Jenna Lyons, the 56-year-old fashion icon, is all about supporting individual choices when it comes to cosmetic surgery. In a recent interview with People, Lyons expressed her belief that people should feel free to make decisions about their appearance without facing judgment.
“We’re all so judgmental,” Lyons said, reflecting on society’s views on cosmetic procedures. “As long as it works for you, I think people should do what makes sense for them and feels good about them. It’s a personal choice.”
Evolving Views on Aging and Cosmetic Surgery
As she navigates the aging process, Lyons admits to grappling with the changes in her appearance. Her views on plastic surgery have evolved over time. Despite her personal struggles with aging, Lyons is still open to the idea of cosmetic enhancements.
Her initial reaction to plastic surgery? “Sign me up!”
However, while she supports others’ decisions, she admits that she is wary of some procedures, such as fillers. “Fillers scare me,” Lyons shared, explaining that she values natural expressions and visible emotions on the face.
Instead, Lyons focuses on maintaining her health and skin through trusted skincare products and self-care practices.
A Self-Care Enthusiast
Lyons enjoys nurturing her body through self-care rituals, such as using body oils, taking baths, and incorporating tools like a gua sha board. One of her favorite skincare products is Shiseido Vital Perfection Uplifting and Firming Advanced Cream, which she credits for boosting her mood and improving her skin’s condition.
“For me, it’s all about the process,” Lyons said, describing her self-care routine.
Supporting Other People’s Choices
When it comes to others’ skincare habits, Lyons simply wants people to do what makes them happy. Whether it’s opting for plastic surgery, Botox, or other treatments, she encourages everyone to follow their own path. “Just do it,” she said, supporting people in making decisions that align with their personal desires.
Public Scrutiny and Self-Acceptance
As a member of The Real Housewives of New York City cast, Lyons has faced increased public attention. She admits that being under the spotlight has complicated her view of herself, especially during her first season on the show.
“I was so hard on my looks,” she confessed. “I compared myself to women 20 years younger than me. They were all much younger than me.”
However, Lyons’ perspective shifted during her second season. She received positive feedback, especially for embracing her gray hair, which was a source of pride.
Lyons explained how she sought validation for her appearance, a natural human reaction, but learned to be kinder to herself. “Now I have to be gentle with myself,” she said.
Panel Discussion on Aging and Beauty
Lyons shared her thoughts on aging and beauty during a panel at Shiseido’s Potential Without Age Summit in New York City on February 19. Along with supermodel Linda Evangelista and Shiseido Chief Marketing Officer Agnes Landau, Lyons discussed their skincare habits and feelings about beauty in their 50s and 60s.
Lyons also spoke about discovering the benefits of Japanese products, including Shiseido skincare. She jokingly noted that she trusts anything made in Japan due to the country’s renowned attention to detail.
The event also featured a discussion titled “Starring Your Second Act,” which explored how to live authentically on social media and transition to a career in content creation.
As Lyons continues to age gracefully, her message is clear: embrace what works for you and be kind to yourself along the way.
