Why do rich women pay lots of money to deform their faces to look like this?

What about my neck!?!? But then I look around at the women in the waiting room in their 50s and I wonder - what's the end game? It doesn't look natural. And frankly if I'm honest with myself, the botox doesn't look natural, either. I should have wrinkles on my forehead at this point! One of my most beautiful friends has just passed the tipping point from "how is she 40?!?!" to "she's starting to look weird" and I want to shake her. But it's her choice and I guess if she feels good that's what matters.

We're watching Bad Sisters and I'm struck by the natural teeth, natural aging, etc. and how we just don't allow that of our American celebrities. I find it easier to become absorbed in the characters and story when I'm not distracted by a glass forehead and veneered teeth in a period drama.


I do the same as you PP and am the same age but have never really considered venturing beyond Botox.

I am also watching Bad Sisters and I think Eva and Ursula are both so pretty. I didn't connect how healthy and realistic that is to feel about women in their 40s/50s, but I am reassured to feel that way and not feel a pull to strive for a plastic ideal. I mean we'll see about a mini lift in 15 years, but right now, I'm happy with my face.


Eva is pretty, but I don’t think it’s all natural. She’s the same age as Grace in real life, and what a difference!

So does Jodi Foster (59)



I'm surprised more people aren't commenting on this photo of Jodi Foster at almost 60. Really lovely.


She looks almost 70 :-\


If she got just her eyes done, and a subtle amount of filler in her lips she would look fantastic. I’m saying just these two particular things to keep it low-key.


Omg, no. This is what makes people look ridiculous. She looks beautiful and natural. You are probably a hot mess yourself

It’s really easy to go overboard with fillers and surgery. You need a good provider who knows where to stop.

+1 I love that she still looks like herself!

Well the rich women, like Susan Dell, are still doing this and while they may not have been beauty queens prior to getting work done, they looked so much better before…step away from the operation table and give to charity instead!

+2. And to the PP who said she looks like she’s 70, that’s because your perception of a woman’s age is being skewed by plastic surgery. Kris Jenner should not be our bar of what a 70 year old looks like. Jodie looks very healthy; her skin is very nice!!!

OTOH my mother and her friends are all “rich” women and they are aging old school NE Yankee style, grey men’s hair cuts, no makeup, turtlenecks and pearl studs. So its really more of a class than a wealth thing.

Exactly. Not everyone has the luck to work in professions where women can age how they want.

It’s a reverse Dorian Grey.

Susan Dell looks like the stuff of nightmares. She was very pretty before.

Yes, very much like the bride of Chucky. This really needs to stopped at the root. It’s almost like the plastic surgeons are to blame…botching the surgery to make the patients come back to fix.

I agree. She would have been much better off without all the work.

I think it’s a form of body dysmorphia but now it’s the face.

Why did you bump up this old thread, pp? Feeling insecure?
