30 Women of All Ages Share Why They’ve Never Had Botox

Skincare routine: “I remove my makeup with coconut oil-based face wipes and then apply argan oil as my moisturizer instead of a commercial brand that may include alcohol as a drying agent. I have oily skin, so it seems counterintuitive to apply oil, however I find that my skin doesn’t produce as much oil when it’s kept very moisturized. I also live in a very humid climate most of the year, so having the oil in my pores before I apply my makeup keeps it from soaking in or sliding off in high temps.”

Why I’ve never had Botox: “I don’t like the way it looks. I’m all about smiling and don’t like when I see people whose muscles are frozen in place by toxins.”

Open to it in the future? “Only for medical purposes — never to reduce wrinkles.”
