AIBU to think Reese Witherspoon looks amazing for her age?

OP posts:

Of course she does.
She gets to pick her jobs and how much she works, has staff on hand to help her, has professional stylists, hair & makeup people, can afford the best skin care, chefs to make sure she has the best nutrition, personal trainer etc etc.

How old is she?

onthedonkey · 17/08/2022 17:19

@Lagattolove 46

Yes Reece looks good but I saw Neve Campbell in something recently and she is just gorgeous. Doesn't look like she's had work done either.

I would say she looks amazing and leave it at that. Not sure why her age matters? I really hate those back handed compliments.

PinkArt · 17/08/2022 17:31

@dmask Agreed! She looks great. No need for the 'for her age'. It's like a weird form of negging that women do to ourselves.

I'm sure I read years ago that she swears by wearing SPF everyday since she was a teen. Obviously she has a lot of other help but it's enough of an advert to get me to be religious about it too.

MiniCooperLover · 17/08/2022 18:16

Who wouldn't with nanny's, rarely looking after their kids due to working away and easy access to beauty treatments. Is this a boring BOT post?

megletthesecond · 17/08/2022 18:23

Anyone with money can look good. She looks like she's probably had an eye lift for starters.

lioncitygirl · 17/08/2022 18:28

So does Gwen stefani, JennAniston, TomCruise. 🤷🏽‍♀️

LuciferRising · 17/08/2022 18:34

Why are people obsessed with how good someone looks as they get older? And she's only in her 40s.

Penguinsaregreat · 17/08/2022 18:36

She had always looked great.
I don’t see it necessary to add “for her age” either.
Loved her in Legally Blonde.

I think this makes all the difference to be honest. Reese and Neive are both timeless beauties and seem relaxed and pleasant women and I think that helps too.

Neve Campbell is naturally pretty she's lovely. I think work would spoil her

46 isn’t old!

LoobyDop · 17/08/2022 21:10

Do you mean that a 35 year old who looked like her would be a minger? Or are you just blown away by her ability to brush her own hair and get her lipstick in the right place in her ancient state?

WhileMyGuitarGentlyWeeps · 17/08/2022 21:11

Agree with the posters saying 'she looks good for her age' is really shit. And she is only in her mid 40s FFS.

She is very pretty, and she looks younger than 46. But she doesn't look 21! She looks some 8 years younger, and is very attractive, but like everyone else, she does not look any more than 7-10 years younger than her age. Not when you look properly.

But 'she looks good for her age.' WTF does that even mean? Hmm

IcedPurple · 17/08/2022 21:36

I think Reese is one of those rare people who have actually got better looking with age. I've never considered her to be an outstanding beauty. Pretty, sure, but in an everyday sort of way. Now in her 40s, however, she's really grown into her looks and has established her own sense of style. She looks better than ever.

BlackbirdsSinging · 17/08/2022 21:39

Reese Witherspoon looks great. That’s it. No need for the “for her age”.
You are implying it’s not possible for someone age 46 to look good - she only looks good because she looks younger.

WhileMyGuitarGentlyWeeps · 17/08/2022 21:41

Has anyone ever seen Reese's daughter Ava? The likeness is stunning. She's like a clone. Grin

Both such beautiful women.

for her age

Because we start looking like crap when we hit a certain age?

I think the hair makes her look superficially like her mum. But facially I think she resembles her dad much more. She lacks Reese's pointy chin.

cardboardbox24 · 17/08/2022 21:53

Agree with PP that Ava looks more like her dad than her mum
