Gwen Stefani recently posted a stunning makeup-free selfie to her Instagram page, and while speaking to PEOPLE at the 102.7 KIIS FM's 2016 Wango Tango on Saturday, the singer revealed the inspiration behind her latest snap.

"I was just like laying there, I just got in bed and I was like, 'Maybe I'll send a picture to Blake,'" Stefani said, revealing that the photo was intended for boyfriend Blake Shelton.

"You just start doing like fooling around with it. I had actually a new camera on my phone and I just took that picture."

Although the shot was originally only intended for Shelton, Stefani shared that she decided to post it to Instagram as well. "I probably took about 10 and that one looked cute and I was like 'I'll just post it,'" she said.

The photo quickly racked up thousands of likes, with many fans loving the singer's laid-back look.

"Love the natural look!" one user commented. "Gorgeous!" wrote another.

We definitely agree!
