I hate watching people with botox. It's like mannequins with speech capabilities.

Remember the film The First Wives Club? Goldie Hawn played a characted who had too many botox shots in her lips. It was hysterical.

I thought those were collagen injections.

probabbly collagen.

I don't botox was around (or at least mainstream to be funny in a movie) back then

I've looked into it but, haven't made the decision to have it done yet. The best tip I can give you is to be sure you get a reputable, licensed doctor to do it. A friend of mine had collegen lip injections and had her eyebrows and lip liner tatooed on. It was done by a "Cosmetologist", fancy name for department store make up queen, and it looked awful for the longest time.

I'm all for it.

And I hear it can help keep you from sweating too much. Hot damn!

But that woman, Joselyn Wilderstein (I think that's her name), has had a hell of a lot more than botox done. You can't raelly point to freakish looking people who have had their features toatlly reconstrcted and say "This is what will happen." Jos has has hade multiple face lifts, botox, cheek implants, collegen lip injections, just about everything one can have done.

A little bo can do wonders when it's not over done

Yes....the cat lady is well beyond botox. I want to be able to feel her face! I'm fascinated by it.

Joan is another one who has gone far beyond botox. She's also had her entire face reconstructed into something frightening. When botox is done right, by itself, it isn't noticable other than you having a slightly smoother appearance.

I keep thinking about the redheaded lady from Everwood who is now on Desperate Housewives. Nothing from the nose up ever moves. I keep thinking she's really a pod person or an android. And she doesn't seem to have a lot of obvious work done.

here's a fun fact-

The outer skin of the Slim Jim beef-like product is made of a collagen mixture very close to the one they use in cosmetic procedures.

So everytime you eat a Slim Jim, it's like taking a big bite out of a rich woman's lips.

I have two little frown lines between my eyebrows -- all that Scott Nevins talk yesterday got me examining my own forehead. I think I'm gonna go get a few needlesticks in my head and smooth it all out.

Or just another stoli vanilla please.

Zola look how great those little furrows between the brows look on Hugh Jackman. On a woman, however, it isn't attractive. I have had botox injections many, many times. I seem to be resistant to the effects because it wears off very quickly. It is very expensive.
