Pamela Anderson rises early, writes or reads, washes her face, and walks every morning—no matter the weather. This is not a performance. This is her routine. The actor, activist, and cofounder of clean beauty brand Sonsie has spent decades in the public eye, but her definition of beauty has never been about the gaze of others. It is about rhubarb dipped in sugar at her grandmother’s kitchen table. It is about roses she passes on morning walks. It is about putting her toes in the ocean and deciding that all is well.
“I’ve always been a nature lover,” Anderson says. “It has reset me time and again—even in the hardest of times. I can find happiness outside, in the forest or on the beach.”
Who Is Pamela Anderson?
Pamela Anderson, 58, is a Canadian-American actor, model, author, and animal rights advocate whose career spans four decades. She rose to fame in the 1990s as C.J. Parker on Baywatch and appeared in Home Improvement, Barb Wire, and Broadway’s Chicago. In recent years, she has shifted focus to memoir writing, documentary filmmaking, and clean beauty.
In 2024, she cofounded Sonsie, a skincare brand rooted in simplicity and self-acceptance. The company name comes from a Scottish word describing the radiant feeling that appears when inner and outer beauty connect.
“Sonsie means the radiant feeling that appears when self-acceptance and self-care come together,” Anderson explains. “It’s beauty that comes from being comfortable in your own skin. I love that it describes beauty as something gentle and real—not something you chase, but something that’s already there.”
Sonsie Beauty: What Is Pamela Anderson’s Brand Philosophy?
Sonsie launched with a concise mission: give women their time back. Anderson believes the beauty industry has convinced consumers they need 10-plus step routines. She disagrees.
“Unfortunately, we’ve all been convinced into 10-plus step routines,” Anderson says. “It’s not necessary. If anything, I’ve learned less is more. It’s pretty simple.”
The brand’s hero product, Sonsie Basic Balm, launched in 2024. The Sugar-Dipped Rhubarb edition—a peptide-rich, cool-toned shimmer balm—was originally released as a limited-edition fall item. Due to community demand, it officially restocks this week for $22.
“My rhubarb lip balm was inspired by my favorite vegetable—dipped in sugar the way my grandma used to do,” Anderson shares. “It’s a childhood memory of mine. We elevated our basic balm by adding peptides—it’s a community staple and goes everywhere with you.”
What Does Pamela Anderson’s Perfect Self-Care Day Look Like?
Anderson’s ideal day follows a rhythm, not a checklist. There are no elaborate spa rituals or hour-long regimens. There is morning light, stillness, movement, and fresh air.
“I wake up early, write or read, wash my face, go through my Sonsie routine,” she describes. “I walk every morning; I have to get fresh air—no matter the weather.” Her garden is not decorative—it is foundational. Roses appear in her Cleansing Mousse. The act of tending plants mirrors how she approaches her own well-being.
“I always say life is like a garden: Tend to it and watch what blooms,” Anderson says. “It’s the same with our minds, bodies and skin. If you love and care for yourself, it shows…it’s magnetic.”
How Does Nature Shape Pamela Anderson’s Beauty Philosophy?
Anderson does not view nature as an escape. She views it as a return. The ocean, the forest, the garden—these are not backdrops. They are active participants in her self-care.
“Everything in my garden inspires me—my roses especially,” she says. “We added them into our Cleansing Mousse. It reminds me of my morning walks through my rose garden.” When asked how connecting more deeply with nature has changed her relationship with beauty, her answer is immediate.
“I’ve always been a nature lover. It has reset me time and again—even in the hardest of times. I can find happiness outside, in the forest or on the beach. I put my toes in the ocean, and all is well.”
What Does Pamela Anderson Want Women to Feel When Using Her Brand?
Anderson did not create Sonsie to disrupt the beauty industry. She created it to offer relief from it.
“I want them to feel loved,” she says. “To feel at ease. To feel relief.” Her advice to women who want healthy, glowing skin without overcomplicating their routine is the same philosophy that guides her own mornings: simplicity is not deprivation. It is freedom.
“I mean, this is one of the many reasons we built Sonsie—to simplify, to give women their time back,” Anderson says. “Unfortunately, we’ve all been convinced into 10-plus step routines. It’s not necessary. If anything, I’ve learned less is more. It’s pretty simple.”
