What is with Lauren German's face?

wowthose are her real lips and real eyebrows. She used to pluck her brows more, but these are the same features she had as a child. I posted a pic of her (from Instagram) as a child with the exact same eyebrows and lips. If you thnk she's had botox, I think you're grasping. She clearly takes care of herself and people with botox can still move their eyebrows. It's a fallacy that they can't. Botox relaxes the muscles, doesn't make them immovable. Unless you've gone way overboard, and then it's obvious, like when Nicole Kidman admitted she was addicted to botox and you could tell by the angry bird look. Lauren doesn't have that look, and is also capable of scowling, she just doesn't do it a lot.
Those are NOT her real eyebrows. They are quite definitely drawn on.
Look at the cheesecake pinup picture which looks like it was taken 20 years ago. Her eyebrows are antenna thin. Look at the picture you posted of her with the necklace. Drawn on and filled in to look thicker.
Her lower lip also looks odd. Like lip plump injections. Again, the pinup picture her lower lip is not as big. And why is there a line across her lower lip? It's like they filled in lipstick past her lipline.

So like I already said, for a while, she plucked her eyebrows a lot thinner, when that was the fashion. Now, she leaves them natural, which is the fashion, but of course, she probably has them threaded and fills in with eyebrow pencil like actresses do, and many American women do as well who want to look their best. I do. I guess that makes me eligible for body shaming too?
Oh, I have also gotten botox for migraines, and I know for a fact, it does not freeze the forehead or make it impossible to move my eyebrows. In fact, I don't like how it relaxes the inner corners of my eyebrows down (one of the reasons I've corrected that with threading and brow liner), but that's the price I have to pay to have fewer migraines.

That was 30 years ago! LOL. My hair and eyebrows were thicker then too!
She's pushing 40 and overplucked her eyebrows back in the day which is why she has to fill them in now.

They're filled in because they're sparse. They do that in Hollywood. It's called makeup. IOW, not real.

Yeah, I guess you know everything. Funny how her make-up artist mentioned Lauren's "amazing eyebrows" on social media. But I'm sure she's delusional, too.

Of COURSE she's going to say that. She wants to keep her job, right? And get another one some day?
LOL. Jeez, centrd, you believe EVERYthing these people say? If so, I'd like you to meet my boyfriend. He's a French model.

Oh and not just the show's makeup artist, but cast members, Aimee being the most recent I think.
I wish I had Lauren's brows, mine are so lightly colored that you can hardly see them at times. Hence the brow liner. And as I used to lecture my girls, and
finally
they believe me, overplucking is a huge mistake. My kids used to claim that I was obsessed with eyebrows, but now they get it. I can't help it, it's my art training. Brows frame the eyes and set off the face. Natural brows are so much better than thin, artificially arched brows. I just can't unlearn the principles of portraiture and idealized form that I've been taught. That doesn't mean that there isn't all kinds of beauty. Almost everyone is beautiful if you really look. This is why I love to sculpt people.

I'm sure this could differ based on what doctor is injecting it however the closest to my eyebrows botox has been injected is my hairline. Unless a doctor were to use an absurd amount and botched it, it wouldn't come close to the eyebrow line.
It can also actually cause temporary paralysis - usually not in cosmetic cases or for migraines though. Anyway I am glad it helps your migraines and it can be a real medical miracle for so many people.
Anyway, Lauren is beautiful and I don't understand the hate she gets.

Really? That's interesting.
Yeah, the FDA directs exactly where you get the injections, and the doctor cannot deviate from that if insurance is involved. It's specifically injected in the inner corner of each eyebrow and the very center of the forehead. And then neck muscles, shoulder muscles, etc.
The sad thing is, I had a cosmetic surgeon do it for migraines once, paid out of pocket because my insurance was hassling me, and she did it further across the brow toward the outer edge, and it worked SO much better and used less botox. But of course, Government gets involved and screws it all up. I've begged my doctor to move it further out but she'll go like a 16th of an inch max.
I really don't think it's paralysis, although it's sort of a reverse paralysis. The way my docs have explained it, it over relaxes the muscle so much that it's harder to usebut the muscle is not frozen, it's relaxed. Of course, accidents do happen and the muscle can get over-relaxed. A friend of mine had her whole eye droop and had to wear a hat for 3 months to hide it, until it wore off.
The reason Nicole Kidman had that angry bird look was at least partially because the inner corner of her brow is relaxed and droops slightly down. I know, because that's what Botox did to me and I couldn't stand it. Everyone, including my kids, swear I didn't look different but I could see it. I felt like I looked mad. I haven't had an injection for about 6 mos now and I'm much happier without the angry bird brows.
I don't think it was working all that well anymore. If I do it again, I'll probably go back to the cosmetic surgeon instead of my neurologist. She seemed to have a better feel for what actually works, since the FDA's not telling her what to do.

Jesus why do people feel so entitled to critisize how someone looks? Why does it bother you people? Why does it matter? How does it ruin your life in anyway? Get over it. Get over yourselves. Stop being so judgemental. Who are you and how special and gorgeous are you all to out down someone else's appearance? Put up photos of yourselves if you're the bastion of perfection. No? Not going to? Why the hell not? LET'S SEE YOU ALL.
