Jennifer Love Hewitt is all about self-love these days.
The actress, 46, shared a makeup-free selfie via Instagram on Sunday, March 23, and told followers on the platform that she’s “learning to love the skin I’m in more and more these days.”
“This is for all my ladies out there who are feeling the same. #nomakeup #nofilter,” she added.
Hewitt has been touting self-love in recent weeks, sharing another makeup-free selfie in honor of her birthday on February 21.
“46 years old. No makeup and no filter. (One of my besties hates a filter so this is for you 
) It’s been a hard start to the year. I don’t quite feel myself. But yet I feel like maybe this is all to bring me closer to who I am meant to be,” Hewitt wrote on Instagram.

The actress also thanked her family for supporting her as she navigates aging in public. “In this feeling of loss and being lost I have found a strange calm and letting go that doesn’t usually come easy to me,” she wrote. “I know that I have the greatest kids and husband ever. My brother’s hugs heal me. I feel my mom with me everyday. My friends make me want to be a better human daily.”
She continued: “I have all the things I really need and long truly for nothing other than joyful moments, continuing in the career I love, more time with friends, delicious food and to feel a shift to this year that brings clarity and hopefully the return of a little magic.”
Hewitt also added that aging can be difficult when faced with the many, often unsolicited opinions of others.
“I have experienced and seen how the world can be cruel to women as they age and yet seen the women I admire become happier, sexier and more powerful with every added number,” she wrote. “I am so deeply grateful for this life. I love all who choose to do it by my side and I am ready to give love today to the younger me and the older me because they are my ride or die’s. Sending love to all and cheers to 46! ”
The actress also visited the topic in December 2024 while speaking to Fox New Digital.

I feel like fans pick this age that they love that they think represents you, and you’re never supposed to grow beyond that,” she explained at the time. “For me, it was like me and my 20s. People seem to have a really hard time accepting that I don’t look that way anymore.”
She added, “Age is age. I think women really come into this acceptance of themselves and comfortability in their 40s that is beautiful.”
