Revealed: The secret to Lindsay Lohan's youthful appearance at Freakier Friday premiere
Lindsay Lohan showed off her youthful and very taut face at the Hollywood premiere of Freakier Friday this week - and the secret to how she achieves her glow has now been revealed. The Mean Girls actress, 39 - who recently made a rare comment on her 'public downfall' - has sought treatments from Beverly Hills dermatologist Dr. Monika Kiripolsky. On Monday, the dermatologist uploaded a selfie alongside the actress following an appointment in preparation for Lohan's red carpet appearance at the El Capitan Theatre. Kiripolsky wrote, 'When your patient is literally the star of the show… and also the glow. ✨ Always an honor to treat the radiant @lindsaylohan - proof that great skin is ALWAYS in! 'From Mean Girls to mom glow… she's still got that Lohan luminosity. Can't wait to see her shine (and swap lives?) in the upcoming Freakier Friday - her skin's already ready to rock that red carpet.' Social media users flocked to the comment section to share their thoughts on Lohan's flawless skin, with some asking the specific treatments that the mom-of-one has had. However, the dermatologist replied that 'due to patient confidentiality, I can't say what treatments I've done. 'But, EVERY patient in our practice is offered the most cutting-edge combination of lasers, peels, injectables, lipo, and other amazing treatments... Always customized to that particular patient and his/her goals.' Lohan began to appear on Kiripolsky's Instagram page last year, and the actress herself has also credited the celebrity dermatologist for her radiant skin. During an interview with Byrdie earlier this month, the star expressed, 'I'm also big on staying consistent with my routines so I feel my best. 'That includes regular visits to my Los Angeles dermatologist, Dr. Monika Kiripolsky, whenever I'm in town for work.' Lohan continued, 'She helps keep my skin healthy and glowing especially during breaks from heavy on-set makeup.' While talking to Elle back in May for a cover story, the actress addressed plastic surgery rumors after photos of the star went viral last year over her youthful transformation. The topic was brought up when Lohan revealed that she has been in the process of potentially creating her own beauty line. 'It's taking a long time because I'm very specific, because I'm crazy about my skin and health,' she explained. SNL star Chloe Fineman - who interviewed Lindsay - complimented Lohan on having the 'skin of dreams.' In response, the mom-of-one stated, 'Everyone does Botox,' before Fineman encouraged the actress to share some of her beauty secrets. 'Oh, God, I don't even know how to answer that. I drink this juice every morning. It's like carrot, ginger, lemon, olive oil, apple. I also drink a lot of green tea, a lot of water. I'm a big pickled beets person, so I put them in almost everything. 'My skin care is very specific. I'm trying out some serums now that I'm doing - I'm testing them,' she continued. 'Also, I'm a big believer in ice-cold water on your face when you wake up. I drink lemon juice a lot; I also put tons of chia seeds in my water. Eye patches, I do every morning. I'm into lasers.' In regards to her 'glow-up,' Lohan also shared the negative side to it. Her publicist chimed in to say, 'Yeah, but you know what the problem is with you being beautiful women - the second she looks any different, they assume she had her face lifted at 37 or 38, that she ripped apart this or that. It's so mean.' Lohan then added, 'I'm like, when? With what time? Where?' It came after her dad Michael confirmed that his daughter has had cosmetic treatments done. During an interview with Page Six last year, he denied that Lohan has undergone plastic surgery but said she has done 'peels, fillers and Botox.' 'Lindsay never had any plastic surgery done ever. Her look [is] so natural - just like her talent.' Earlier this week on Tuesday, the actress turned heads as she attended the Hollywood premiere of Disney's sequel Freakier Friday at the El Capitan Theatre. She stunned wearing a pastel pink gown that flowed down towards the ground and contained sparkling details on the material. Her blonde locks were parted in the middle, and cascaded down past her shoulders in elegant waves. Lohan was joined by her rarely-seen husband Bader Shammas - whom he tied the knot with in 2022. The couple also share a son named Luai, two. Lohan has reprised her role as Anna Coleman in the upcoming film, alongside Jamie Lee Curtis, Chad Michael Murray, Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Julia Butters and Ryan Malgarini. The premise is: '22 years after Tess and Anna endured an identity crisis, Anna now has a daughter and a soon-to-be stepdaughter. 'As they navigate the challenges that come when two families merge, Tess and Anna discover that lightning might strike twice,' per IMDB. The fantasy comedy film, which was directed by Nisha Ganatra, is set to hit theaters next month on August 8.

Why Do Millennials Look So Young? A Dermatologist and Stylist Explain The TikTok Mystery
Why do millennials look so young? TikTok is posting about it. Reddit is discussing it. And Google is going googoo over it. Seriously—the query has skyrocketed up 1,140 percent since last year. As an (apparently) weathered Gen X reporter and millennial ally, I wanted to explore the secrets of this demographic, born from 1981 to 1996 (now 29 to 44 years old), who are getting noticed for looking younger than not only previous generations, but also Gen Z, the generation that was minding its own business growing up, and is now 13 to 28. Yep, there's the idea that millennials look younger than generations before or after…which, if true, is an interesting concept and begs the question of why. So, leaving aside the raised eyebrows of my generation and the questions of how this may be a widespread millennial confirmation bias and why 'looking young' is a goal anyway (I'm a older Gen Xer, so I've settled into my crows feet a bit by now), I turned to a stylist and a dermatologist to get the story on how and why millennials look so young. Millennial Moms Love to Blast Boomers on TikTok (But Here's Why I Think They've Got it All Wrong) Meet the Experts Dr. Kellie Reed is a board-certified dermatologist who practices at Westlake Dermatology in Austin, Texas. Dr. Reed specializes in aesthetic skincare and general medical dermatology. In her practice, she uses an artistic eye for using neuromodulators (botox, dysport), dermal fillers, laser and more. Samantha Dawn is a personal stylist and style coach with personal clients worldwide. She's been featured in Harper's Bazaar, InStyle, Good Morning America and more, and has styled on sets of shoots for major brand companies. Do Millennials Really Look Younger Than Previous Generations? Paramount Television Judging by classic TV, you'd have to say yes. For example, Ted Danson was 35 and Shelly Long was 33 when they began filming the hit show Cheers, which aired from 1982 to 1993. By today's standards they look a solid ten years older than people that age today. 'Mind blowing! Frazier at 27 looks like he is middle aged. says one Redditor. 'I have been watching Cheers since I was 6 years old and outside of Woody, they all seemed like they were in their 40s the whole time.' Why? According to Dr. Reed, as a dermatologist she sees sunscreen usage as the top factor in how old someone looks. 'Sunscreen and sun protection is the number one tool to keep a youthful glow, minimizing melasma, sun spots, fine lines and expediting collagen loss,' she says. While Boomers and Gen Xers didn't have doctors and media messages telling them to wear sunscreen at all times, millennials were slathered with sunscreen by helicopter parents and then took over the job themselves. Dr. Reed says that style choices also impact the perception of age. 'Millennials have delayed adulthood (mortgages, children, etc.) and also tend to keep up with current style trends,' she says. 'Previous generations typically changed their style and vibe once they entered parenthood whereas many millennials will still keep in line with current trends including hair, piercings and clothing choices. This overall appearance of dress or presentation can make someone appear more youthful.' Is Gen Z Really Aging Faster Than Millennials? Dr. Reed sees cultural pressures and lifestyle aspects as contributing to Gen Z aging faster than millennial (TikTokker Jordan Howlett's post about being a rapidly aging Gen Zer has 3.6 million views). 'It's thought that Gen Z is a more stressed generation, and this can show on the skin via increased cortisol levels. Increased cortisol levels affect collagen and inflammation,' Dr. Reed says. But today, we have lots of dermatological interventions to reverse signs of aging, right? Yes, according to Dr. Reed, but 'Gen Z also has access to more tools—fillers, Botox, lasers, etc. at a younger age. These things are great when used appropriately and in moderation. Filler or Botox overuse can paradoxically make someone appear older.' So, Why Do Millennials Look So Young? Besides taking care of their skin, millennials may look so young due to psychological aspects. Stylist Samantha Dawn shared a tantalizing perspective: 'Millennials are at the point in their lives where they've done a lot of self-reflection and healing. This journey has allowed themselves to do things they maybe weren't able to do as a child, such as wearing make up, having tinsel in their hair, having fun toys their parents would have said no to and wearing clothes that actually make them feel the way they want to,' she says. 'As a personal stylist that incorporates psychology in helping women find their style, a lot of my clients are millennials," Dawn explains. "Majority of the time, what they're missing in their style is the personal part of it. A lot of what they end up wanting in their style, is what they weren't able to have when they were younger. For example, a lot of my clients are craving more femininity in their outfits. It makes sense because as a child, they were taught being feminine is "weak" or that they would get unwanted attention. Now millennials know their power and they are all owning who they are confidently.' To which I say, I knew it: Blokette Core is a strike against the patriarchy! Bottom Line Personally speaking, in the whole 'millennials look younger than any generation ever has or ever will,' I think there are equal amounts of truth and confirmation bias. As a Gen Xer, I say this from my own perspective—I remember what it was like to turn 40 and think, wow, I don't look like what I thought 40 was going to look like. But, frankly, it was as much from staying out of the sun, not having enough money to inject too many substances into my face (only a few!) and a penchant for aping what the kids were wearing. (Yep, I have a Labubu on my bag right now, and 40 was a long time ago.) However, I do think that there's more pressure on Gen Z these days than was put on millennials, Xers or boomers, and that's showing up in all kinds of stress reactions, including sleep disruption, vaping and poor nutrition, which all show up on the skin. Additionally, Dr. Reed reports that today, misinformation may be a roadblock to solutions. 'There are myths circulating how sunscreen is only needed when outside or on sunny days (UV penetrates clouds and windows so SPF is needed daily) or opting out of sunscreen due to misinformation regarding it and/or thinking SPF in makeup is good enough (its not),' she says. Noted: And it's worth remembering that SPF is not only an anti-aging strategy—it prevents skin cancer. Ultimately, I stand with the balanced perspective of Redditor OK-Avocado464: 'A lot of aging is just genetic but people act like it's some personal failure if someone looks old. I even saw this TikTok where this older lady was showing how her skin looks at her age without any filters/surgery/etc and the comments were vile, saying she needs to wear more sunscreen even though she looks completely normal for her age and in my opinion was very pretty but people are so online they forget what real faces look like up close without any blurring filters.' We're all beautiful, people—now let's put some SPF on the next 25-year-old Gen Zer we see. TikTok Is Begging Millennials to Stop Doing *This* When Applying Their Makeup Solve the daily Crossword

Comedian looks almost unrecognisable in fresh-faced throwback snaps as they joke they're sending photos 'straight to a plastic surgeon' - but can you guess who it is?
A popular comedian has stunned fans with her youthful appearance in a slew of throwback snaps shared on her birthday this week. She's beloved for her unfiltered and quick-witted routines and is frequent panelist on a number of well known British comedy panel shows. And after she recently revealed that she is currently pregnant with her fourth child, her eldest daughter took to Instagram to share a number of photos of them together to mark her mother's birthday. The photos taken in her late twenties, showed the funnywoman looking much more fresh-faced from her usual glamorous self that fans are used to seeing her with on TV and stage. Captured moments included in the shots saw her sweetly cuddling and reading stories to her baby daughter, with her followers gushing over her youthful beauty and causing the TV star to quip that she would be sending them to a plastic surgeon. But can you guess who it is? That's right, it's Katherine Ryan! The Canadian star celebrated turning 42 on Monday, with her daughter Violet, 16, leading the birthday tributes. In the caption of the gallery of photos of her and Katherine from her childhood, the teenager wrote: 'Happy birthday to the woman who taught and raised me to be a baddie (with no help)'. In a sweet response, Katherine - who welcomed Violet at just 25 years old - replied: 'I truly killed this assignment and you are the proof ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️'. Fellow comedian and writer Sharon Horgan - known for creating the likes of Motherland, Bad Sisters and Catastrophe - was one of the first to comment on the star's youth, writing: 'You were just a baby xx'. And displaying her clever wit, Katherine quipped back: '@sharonhorgan these pics are going STRAIGHT to a surgeon'. The star has been open about having gotten breast implants in 2004 as well as Botox and fillers, regularly poking fun in her comedy about amount of plastic surgery other people claim she's had. Last year, she hit back at accusations that she'd 'had too much filler', as she reflected on how quick assumptions are made about celebrities' looks. In the caption of the gallery of photos of her and Katherine from her childhood, the teenager wrote: 'Happy birthday to the woman who taught and raised me to be a baddie (with no help)' Appearing on Amanda Wakeley's Style DNA podcast in October, she explained how during her second pregnancy she'd had to take steroids, which 'makes you gain weight in a strange way'. Katherine went on: 'It was so weird and I looked so different. I had the audacity to continue to go out in public and film and to do stand up. 'Loads of people on social media were like "Oh, she's done too much filler" or "sh's really ruined her face" - kind of the way people speak about, I mean I don't think I'm out of turn saying Simon Cowell sometimes.' 'Or even David Beckham now, or Zac Efron. People are starting to talk about men and filler, and I think who knows who's done what? 'Sometimes you just gain weight or you age and it looks like it. They'll take a photo of you from twenty years ago and go "Oh, look what she's done" - I'll tell you what I've done is I've lived a hard life for the last twenty years and raised three children, I look different. 'But I wasn't doing anything at that time and obviously Nina [her cosmetic surgeon] is such a professional, I couldn't do anything when I was pregnant or breastfeeding.' Reflecting on the work she has done now, the comedian admitted that she still has some Botox but wouldn't be able to 'hold filler up' now. She explained: 'And now on the other side of 40 with my anatomy, if I had a strong Kylie Jenner jawline it might be different but I don't, and I think fillers, I don't think I can hold them up - for my anatomy. 'So now I'm really interested in a little bit of Botox here and there, not too much with babies, because babies need you to move your face.' Amanda jumped in with: 'But also, doesn't your audience need you to move your face?' 'No, they like the Botox I think,' joked Katherine, 'I'm robbing them of an experience cause now I can't really do the jokes about Botox'. It comes days after Katherine revealed she is pregnant with her fourth child, and third with her childhood sweetheart Bobby. The couple are already parents to son Fred, three, and two-year-old daughter Fenna, two, with Katherine welcoming Violet in a previous relationship. She has been open about her fertility struggles in recent years, revealing in 2024 that she had had three miscarriages in five years. Speaking in November, Katherine admitted she would love to have more kids – but was worried about her age. 'I'm old. I used to think I was going to be the babies' dad because I'm working but actually I'm like their grandmother,' she quipped at the time. 'My back hurts, sometimes I give them treats. I'm like a fun grandma.' The comedian also revealed in March 2025 that she was battling melanoma for the second time. She made the revelation in her podcast, Telling Everybody Everything, explaining she paid to have a mole removed from her arm and learned it was cancerous. She added that she required more surgery to ensure the entire mass had been removed. The star is gearing up for another busy period of work, embarking on her Battleaxe comedy tour this month. She also hosts multiple podcasts, including her most recent What's My Age Again? - a 'refreshing and humorous take on ageing, wellness, and self-discovery.' The TV star revealed in 2022 that she had kept her second pregnancy a secret because she was scared it would lead to her losing work. She was eight months pregnant when she presented ITV's Ready To Mingle, a fact that she hid from everyone. Katherine and her husband Bobby have been together since 2018, but have known each other since they were children as they grew up together in Canada. Childhood sweethearts, the two parted ways initially before rekindling their romance this side of the Atlantic. The couple revealed in the latest series of the family's reality show that they 'wanted the option of having a fourth [child].'

I'm 52 but look DECADES younger – I avoid too much makeup, ‘trashy' ripped jeans & a crucial mistake my mum always made
A WOMAN who regularly gets told she looks 20 years younger has revealed her number one anti-ageing tricks - including keeping her hair long and watching Love Island. Nerys Middleton, 52, says people often assume she's in her early 30s – and believes it's partly down to her long locks and youthful outlook on life. 4 4 4 4 The mum-of-one says she doesn't believe in following old-school rules about what women should look like past a certain age. 'People tell me they think I'm in my 30s because of the way I am,' the fashion influencer, from North Wales, told What's The Jam. 'I hang around with people in their 30s, so they talk about what 30‑year‑olds talk about, like Love Island. 'I say to my older friends, 'Have you watched Love Island?' and they're like, 'God no, I wouldn't watch that.' 'It's just little things like that. 'People also tell me I'm too old to have long hair, but when you look at people like Cindy Crawford, they all still have long hair, haven't they? 'As long as it's healthy and you look after it, there's no reason it can't be longer over 50. 'Cutting it short is an old‑fashioned thing my mum did.' Nerys says she spends about £400 a month on vitamins, skincare and beauty treatments – and sees it as part of maintaining her health and confidence. The mum ensures she uses retinol and vitamin C treatments alongside CO2 laser facials and hydrofacials every few months. I'm 50 next year & don't have a single wrinkle thanks to a product from Boots or TikTok shop - I've never had Botox She's also been getting Botox in her forehead since she was 29, wears SPF 50 every single day and doesn't drink or smoke. But Nerys says keeping a younger mindset is the most important part of maintaining her youthful looks. She said: 'Mostly it's my mindset. I think if you think old, you become old. 'If you start thinking, 'Oh God, my back's aching, my legs are aching,' you start dressing old, you start acting old. 'I think it helps if you have younger friends. 'Most of my friends I met through work are younger than me and we get on because I have a young mindset. 'My older friends are all married and settled – a bit fuddy-duddy. 'I spend a lot of time with young friends. We go on holidays, we go clubbing in Budapest. 'I wouldn't go away with people my own age; they don't like going out and partying. 'I think it's not just about looks, it's how you act. Because I've got younger friends, we talk about younger things and I spend a lot of time with them. Three hair mistakes that are making you look older THERE are some hair mistakes to avoid if you don't want to make yourself look older than you actually are: One dimensional hair colour - it's a good idea to visit a hairdresser to get your colour done. Using a box dye can leave you with one block colour, so steer clear. Hair that's too dark around the hairline - "Add softer, lighter tones and shades around the sides of the face to bring lift and life to your eyes; too dark a colour will do the opposite and feel very gaunt and dreary," Jack Howard, UK colour spokesperson for L'Oreal, said. Sticking to the hair colour of your youth - While you might have looked good with jet black hair in your 20s, the same may not be said now you're in your 50s. The general rule is that your hair colour should lighten with age, just as your skin tone does. 'My older friends talk about what they're crocheting.' Nerys says she also religiously stays out of the sun, doesn't drink alcohol and steers clear of junk food – all in order to feel and look her best. Style-wise, she avoids florals, ripped jeans or anything that feels like she's 'trying too hard'. The mum said: 'It stems down to clothes and things like that. 'Try and keep make-up to a minimum and see what trends are out there; see what other women are wearing. 'But don't follow like a sheep – try and think of trends yourself. 'I stay away from anything floral unless you have a really young face. 'Stay away from ripped jeans and ethnic shorts because they make you look like you're trying too hard. 'It's the balance in between. You can either look frumpy or look trashy. 'I'm trying to tell people about this balance that's in the middle that can make you look classy, sophisticated and young. 'It annoys me when people say, 'You don't look 52' and I think, no, I shouldn't – I work hard to look the way I do. You have to.'

I always get mistaken for a child… people offer me kiddos colouring books – they're stunned when they find out my age
A WOMAN who gets ''mistaken for a child'' has left people with their jaws on the floor after revealing her actual age. Beauty buff Darcei, from the US, is currently exploring London with her family - however, the wholesome holiday has left her fuming. 2 The skincare and make-up guru claimed that in just three days, she was allegedly mistaken for a kid a whopping ''ten times''. One such instance, the pint-sized beauty shared in a now-viral video, took place at the airport lounge whilst the brood was waiting to board the plane. ''We meet a person who's on the same plane as us and she turns to me and asks 'Are you done with school already?','' Darcei was stunned. ''As we're getting on the plane, the flight attendant has those bags that you give to eight-year-olds. ''She offers me one of those bags and I said 'No, thank you' because I'm not eight years old.'' As another cabin crew member walks around with a tray of champagne glasses and water, Darcei was shocked that she was only offered the latter - and not the bubbly. However, the troubles only got worse after the jet-setters landed in Paris, France. Patiently waiting in the adults-only line where a machine would scan her passport, the holiday-goer was once again approached by staff who thought she was underage. ''One of the agents comes over and he's like 'Are you over 18?' ''I'm like 'Yes'. He asked me twice - just to make sure.'' I lost 6st with fat jabs but ended up with 'Ozempic face' – I got youthful look back with six make-up tricks In the video, Darcei, who is currently travelling with her cousins, also revealed her true age - which is 33. ''Is it the hair? It's the hair, isn't it?'' wondered Darcei who was rocking two cute French braids, a pair of denim shorts and a baggy light pink T-shirt. Why is turmeric good for anti-ageing? A study published in the Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests that turmeric and curcumin may help prevent DNA damage and aid in DNA repair. This is promising news for disease prevention and slowing the ageing process. It also: Boosts Collagen Production: Collagen is a protein that maintains the skin's elasticity and firmness. As we age, collagen production decreases, leading to wrinkles and sagging skin. Turmeric helps stimulate collagen synthesis, thereby promoting firmer and more youthful skin. Improves Skin Health: Turmeric has been shown to improve various skin conditions, such as acne, psoriasis, and eczema. Its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties help soothe the skin, reduce redness, and promote a clearer complexion. 'The face gives baby face' Since being shared online, the rant - posted under the username @ missdarcei - has taken the internet by storm, winning Darcei a staggering 2millin views in just one day. After learning her real age, more than 211k people gave the video a like, as a further 6.8k flooded to comments in total disbelief. One said: ''You could be 12 or 30. I have no idea.'' Another chimed in: ''It's the hair, the fit and the height I think.''
