LOS ANGELES, Ca., Nov.23 (TOTI) -- As Holly Madison begins a new phase of her life - outside of the arms of 82 year old Hugh Hefner and the Playboy mansion - she admits that she's trying a new approach to beauty by wearing less makeup and looking more natural.

Madison, who is now dating Las Vegas illusionist Criss Angel, told Life & Style magazine, "I think the breakup is partially the reason.
The truth is, I barely wear lip gloss anymore because I'm always making out with my boyfriend, so it comes off in 2 1/2 seconds." She added, "Apparently I wasn't making out with Hef as much."

Madison said that her new natural look is okay with beau, Criss Angel. She said "He doesn't like me in a lot of makeup."

Madison is now living in Santa Monica and is working as a photo editor for Playboy. Despite her decision to leave the Playboy Mansion, she will still be filming the sixth season of The Girls Next Door while Hugh Hefner finds replacement girlfriends. Kendra Wilkinson, another of Hefner's live-in girlfriends recently announced her engagement to Hank Baskett and is also moving out.

Despite all the changes, Hefner is rolling with it. According to reports, he's hosting Wilkinson and Baskett's June 2009 wedding at the Playboy mansion and will even be giving the bride away. Holly Madison will be a bridesmaid.
