Prompted by your post I just viewed the YouTube of the show and I think she looks pretty good for a 71 yr old trying to keep her look going. As far as her hands well, her generation was big into suntanning at one time. I probably will not look as well as she does when I'm 71. My mom didn't and she was far healthier than I am. 

 

Funny, after about 30 seconds of inspecting her looks, I forgot about your post as I ws so impressed by how engaged she was in the segment she was doing with the hosts, and also not just about herself. She came off intelligent and we'll mannered too. Impressive.

She probably had too much sun exposure in her youth.  She's a prime example of the limits to what cosmetic products can and cannot do.

 

I saw her interviewed yesterday by one of those entertainment news programs and both she and her husband looked awful.  She should forbid extreme close ups.

Just spotted her on the Chew. Didn't she have a skin care line? She looks Awful. Her skin on her face looks terrible and her hands look like alligator skin. I would imagine that she would take better care of herself, but not so. I was quite stunned.


I have to agree.  She writes books about healthy this and that; balancing hormones,  all kinds of vitamins, ways to eat and skincare, but her skin doesn't show that.


 

I imagine all those things have helped, but they can only do so much for sun damage in her early years.  It's quite possible that her face would look way worse if she wasn't doing all her nutrition and skin care stuff.  Personally,  I think she looks great.  Also, I dislike that we, me included, go around judging others on "how good they look for their age".

I wish she would bring her haircare line to the Q.  I used it the whole time she was on Evine and loved it.  All ingredients were natural.  Great products.

@Grace6663582  I agree. Even worse than<"take a long look in the mirror "> get a cell phone out and not have a selfie stick or the right angle and eww!!! scary even for younger people.! 

 

I never want to see myself on HD tv.

 

SS is 71 . I would much rather see someone look more like thier age than like the joker from Batman due to too much plastic surgery.  Skin falls, drops, and sags--but life goes on. Smiley Happy

 

Tanning is an enemy, especially of blondes. It was encouraged in the 60's (?) to be 'malibu Barbie' via baking in the sun or tanning booths . Hard to undo.

You all made me watch this.

 

Yes, her face lift(s) is the reason.  She isn't sagging in a natural way.  I'm sort of surprised because she was a big user of her Face Master and said she used it twice a day.

 

I also don't think the orange in the background and her heavy dark eye makeup and orange blush helped.

The skin didn't bother me but the bad plastic surgery did

By the 70's, gravity has visited. The 70's aren't the time to show skin. You don't need a turle neck and pants to the floor, but come on. It's very uncomfortable for striving for sexy in your 70's.

You take Suzanne, Raquel Welch, Jane Fonda. They purposely bare it all to look sexy. They could all look fabulous w/o showing so much

skin.

OTOH, look at Joan Rivers who had a boatload of face work. She at least had the good sense not to bare all the loose, crepey skin possible. Joan wasn't going for sexy in her 70's. You can look fantastic in your 70's w/o baring all that.

Why try to hold on to something that is gone. You just don't look, cute, sexy, voluptuous like a young girl or woman.
