She was so pretty to begin with, but all those injections + no eyebrows = Marilyn Manson look alike. She should take a break from those and wear thick eyebrows. Yikes

She’s ALWAYS had a ton of work done. You liked it until you didn’t.
She had a lot of work done in 1997? I don't think so.
I don't even recognize this Gwen.
- new poster who agrees she was beautiful and insanely cool
Agree! She is now unrecognizable to me. And looks waaaaaay worse.
1997 was 25 years ago

Because she like it. I get botox, highlights, color my hair, eyelash tint & lift, I wear bikinis at the pool because I like it. SF is my idea of a beautiful woman over 50 and she had a lot of work done and looks amazing.
She is baby stepping her way toward ghastly.
I think so too. Eventually she will veer into looking like a drag Queen.

I am absolutely no fan of theirs but I will give them credit for helping to put an end to the anorexic look - remember how horribly starved so many celebrities got in the late 90s / early 2000s?
Nope. the weight thing continues and the anorexic thing comes and goes (unfortunately). As if breast implants weren't enough, now everything is fake. I can't deal with everyone looking like an alien or a creepy animated character.

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.
Thank God someone is here to defend rich women. The right rich women anyway.
Happy to do it! You can ask me anything about the “right” way to age, my people have very strong opinions.
Please tell me how to age like an NE Yankee, I am curious
OK, I will.
You develop a non-nonsense approach to life -- you get up early, you spend a chunk of the day outside, even in foul weather -- probably with dogs -- you don't mind your skin being weathered b/c it's proof you spent your life skiing, sailing and gardening. Plus your husband and all the women around you are strongly supporting this ethos. You love to walk. You even go on vacations to walk -- like rambling through the Cottwsolds for example. You believe a good brisk walk and a hot cup of tea will fix most any mood.
You don't complai. You don't get waxed, blow-outs, manicures. You don't spend money on yourself as in "self-care" unless buying a new bulb-digger to plant fall bulbs is considered self-care. Maybe you slap on some lipstick for Christmas Vespers at church.
You under no circumstances try to be sexy or trendy. You are practical and timeless in your fashion.
You focus on family, volunteer work in your community -- esp. if it's plants/garden related!, do the NYT crossword puzzle, carry on centuries old traditions like baking weird food no one actually wants, decoating and celebrating all the holidays, and most importantly embracing this stage of life as an adult women who has earned respect and dignity and is not trying to recapture her youth.
Oh and books, always be reading something that someone you respect suggested. Start your sentences with "The other day I heard on NPR . . ."
You join -- church, civic groups, tennis ladders, garden clubs, book clubs etc.
Of course what makes this all possible is that literally all of the people in my mom's social circle are the same! NPR-listening, no-nonsense, dog-loving, gardeners.
This sounds like me, without the tennis and gardening, and substitute the Washington Post for NPR.

I find it sad when a woman's life revolves around her appearance and have celebrity idols.
Your opinion doesn't matter. You are just another invisible middle aged woman.
You don’t know her age.

Thanks for this, folks. I've decided not to get botox. I'm turning 50 next year and after reading this, I realized, why the hell am I going to get this done- I look good and barely have wrinkles. It seems like it's a nonstop downward spiral after you get the first work done. Embracing aging by working out, eating well, getting plenty of sleep, and retinol.

Botox I have done, just started at 39, 40. I don't have forehead lines naturally and surgeon said all it needs is 11s. Happy with it and it seems a great thing to do.
My Mom looks lovely and doesn't do anything surgical or injectible. Just no alcohol, lots of water, healthy food and exercise, sun protection, good skincare makeup and current fashion. She is a good weight and size. She also went through menopause late early 50s. But is now almost 70 and looks great. Someone thought she was a childs mom at a playground where we live close in !
I hope I age like my Mom. But I do a little botox. And I would consider a face lift later if needed as I think those get good results.
Early 50s is not late to go through menopause—it is right on schedule.

I know you mean well with your compliment but this is why these women do this. They are in the public eye and under tremendous pressure to stay as beautiful as they were in their 20s, which is impossible. If they age naturally, people will comment on how "tired" they look or how they have "let themselves go" and how they "used to be" beautiful. If they get the surgeries, people will comment on how weird they look and -sigh- they used to be so beautiful.
Our culture and its manufactured standards of beauty and worship of youth chews women up and spits them out. And the truth is, it's really just about money. The beauty industry wants us all to feel like poop about ourselves so they can sell us stuff we don't need that won't do anything anyway.
It's disgusting.
