Cameron Diaz is someone who doesn't seem to photograph that well (in terms of aging only! she's a gorgeous woman!) but I saw her in person in NY not too long ago and she looked amazing - lovely, smooth, glowing skin.

I think Reese looks good. And she annoys people, but candace cameron has aged well too.

I like amy adams. I think the picture difference is due to her tan, the cut of the dress, and her smile. The dress in the first picture is a super flattering cut. The blue dress is weird and her boobs look huge which makes her look heavier. And it looks like she was more toned in the first picture. I can believe that body shape changes, especially after this last year! She might not be as focused on workouts.

I’ve seen her in person too and was shocked at how amazing she looked. She looked better in person than I’ve ever seen her photographed.

Wow, I never knew that Britney Spears had so many lines on her face!
She smokes + likes to sunbathe so that likely aged her.

She is much cuter filtered.
I do not think Angelina Jolie, Madonna or Mariah Carey have aged well despite being the epitome of beauty in their prime.
Same for Julia Roberts.

I think there are many women who have aged wonderfully.
• The obvious one, duh (!) at the top of the list is the age-/timeless J Lo.
She is the queen of youth.
• Paris Hilton, Kathy Hilton and Kyle Richards look amazing.
Kim Richards not so much.
• Reese looks great too.

Maybe it's a temporary issue but she looked amazing in 2016 and just looks so puffy and more middle-aged in the second one. Not bad (she's obviously a beautiful woman) but the difference is really striking. I notice it because I have her coloring and similar bone structure and I'm 41 and like how I look, but when I saw her recently I was like "whaaaaat is happening?" If a rich celebrity can take that middle-aged turn so quick, I don't stand a chance!

Hmmmm. I think she looks amazing!

I think she looks great in both photos.

She looks more vibrant in photo 1, because her makeup brings out her eyes and her dress works well with her makeup coloring. The following time of the blue dress is a less sunny look yet she still looks good.

Also one pic she’s posing and smiling, the other one she looks uptight. I think she still looks amazing!

Some people grow into looks, some people get a faces of meth situation, but for the most part? Yeah. Attractive people are attractive. There was a recent reddit post wondering how Heather Graham looks so great at 51. Step one? Look like Heather Graham at 21. A person who looks awful at 21 for the most part isn't going to transform into a hottie at 51.

(also I like to think that from everything I've heard and personal experience Heather Graham is one of the nicest people in Hollywood so that helps)

I think people know this. Yes, you have to be gorgeous to start out. However, the point is that being gorgeous at 21 does NOT mean you will be even moderately good looking at 51.

Just look at Britney Spears, who I don’t think is even 40. Brooke Shields is someone who was stunning at 20, but at 50, no one would even take a second look at her if they passed her in a grocery store.

My friend is a good friend of Heather Graham and he says that she legit looks like she’s in her early 30s in person. I mean, at 20, Brooke Shields was far more striking than Heather Graham was at the same age, but Heather Graham has aged much more slowly. I think these threads are trying to tease out the differences.

Heather never had kids. Bingo!!!

It’s scientifically proven women get less attractive after birth. I’m not even joking about this. Real science studies.

People who have not given birth cannot be placed in the same category as women that have. Pregnancy does a number on everyone--even the ones that 'bounce' back. Some parts of the body--even rib cage are never the same. And the toll of a parasite sucking nutrients and the yo-yo weight gain and loss if you have more than one kid do a number on facial fat and skin elasticity. I got a flat stomach again and 6-pack---but there is a little pooch protrusion from stomach being pushed out.

The mom hate in this thread is ridiculous and plenty of the attractive women talked about here are moms who have given birth. Salma Hayek, Elizabeth Taylor, Cameron Diaz....please show me the scientific study showing women are less attractive after giving birth. I will wait.

Also to the poster above, did you really refer to your children as “parasites”? You sound like one of those sad sacks that posts anonymously on the internet about regretting having kids.

It's why Botox isn't the solution people think it is, at least not around the eyes. Sure, you can smooth out the lines around the orbital socket, but your eyes will still age and the skin will get looser. It actually looks better in the long run if you just allow those crinkles to expand outward into your face. It takes some getting used to, but once you accept them, they start looking normal. But the old eyes sinking into faces with otherwise tight, smooth skin will always look messed up. Don't do this. Men, too. I see some of those older male celebs and politicians and they are falling into the same trap. Mike Pence is a good example.

Preach sister!!! Stop trying to anti-age. aging is beautiful there is no ANTI about it! The more you fight it the weirder your face becomes. You look like an old person trying to be 20... but it comes across as a old person with frozen skin or filler that changes your natural look. Embrace it!

It looks like she gained a bit of weight and the blue dress with the off shoulders isn’t flattering because she has broad shoulders. Also her expression and color of her dress as others have said. Her complexion is still very lovely.

Pictures are deceiving. You can get caught in an awkward pose, unflattering angle and light. Or do the opposite - a perfectly posed., air brushed photo that looks nothing like you in real life.
