I was 'accused' of having Botox and fillers

[unipixie]

In a very aggressive manner. I have nothing against Botox/fillers and have considered doing it myself during a very stressful year. I was sneered at, felt a bit taken aback, and didn't know what to say. I couldn't defend myself because that would just feed the attack, plus I have nothing against non invasive cosmetic procedures and am quite pro them. I did consider getting something done as we came out of lockdown 1, but I suppose I won't bother now
I'm 53, and think it's my new hair colour that has lifted my face. Being brave, here's my pic. Does my hair colour lift my features? I was going to go over it with darker toner, maybe I should leave it as it is?

is this where you tell us about your fabulous skin care regimen, and how we can buy it?

It's called Chanel vitalumiere foundation darling 😉

You look good, don’t waste your time on petty minded jealous individuals. Do what makes you feel good, i would stay as you are.

Your hair is gorgeous, don't change it.

I'm 53 too, I love my hair that colour but the grey shows within minutes, lol. I've had no choice but to go lighter. I'd leave it like that if I were you, so long as you don't get grey through, you may be like my husband with no grey.

We'd have to see what you looked like with your previous hair colour to see if the new one has made a difference.

Rest assured I wouldn’t think that!

I’d just think... well, like the colour of your hair actually

Not being rude btw!

Just you look like a woman in her late forties nudging 50, wouldn’t think Botox or fillers no

I like your hair colour, it suits you.
You can tell you haven't had fillers etc, because you look very natural - sickeningly young for your age, but natural.
Because I'm fair haired and light skinned I look much, much older than I am this time of year.
People will sneer if they are jealous.

Can’t you just shrug and say “no, I haven’t had anything done”?

Whoever said this to you, if it’s a friend, it should be an ex friend.

You look really good for 53 :) love the hair x

I think you look beautiful and very young so maybe it’s just an assumption because of that. Ignore and feel good about yourself.

You are beautiful! Im in my mid 30s and you look better than I do!

Your hair colour is spot on. Dont change a thing. You continue being fabulous, you.

You're stunning and look younger than me (37). I could only dream of looking that good at 53!!! Please let me know your secret!!

You look lovely.

We can't really comment on whether your hair lifts your features as we don't know the 'before'
You may get some grief over this post though.

You don't look like you have had fillers. You don't look 53 either, maybe late 40's but you look stunning with amazing hair and skin

Lol, I'm a massive fan of chanel vitalumiere also.

You look lovely, very natural so not sure where the fillers/botox thing has come from. Who was it that has accused you, a friend or some random on the street? If it was a friend and said just after new hairstyling then yes maybe your new hair has knocked years off you. Hard to say without knowing what you looked like before!

You won’t get any grief from me OP. I naturally have very full lips and I’m constantly asked if I’ve had lip fillers. The first couple of times it was amusing but now I’m on 10+ times I’m getting miffed and aware people think I’m lying as they ask more than once.

I’ve been putting it down to cosmetic procedures being the ‘norm’ these days and a distorted view of natural, untouched faces pushed through the media/SM. I’m well practiced at saying ‘no I’m just beautiful dear’. What’s frustrating though, is that I used to be teased relentlessly for looking different (I really don’t, I just have full lips!!) as a child to the point of wishing my lips were less full and now everybody seems to want to look like me

How odd to have someone just come up to you in order to say that! Gosh!

They just sound jealous - you look wonderful. I don’t think you look like you’ve had anything done - you’re just very lucky to have very good skin/face structure. Have you gone lighter or darker with your hair?

Your hair is quite dark which is quite unforgiving at any age.

You look fabulous!

Your hair colour really suits you, I wouldn't go darker.

I want to ask if you are using hair extensions but I dare not or I might be accused of being jealous. It seems to be the default accusation in these parts.

If anyone else says it just laugh and say I wish! with a wink and ignore, they want a reaction from you
