Actress and author Cameron Diaz shared a makeup-free Instagram photo intended to show off the first bound copy of The Body Book: The Law of Hunger, the Science of Strength, and Other Ways to Love Your Amazing Body.

She captioned her fresh-faced image, “One of my proudest moments. I’m so excited to share @thebodybook LADIES! I wrote this for YOU and YOUR BODY…” It is available for pre-order in hardcover and audiobook versions on Amazon for release on December 31, 2013.

Dare we suggest that she looks far younger than 41 without the sophistication of full makeup? We’ve included a glam red carpet pic for comparison purposes. This image was captured at a London movie premiere last year.

According to Forbes, the actress recently purchased a swanky new 3,022 sq.ft. pad in the Chelsea neighborhood of New York City for a cool $9 million. It boasts views of iconic NYC landmarks including the Statue of Liberty and Freedom Tower.

She’ll also shell out $2,745 a month in HOA fees for building amenities that include a 24-hour doorman, concierge, library lounge with pantry and bar, refrigerated storage for deliveries, bike storage room, fitness center, sauna and landscaped common roof deck with dining area, sun lawn, observation area and covered cabana room.

She has three films slated for release in 2014, including the musical drama ‘Annie,’ where she takes on the role of Miss Hannigan, the cruel owner of an orphanage.

Look for her also in ‘The Other Woman’ and ‘Basic Math.’
