Does Felicity Huffman rock the 'tox?

partner

There's a reason that I saved Felicity Huffman for the last of our Desperate Housewives HD Makeover series: I love her so much that I have a hard time taking an unbiased look at her, even if to judge her skin routine. I dutifully downloaded a super high-res image of her lovely face and stared at it for five solid minutes. I zoomed the image, blew up her photo until her face was 30 times bigger than life-size. This photo is so clear that I can actually see the teeny tiny hairs on the underside of her nose and you know what? The woman's skin is pretty flawless. Granted, she's no stranger to makeup (check out her look without eyeliner) but her forehead is smoother than Nicole Kidman's. Does this mean she rocks the 'Tox? I want to believe that she doesn't. I really want to believe, Felicity!

OK, losing a little of my idol worship, the skin on her cheeks is kind of freakishly smooth, like she's been exfoliating like her life depended upon it. I'll bet she loves her Clarisonic so much that she's given it a name. I wonder if she's been checking out these convenient Shiseido Bio-Performance Super Exfoliating Discs?  Maybe Felicity has oiler skin, judging by the size of her pores, but there are tons of products on the market that can gloss over those bad girls.

The Huff does have a few smile lines around her eyes, as would be expected in a woman her age, but nothing egregious. However, if she wants to freeze time, she needs to look into treatment like this awesome all natural Ren Lipovector. For red carpet events or High Def TV appearances where every wrinkle looks like a trench, I probably would bust out a quick fixer like the unbelievably pricey Dr. Brandt Crease Release or the much cheaper DermaFreeze 365, which has almost the same stuff in it, but at a fifth of the price. Somehow I'd like to think that Felicity would be happier with the bargain version. She seems like a Drugstore Cowgirl, doesn't she?

    Dude, you're obsessed. What freak stares at somebody's face for 5 mins blown up to analyze their facial imperfections? What kind of hipocrite are you? This article is in Shine, whose staff routinely touts the amazing "step forward" of child sacrifice, I mean, a woman's right to choose. And yet you spent how much time and energy judging some celebrity's face?

    Women should not be judged for how they age or prefer to age. Gracefully or not, let it be each woman's choice, if you prefer that verbage. Don't knock her for her wrinkles. Don't knock her for hiding/removing/surgically altering her wrinkles. This much focus is why we're obsessed with looks in the first place.

    No one would do this to a man.
