How would the world change if clothing and beauty products didn't exist?

This question is a bit out there so please forgive me. Imagine you wake up tomorrow to find that all the clothing, beauty products, and other adornments have disappeared from the world, never to be remade again. Instead of applying makeup in the morning, billions of women to out into the world baring the face they woke up with no matter the situation. Instead of putting together outfits for the day, we live our lives in bare feet and unclothed bodies, lacking jewelry or hair products as well. Aside from having to deal with cold weather (just pretend everyone adapts to this), how would society change? How would the world react to these changes, and how would you deal with them personally? Do you think it would change how pregnancy is perceived or handled if everyone was nude and natural?

I was expecting this to be a spam ad, so I’m surprised to see a real question, however existential.

Also, if everyone were nude and natural, I would hope it would change how women's cycles are viewed, and how other PG events (i.e. MC) were viewed as well.

This sounds like a nightmare for a newly breastfeeding mom. Baby cries and you squirt an innocent bystander with milk lol
