Madonna was seen on a bike ride in New York City on Thursday – giving onlookers a glimpse at her real face after she shared what seemed to be a heavily filtered Instagram photo.
While cycling through Central Park, the 66-year-old appeared to have minimal amounts of makeup upon her taut complexion, save for a bold slick of lipstick.
Her sporty outfit consisted of a black jacket, beanie, and sunglasses as she went for a bike ride through Central Park.
That same day, she had shared a close-up Instagram shot in which her face looked strikingly different to the way it did on her outing.
The photo was part of an album showing her visit to Yale University, where she was perusing an exhibition of work by her artist friend Tracey Emin.
The pictures gave the impression of being significantly airbrushed, though Madonna was also more thickly made up at Yale than on her bike ride.
It comes several days after Madonna announced she and Elton John had repaired their relationship after a length feud.
