Perhaps this is a fashion in your area… it certainly doesn’t seem to be the case for everyone.
Spent last weekend travelling with our club who come from 3 different departments.
Long hair, short hair and everything in between… everyone looked very chic… except me… I resembled a boiled-beetroot 
and felt like a boiled cabbage (hopefully didn’t smell like one… )

Still beautiful, and was still working at 85 in 2016.
Certainly helps being seriously beautiful to begin with. Now she is 92 and still works it

She lived in Minchinhampton and the railings mentioned where outside my friend’s house in the main street.
She at least has not overdone the artificial aids, and has great bone structure, but I find her slightly expressionless botox’d face creepy rather than beautiful.
She is very beautiful and looks more ‘youthful’ now than she did about 25 years ago. Can’t think how that comes to be.

Worshipping at the altar of Adobe, I think…

Yes, with occasional invocations of those minor deities Botox Nip and Tuck. Photos in French advertisements do now have to say if they are retouched but lighting and filters even on basic smartphone apps do make people look quite different from real life.

I look in the mirror… and despair… then I take off my glasses, look again… and… wow, I look years younger… not a single wrinkle…

Possibly the only good reason for not having cataracts treated!

Who cares… she’s beautiful. I’ll have what she’s having (if I could).
I bet you though, if you knock unexpectedly on her door and she’s been working in the garden, a very different sight would greet you without at least 45min doing hair and makeup. Miaou.

She’d disappear for a bit and come back saying I see you’ve met my mother 
it must be so nice to be good-looking.

I see salmon with a tad of coral…or to be more difficult, a lighter shade of coral!
If I wasn’t asked what colour the shirt was, here on SF, and saw someone wearing it next door, I’d have considered it pink.
Just got back from Blighty and loads to do but, I think that makes 10 for pink.

Thanks all, many and varied, but still loads to do. Fran didn’t seem right when I brought her home and later back here called Samu who sent the Pompiers who came, tested her and took her off to Perigueux where she is staying for 2 days observation.
Christine, aide de toilette, is coming anyway soon and we will go off to the care home to ask what they noticed about her.
Also to try and reclaim my Kindle which I left on a wheelchair.
