How Supermodels Stay Looking Young
Is it a sad process for a beautiful model to age? Is she relieved to leave the centre stage and develop areas which don't focus on her looks? Or does she consider her beauty a 'gift' to be nurtured for the rest of her life?
Three ways to age
First, go with the flow. Learn to love your wrinkles which have given you some well-earned character in your face. Proudly tell people that you've earned your lines and a facelift won't ever give your life a purpose.
Jean Shrimpton, the ultimate sixties supermodel happily follows this strategy. She always felt her beauty stopped her from developing her personality to the full. Jean was never comfortable in her role as the most famous model in the world, and it came as a welcome relief to her to put all the glamour behind her and retire to Cornwall, where, for many years, she ran a small hotel with her husband.
Second, wait until the damage of gravity, time and the sun start to show and then have on-going radical surgery and acquire a boyfriend half your age in an endless pursuit of youth.
This option has many followers in the acting profession in Hollywood, but in general is not a good idea. A narcissistic pre-occupation with self-perfection can easily develop, and it all becomes joyless and obsessive.
Third, take the subtle route and halt the obvious sign of ageing through a combination of cosmetic/medical/ surgical regimes of prevention and repair.
This is the strategy followed, by many professional famous beauties, starting in their mid-thirties. They learn to adjust to the subtle changes the years etch onto their faces and bodies whilst aiming to look virtually the same throughout their adult life. Goldie Hawn is a good example of this regime. She hasn't noticeably changed, but admits to gently 'cheating'.
¡°I haven¡¯t had plastic surgery and I would never have it. I hate Botox because I think it makes people¡¯s faces look half-frozen, which is hopeless for my future as an actress.¡± (Jerry Hall)
