When you are 50, you should look, ummm, 50ish.
50-ISH because if you doing things like stay out of the sun, eat doritos only on occasion, sleep well, and not regularly scrunch your forehead in towards your nose when you are really annoyed, you might look a bit under 50. But you should look roughly proximate to the number of decades you have actually wandered around. And if that number is five, then there you have it. 50ish.
Unless you are the no-self-esteem-and-deeply-sickly-jealous-of-your-daughter type.
A woman in Britain was. So she sunk $15,000 into surgery to make her look for more like her offspring, who is 22 years her junior. Bought herself blond hair extensions. A chest. Gotta have one of those. Fixed her eyes, nose. And plumped up the lips to be pouty and arguably more kiss-worthy.
Her explanation: 'I envied Jane's crinkle-free eyes, full lips and luscious, long blonde hair,' says Janet. 'I was desperate to look more like my daughter, but knew no wrinkle creams could ever wind back the clock that far.'......'The way I see it is that she got her looks from me in the first place - mine have just faded with age.'
Newly fattened boobs and lips were not enough to preserve her marriage, or the long relationship she had thereafter. So she moved in with the very daughter who served as the model for her surgeons. Daughter says this: 'Actually, I love us looking the same, we're closer than ever and she's the sister I always wanted and never had.'
