend train this morning when they appeared entirely makeup-free on "The Today Show." They started out looking, well, hungover in their sunglasses and with KL's hair in a ponytail.

But before the big reveal, the co-hosts offered a behind-the-scenes look at their usual morning makeup routine. They start out bare-faced, and Hoda says "I feel naked. I'm 45. I feel self-conscious." Kathie Lee says "Here I am bare and unafraid. The way I go through life." But can we just say it looks like she's definitely wearing eyeliner, if not mascara as well.

Take a look. What do you think?

They're joined by Rosie O'Donnell who (surprise, surprise) is also not wearing makeup. They then check in with the other "Today Show" anchors--Meredith Vieira, Ann Curry and Natalie Morales. Still shots of those women below. The consensus of all? "I feel liberated."

Meredith Vieira: "I almost never wear makeup when I'm not on the show."

Ann Curry: "Sometimes I feel like on the show I wear enough makeup to frost a cake."

Natalie Morales: "I'm scaring little children at home right now...this is actually the way I am most of the time. I like to go au naturel."

Average nice-looking women with or without makeup.

I think Ann Curry and Natalie Morales would be beautiful covered in mud. Make-up, no make-up . . . women should not be made to feel ugly for something so dumb. Judge them for what they do, not how they look. THAT said . . . um . . . Meredith, just a touch of lip-gloss, maybe? :)

Please retire this story and picture from the front page of Style. Those women look dreadful. Some women look wonderful without their makeup. Kathie Lee and Hoda, not so much.

Don't ever leave home without it (if you are 50+).

Oh my!! I love a natural looking woman, but not so much on the folks I watch on TV. This was a bad idea...
