Elyse Knowles goes makeup-free as she poses in a muted pink and green bikini during winter road trip

Elyse Knowles certainly braved the winter chill as she went whale watching during a road trip on Friday.

Posing in multiple photos shared to Instagram, the 27-year-old Myer ambassador stunned in a green bikini top and muted pink bottoms, worn with a white, lightweight shirt.  

In one photo, Elyse stood cheekily through the sunroof of her $63,000 four-wheel drive.

The former Block star let her tousled blonde locks frame her makeup-free face as she flaunted her glowing visage.   

‘When it’s whale migration season and I have the best view,’ Elyse wrote in the caption.

She added: ‘Nothing better than watching these beautiful creatures flap about.’ 

Elyse’s beach side photo shoot comes after she admitted that she feels insecure when she does not wear foundation or use fake tan.

Last month, she shared a makeup free selfie to Instagram that revealed her freckles, and explained that she was ‘feeling a little vulnerable about the friends on my face’. 

She added: ‘Here I feel pale and a little blah to be honest as I stand very open to opinionated people.’

Back in April, Elyse was slammed for calling the deadly COVID-19 pandemic a ‘gift’ to the planet in an interview with A Conscious Collection for Earth Day.

‘While the spread of coronavirus has been devastating in countless ways, if we look for a silver-lining we’ll find the gift it’s given our planet,’ she said. 

She went on to list the supposed benefits, including cleaner air, ‘glistening’ beaches, and ‘a safer home’ for wildlife as people stay home to practise social distancing.
