Beyonce Knowles and hubby Jaz-Z joined her mom and Mary J. Blige to fete the launch of a new child-rearing book The Thriving Child written by Erica Reid, wife of Antonio ‘L.A.’ Reid on Tuesday evening.  The iconic chanteuse looked fresh faced with minimal make-up for the event, showing off her natural beauty.

It’s refreshing to see glamorous starlets tone down their makeup to look like ‘normal’ people going about their every day lives.  Wish Kim Kardashian would strip down more often and look like a human being instead of a Glamazon 24/7, perhaps people would be able to relate and like her more often.  You go Bey!
