What a blessing! I feel sorry for people who chase youth as they age.  I know some have to, just glad I don't!


 

well aren't you just special. why don't you post a picture of yourself and we can all judge?

To me, it reveals vanity and perhaps shallowness and perpetuates an unhealthy obsession with youth and a lack of grace for getting older.


Oh blessed mother of Bob Dylan, I so disagree. Most look great there are a few. Who bite off more fillers than they can chew  Many people get lips , cheeks and fillers and no one even knows. I do not think they are age obsessed or vain. Many are that without fillers.  Lol   Lol that is my opinion and I'm sticking with it.

What are your opinions on the look of the fat lips a lot of women are getting?

I myself and my guy. Think they look ridiculous and so many ruin their looks permanently.


Remember those red wax lips we used to wear on Halloween night when trick or treating? That's what they look like.

I asked my Botox nurse about it (why are people getting such big lips?) She said "many people start off with just a touch and then they insist on having additional" hence the 'overdone' look.  She said if it's done properly, you shouldn't be able to tell they've had filler. 

 

Would I do it? No. I have prominent 11 lines between the brows and I wish those would disappear but even Botox doesn't work.

A couple of the hosts have gotten carried away with lip filler. A more Natural look is better.

@tarsmom I've never done Botox, but I have the 11 lines as well as another deep one right in the middle, so I guess I have 111 lines.  And I've got one large horizontal line above in the middle of my forehead.  The two deep ones have been there for years.

Pictures of me as a baby show that I had a little pink rosebud for a mouth. Then it bloomed. And it wasn't desirable at that particular time. As I grew I got to be 5'10 at 13. And I was skinny with bushy eyebrows, and in Junior Highschool. The names...liver lips, long tall Sally, Jack and the beanstock, caterpillar eyes...and there were more. Not the best years of my life. But I could see good at parades. Gotta look for the bright side. Smiley Wink

I think it looks weird.  Sort of like a cartoon character.

 

I was channel surfing and heard Laura Geller not too long ago (couple of weeks)  say something to the effect;  "I never met a woman who didn't want big juicy lips.' (Not an exact quote ..... but that's how I heard it.)

 

I guess if you don't want people to notice some other not-so-great feature ... "big juicy lips" is one way to go.
