Fresh-faced Goldie!

Earlier this week, Kate Hudson's mother Goldie Hawn ditched her normal painted face to go makeup free while running errands in Los Angeles.

Clad in a black tank top and leggings with her hair worn down and loose, Hawn, 66, looked nearly unrecognizable as she toured the site where she is said to be building a new home.

A mother of three and a grandmother of four -- including Kate's sons Ryder, 7, and Bingham, 17 months -- the legendary actress says her secret to aging gracefully is living in the moment.

"There's a lot of dark, but you have to balance it out," the Overboard and Shampoo star told Us Weekly in 2011. "I'm a real optimist. Have the intention to enjoy life and to have a good time. I love being alive. I cherish every moment."

For Hawn, having a good time includes staying active. The actress recently told Anderson Cooper that she tried out a few moves on daughter Kate's stripper pole. "She had it for a while and I played on it as well," Hawn admitted.

"First of all, there is nothing more fun than swinging around a pole. I tried it, and it was the hardest thing . . . to try to get yourself on this pole. There was no sexual connotation to it whatsoever."
