The “If I Ain’t Got You” singer added why she alternates between rocking the makeup-free look and wearing some glam. “I think it was just the awareness of how much we subscribed to social standards of beauty, and I didn’t really think of that before. I just hadn’t thought about it,” she said.

In a previous conversation with PEOPLE about her lifestyle beauty brand,Keys Soulcare, Keys said shebrought makeup back into her life on her own terms.

“I get to determine what’s beauty to me. Nobody gets to tell me what that is, and I can’t tell anybody what that is either. That’s why my relationship with [makeup and beauty] has come to the place where it is,” she told PEOPLE.
