Re: Makeup can age the skin

I once worked with someone who was addicted to having botox. She looked really surprised all the time as it shoots the eyebrows up. You have to have it redone every three months as the effects wear off. I wasn't impressed.

Celebs start to look really weird when they start to have fillers done all the time.

Re: Makeup can age the skin

Ha! Ha! I would never be that stupid. Even though I don't have any wrinkles, my face has plenty of scars, which I have achieved over the years as the result of some of my daft exploits. If I was vain about my appearance I would use makeup to conceal them, but I don't.

What daft exploits ?
Do let us in on them .

Re: Makeup can age the skin

Botox and plastic surgery?
Now you’re entering a whole new level of vanity.

I might be vain in that I care about the way I look , down the colour of my nail polish but I’m certainly not obsessed with sitting in front of a mirror to admire myself excessively.I bathe, wash my hair ( let it dry on its own ) , throw on a bit of eye makeup only and that’s it. I’m done.

The thought of ironing out my laugh lines, stretching my skin and injecting needles to either plump up my lips or freeze an area is crazy to me.

The lines on my face are like a roadmap of my life and I’ve lived an extraordinary one thus far. I’ve laughed and cried more than anyone I know so feel I deserve those lines. They tell my life’s story and I wouldn’t want to change that for anything.

I might be a bit on the vain side but I enjoy life far too much to be that obsessed with my looks. And besides which, some of those women ,that have all these cosmetic surgeries ,look about as fake as their personalities.

Good attitude to have Bratti .... just be comfy with yourself and make the most of what you have.

Re: Makeup can age the skin

Well said Bratti.

I remember reading about an actress June Brown, she said that she liked wearing wigs, she could tape her excess loose skin up and secure it under the wig.

Re: Makeup can age the skin

Thanks Annie, nice to know that. I think I would like something, but when it get's right down to it, I usually don't bother.

I can get very expensive doing all the regular things that some of us do every month or 6 weeks....with our hair, nails, massages, wax jobs.....costly..
