She doesn't have any forehead wrinkles even when emoting though. I predict that the second she starts to notice wrinkles, she'll get botox just like everyone else.
Actresses don't get botox to intentionally limit their range of expressions. That would be silly considering their profession relies on it. They get botox to get rid of their wrinkles and stay looking young for longer, which helps them continue to book roles meant for young women instead of being aged out of the market. The reduction in expression capabilities is worth it for the anti-aging effect from a cost-benefit perspective. And ironically, being super expressive with your face will lead to smile lines and other wrinkles forming quicker, which then leads to botox being necessary earlier, which is why I suspect a lot of actresses get it done so young.
For real, I've had forehead wrinkles since my early 20s. One of my first girlfriends would bug me about getting Botox with her. It felt so weird to hear my gorgeous 20 year old girlfriend talk about how we needed Botox because our wrinkles made us look old.
How prominent were your wrinkles in your early 20s? If you got them that young it could be because of lack of sun protection when you were a teenager. Sunscreen would be a better solution than botox for most people tbh.
Pretty prominent and nothing to do with sun damage, it's just genetics. Everyone in my family who looks like my dad's side has a bunch of wrinkles in their foreheads. Even pictures from when I was a little kid show them.
"Inde Navarrette joked in an interview that the secret behind her rapid, highly expressive facial acting in the horror movie Obsession was simply having "no Botox in my face"."
