Nothing\u2019s ever gone in here, you can tell. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd that\u2019s because my self-esteem is really high. I try and focus on my confidence and less on how I look.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elizabeth added about how she takes a holistic approach to her skincare, focusing on \u201chydration, more water, sleep, diet and exercise\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>\nShe said: \u201cI\u2019ve really come to understand that so much of (skincare) is what\u2019s inside as much as the outside. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cTo me, I find that when I don\u2019t go outside every day, when I don\u2019t exercise, my mental health deteriorates. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWhen your mental health deteriorates, your self-esteem goes with it. Suddenly, all my habits are out the window.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\nEarlier this year, Elizabeth said \u201cageing is a privilege\u201d, telling People: \u201cWe live in a society that loves and values youth and beauty. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cI get it. I love looking at beautiful young people too. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cI like to remind people, you\u2019re never going to look as good as you do today, right now, because aging is a privilege. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s better than the alternative, right? You want to age, trust me.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\nThe actress has been a long-time backer of ageing naturally and in 2019 told Dax Shepard she never plans to get work done. <\/p>\n<p>\nShe added on the 48-year-old actor\u2019s \u2018Armchair Expert\u2019 podcast: \u201cI\u2019m trying to age gracefully. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThat\u2019s something I will happily say to everyone like I have not put anything in my face, I\u2019ve never had a needle in my face\u2026 I\u2019m really uninterested. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cI feel the way about those kinds of (plastic surgery) doctors as I do about a lot of things, like, you are putting your livelihood and your life into their hands and who knows what could go wrong\u2026 like why am I doing that? <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAnd then I\u2019ve also had friends and my sister who like, have faced cancer and have had surgeries and stuff and you\u2019re like, why would I voluntarily put myself under a knife and like anaesthesia and all that? <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s all so dangerous, is my point.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/elizabeth-banks-puts-avoidance-botox-really-high-self-esteem-1387522.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>29 October 2023 Elizabeth Banks says her \u201creally high\u201d self-esteem has stopped her turning to Botox.
