How to steal the show.

I am ambivalent. Joan Collins is a credit to what artifice and money can buy, but Mary Berry at much the same age looks, fresher, younger and more attractive.

I am afraid there is a touch of mutton dressed as lamb in this photo.

I really feel compelled to comment on this post. “ mutton dressed as lamb” in my opinion is just about the rudest, bitchiest and cattiest thing for a woman to say about another woman especially one as beautiful as Joan Collins! I tend to think it says more about the person saying it than the object of their vitriol.

To be dressed as lamb even metaphorically, would in my mind mean to have her hair in ringlets with a smocked, puff-sleeved summer dress 😁

She looks great!

I saw Mary Berry at a funeral in my village recently, MOnica, and she looked terrific.

But Joan looks great too.

Allira Jane Fonda was very beautiful, but looks ancient now. Hate her politics. Not exactly a good advertisement for face cream, and neither is Helen Mirren.

She's not ancient yet!! 😁

So artificial looking to me. Notice the aged skin and colouring on her ankles and feet. Is botox not recommended for those areas?
If Joan and anyone like her is happy with their look, let them carry on.

Yes, i think so..
Women are always the worst critics.

Shouldn't we be celebrating all these older women who are still working, still striving to look their best, still showing there is life in the old gals yet instead of criticising, moaning and turning into GOWs?

Hanoi?
What's that when its at home?

Has she, Allira?
I know she did workout videos.

That's scary enough in itself!

Hanoi Jane!

She has Percy ladies, every woman needs a Percy.

M0nica I think Mary Berry looks extremely old. Every one of her years, and her hair is awful. Like a helmet. Joan looks far better.

Oh dear. How sad. It.musr.be so frightening to have failing sight.

I think Jane Fonda looks scary in those pictures.
Not that i care one way or the other.

But she always has!!

I don't care if she's had a lift or not
.
Good on her, i say.

Watch the video of her make-upless with Michael Parkinson on YouTube and see him search her hairline and behind her ears for any tell-tale scarring. There wasn't any!

I think she looks fabulous whether she had cosmetic surgery or not! I hope I look as good as her when I’m 90. My feelings whatever you feel to help you look this good then do it!!!

Will we still be starring in films Susieq12? 😁

that not rather

This device does not like the word that!

What sort of hairstyle is that.

I should think it's representing the part she just played in a recent film, rather of the Duchess of Windsor in her later years after the Duke's death and promoting the film.

Duchess of Windsor was 89 when she died.

Meow!

She's certainly done what she was hoping to, hasn't she?
Completely stolen the show.

Sarcastic, wrong - and smacking of the green-eyed monster.

It has long been established that she's never had any cosmetic surgery.

On a one-to-one with Michael Parkinson she started bare-faced and applied her makeup as they spoke. She invited him to examine her hairline and behind her ears to look for stitch scars.
He did. There weren't any. (Available on YouTube).

There's simple reasons why she looks so good and the main thing is to ALWAYS keep your face out of the sun and to wear big hats even under beach and pool umbrellas.

She also always wears full make-up whenever she is outdoors.

I have followed the same regime since a late teenager and it is the only thing that really works. Most people presume (visually, if not athletically!) that I'm at least 20-years younger than I am. I NEVER tell them differently! My skin a fabulous with no lines or bags.

Joan swears by:

# Nivea 2-in-1 Face Cleanser and Tonic;
# Charlotte Tilbury Night Cream
(she says it avoids needing Botox);
and
# Vaseline as a barrier.

None particularly expensive.

For my part it has always been Olay (then Ulay) - first the Milk, now Regenerist.
Always full makeup.
Always a wide brimmed hat (throughout the year)

And a good hairdresser and hair colouring helps (Joan always wears wigs outdoors).

All thanks to my Nana who told me when I was 18 that - 'the time to start looking after your face is when you're young not when you get old' (she always used Ponds Vanishing Cream).

Joan is Joan. What you see is what you get.
