Actress Mila Kunis posed bare-faced on the August cover of Glamour magazine. The pregnant mother one dishes about life with husband, Aston Kutcher, motherhood and being photographed without makeup.
On choosing motherhood over career, “I got—knock on
wood—very lucky. But I did choose. I took a chunk of time off. If it
were up to Ashton, we would have had kids much sooner. But I had
contracts for films I had to do. I was like, “Let me finish this last
thing, Jupiter Ascending, and we’re a go. I’m going to take a
solid break from acting.” And let me tell you, when I would get a call
with an offer, I wouldn’t even flinch. I was like, “No, I’m pregnant.”
“No, I have a baby.” I wasn’t ready to go back. I was so happy saying no
that I knew it was the right decision.”

On her longtime relationship with Ashton: “There’s
nothing we don’t know about each other because we’ve known each other
for so long: the ugly, the bad, the good. We went through a period where
I thought he was crazy. At the height of his career, I was like, “Ugh, I
don’t like you. I don’t even know you anymore. You think you’re such
hot sh-t.”

On how it feels to be photographed without makeup: “Fine! I don’t wear makeup. I don’t wash my hair every day. It’s not
something that I associate with myself. I commend women who wake up 30,
40 minutes early to put on eyeliner. I think it’s beautiful. I’m just
not that person. So to go to a shoot and have my makeup artist put on
face cream and send me off to do a photo, I was like, “Well, this makes
life easy.” And you’re still protected. Nobody’s there to make you look
bad.”
