Naomi has had work...and she didn't have children. Look at the women on Realhousewives of Atlanta...they look their ages, not 10-20 years younger.
LOL at using the women of the RHOA as your examples

FYI Kim Zolciak is 34 and yet she looks 40-something.


And Naomi Campbell has denied having cosmetic surgery and even sued a doctor who made those claims. The fact that she is aging gracefully is a foreign concept to some but to others its simply the norm. I see nothing unusual about Naomi's youthful appearance because the Black women in my life have been blessed with graceful aging as well.

Anyone else notice this?
City air has to be so bad for your skin/body.
It's the metals from air pollution. That's why it's important to wash your face thoroughly at the end of the day. Usually if I don't go out again after work, I would try to wash my face when I get home.

4. Be happy
5. Exercise
6. Stay out of the sun
7. Use sunscreen daily starting in your teens
8. Educate yourself on what is best for your skin.
Good list.

Sleeping on your back and not on your side so one side of your face isn't crushed helps too.

Why, the RHOA aren't real women?

And there's no denying that Kim Z looks old for her age. I never stated otherwise.

Ever see photos of Naomi without makeup or weaves?

And you're going to tell me she's not doing Botox injections? Or she's not using laser therapy for her skin??? Please.

And this us why she sued:
the supermodel has adamantly denied receiving Botox injections, although she said that using her name without her consent to endorse products was the main reason why she was infuriated.

BTW, I don't need to look at examples from people on television (or elsewhere), I can simply look around at the women in my family, friends and at myself. No need for botox/fillers/laser therapy etc and still no wrinkles.

And wow...you certainly do seem to be highly invested in making your point against Black women who are known to age well. Stating that Black women age well is not meant as an insult against women who are not Black.

But oh well, what ever makes you feel better...

WTF?!? That's a bit of a jump, don't ya think?

If my posts are what you consider "highly invested," then you need to get out more.


And BTW, your post in regards to aging well has a link to celebs.

I posted pics of Naomi Campbell 20 years apart, discussed the ageless women in my own family and posted a link about Black celebs who have aged well....really did not think that anyone would be "huffed" about it.

BTW, I get out often enough to understand that your comments revealed far more than you actually realize.

And my posts regarding Renee and Michelle?? And if you think my posts are huffed, then you're misinterpreting my tone because this thread us hardly "huff" worthy.

And your family wasn't mentioned until after my opinions on Naomi.

How you can interpret my posts as being racially motivated is beyond me.
