Watching Hollyoaks as heard good things about their recent storyline.
Googled the girl who plays Maxine (Nikki Sanderson) and was amazed to read she is 38 years old. Looks way younger, very beautiful and amazing figure.

38 middle aged bahaaha. Give me strength. Suppose if you start your family at 21 it might seem like it.

I think I would have pegged Nikki as being mid-30s. The one that really surprised me was Jenna Coleman. She looks a good decade younger (at least) than she is.

I agree about Jenna Coleman.

If she's had work done it's so subtle I can't tell. She played a school age girl when years older too (not that I ever watched Waterloo Road Blush)

She has facial features often associated with youth; the upturned short philtrum for example.

Another I would add to that list (Jenna Coleman etc) is Isla Fisher.

Jorgie Porter too. She is 35!

They all look young and beautiful to me. What's sad is young girls in their 20's who look in their 30's thanks to loads of makeup and Botox!

It can be ageing if you have it at that age. Overfilled lips and cheeks being the worst.

I saw a woman at the bank, working behind the counter, who could barely speak as her lips were so filled. It wasn't a flattering look. I suspect her real age was 30s but she looked much older.

Jenna Coleman is 36.... that's not old either!!! It's only 2 year older than me. It doesn't look like she's had work done. Neither have I and I don't have any wrinkles either. (Nikki Sanderson has had her forehead botoxed you can tell by a mile) She's been acting for years.. played Queen Victoria etc.

She is a beautiful women goes for the natural look which I prefer, I don't like heavy make up (but that's just my preference).
I think a lot of young people look older due to some make up styles/heavy make up that they do. People like Jenna go for the natural look and people find it hard to put an age on someone.

@SunlightInParis yes she definitely looks 35 with Botox. Again 35 isn't old!

I agree with everything you've said. I didn't know how old Jenna was and, yes, 36 is young still.

Nikki…..is that you?

SunlightInParis · 29/12/2022 13:05

I really don't think Jorgie Porter looks anywhere near 35.
Jenna Coleman also looks in her twenties.
