She continued, “We’re gonna age, things are gonna go south and it’s ok and it’s a part of life and I feel more human and more vulnerable every year of my life, but I also know how to appreciate every year more and more, too.”
This isn’t the first time that Barrymore has talked about her views on plastic surgery and aging. In a 2019 interview with Glamour, she similarly talked about her “extremely addictive personality.” While Barrymore has experimented with drugs in the past, she said, “I’ve never done heroin and I don’t want to get plastic surgery because I feel like they’re both very slippery slopes. I feel if I try either, I’m going to be dead really soon.”
Barrymore has embraced aging instead of “chasing some unnatural beauty.” She will experiment with makeup, though. “I have dark circles under my eyes,” she revealed. “I was at my dermatologist’s recently who said to me, ‘Can I shoot some Juvederm up there? It will raise the skin and it won’t be so sunken, which is causing the darkness to look worse, because it’s lower than the natural light that is hitting it.’ And I went: ‘No, but I’m gonna go home and start highlighting under my eyes, so thank you for the tip!”
