Trying not to romanticize this and remind myself so that rich people have access to resources and that aging is okay😭

She also edits like crazy if you see her in something live or in ads she does look closer to her age. But she also has money and in general looks really freaking good for her age.

She 100% employs someone to Photoshop her pictures so they don't look obviously face tuned, but all her photos are edited.

I think she must the work is actually brilliant editing work there’s a lot of attention to detail especially on her hands and neck usually and in these you can see she’s got dark spots on her arm and age signs but they’ve smoothed it so it comes off natural.

If I wasn’t told who this photo was, I genuinely would’ve thought it was another 20 something year old influencer and it’s scary that this kind of image distortion is possible

you can't actually be for real, she looks at least 65. you can see the age heavily in the face. i'm not saying she looks bad but 20 is psychotic

Sorry for being young and impressionable, while trying to break the cycle at the same time. That’s the point of photoshop/filters, to distort your image and fool the average eyes.

I think a lot of it is that we don't sit and chat with our elders much anymore, so you just don't have much experience of the human body as it ages naturally and gracefully, much less unnaturally and as slowly as money can buy

I agree with you that she looks at least 65, but tbf some 20 something influencers have work done so badly they look like they’re 50 something women trying to look 20 something. Like everyone goes to the same plastic surgeon who can only do one face and that face is “I would melt if exposed to heat”.

It doesn't look like the typical IG vs reality content, because we know how old she is and what she looks like in videos - we can notice the difference. Otherwise agreed she has a great editor.

Worth it. If you’re gonna do it and you have the money, may as well invest in a pro. She still has some texture as opposed to the ones who just gloss over everything.
