The reality star, who has chronic Lyme disease, posted on her Instagram page a makeup-free selfie on Jan. 16, 2016, saying, "Just because some ppl are done with your journey, doesn't mean your journey is done........#AnotherWastedSaturday #LifeFromTheSideLines #Spoonie #LymeDiseaseAwereness #DeterminedToFindACure #AffordableForAll PS: Bad Selfie Day."
"Sometimes I wish Gretchen would just eat her own makeup so she could become pretty on the inside."

Which is why it can sometimes be so shocking to see them without a stitch of eyeliner, lipstick or mascara on. Almost like a dog walking on its hind legs. Or, you know, a Real Housewife walking without six-inch heels on.
