“I’ve just done it and I’ve played with it,” Anderson told the outlet for a digital cover. “I’ve nothing against makeup, but I felt like it just looked better on me in my 20s than it did now."

“You’re going to hit a crossroads in your 50s, and you go, Am I going to chase youth? Am I going to be miserable? Or am I going to be self-accepting?
