Paulina Porizkova proudly uploaded photos to Instagram that captured the supermodel’s “aging” face.
She appeared smiling while wearing a bright red lip and freshly applied makeup and then cut to a video of her face completely bare. She shared that, while she has had laser work done and is an avid user of SPF, she has never put anything “into” her skin.
“This is a 58-year-old face without fillers, botox or surgery in good light,” she wrote. “Even with the fanciest creams and lasers that promise to restore some collagen — I am aging.”
“Fortunately, this change also means being wiser. And bolder,” she continued. “So I keep gulping self-acceptance.”
This is not the first time that Porizkova has opened up about her views on modern beauty standards. In October 2022, she spoke to Women’s Wear Daily about the unfair pressures placed on aging women.
“I am way smarter. I have more patience. I’m more intellectually curious. I’m more generous. Everything about me is better,” she said. “But I have wrinkles and that does not make me ugly.”
Prior to sharing her makeup-free Instagram post, Porizkova uploaded a collage of her past Vogue covers and explained the ‘dark side’ of the industry.

“They are designed to produce shame by negative comparisons and make you buy things to cover that shame… Ultimately, representation hinges on what sells. What sells is what YOU buy,” she wrote.
