I always have sunblock on. It\u2019s been that way since I was 22 or something.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;Back then, I just decided I was going to wear sunblock every day, and I stuck to that. I also never got a tan as a kid; I had to avoid the sun or I would burn. I learned that early on.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;So, I think that really saved me a lot of problems with my skin. I\u2019ve avoided the sun forever.&#8217;<\/p>\n<div class=\"artSplitter mol-img-group\" style=\"\">\n<div class=\"mol-img\">\n<div class=\"image-wrap\"> <img decoding=\"async\" id=\"i-e6a748826dbca06c\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.com\/1s\/2026\/08\/06\/15\/110477541-16033801-Geena_looks_like_she_s_barely_aged_a_day_since_bursting_onto_the-m-17_1786026305219.jpg\" height=\"657\" width=\"634\" alt=\"Geena looks like she's barely aged a day since bursting onto the showbiz scene with her role in Tootsie (pictured in the film with co-star Dustin Hoffman)\" class=\"blkBorder img-share\" style=\"max-width:100%\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"imageCaption\">Geena looks like she&#8217;s barely aged a day since bursting onto the showbiz scene with her role in Tootsie (pictured in the film with co-star Dustin Hoffman)\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Geena also revealed that she doesn&#8217;t have a dedicated skincare plan, confessing: &#8216;<span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">I don\u2019t do anything but I\u2019ve been a sucker for buying some products I\u2019ve seen on TikTok!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">&#8216;If I hear that something is anti-aging or will make my skin better, I buy it\u2014but then I never use it! I have a whole display of these bottles on the counter in my bathroom, but I don\u2019t really use any of them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">&#8216;Thank God I can get away with it because it would be really bad if I didn\u2019t do things that would help me out if I really needed it. It\u2019s not fair, but I get by fairly well.&#8217;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Yet while Geena may look half her age, she&#8217;s proud to be a 70-year-old woman, telling Yahoo in May: &#8216;I think it&#8217;s fabulous.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">&#8216;I&#8217;ve liked myself better every year. I even think I look better every year! I don&#8217;t know if that will switch at some point. Maybe not. But it&#8217;s fun. You don&#8217;t worry about age anymore.&#8217;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">However, she has been vocal about the double standards with ageing in Hollywood.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;Women peak in their 20s and 30s, and men peak in their 40s and 50s as far as actors go,&#8217; she told the\u00a0Allison Interviews podcast.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;So the male stars of the movies want to appear to be younger than they are, or they want to appeal to younger people, so they always want a co-star who is really young.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;That is why that happens and that is why women don&#8217;t get cast very much after 40 and 50. It is because they are felt to be too old to be a romantic interest.&#8217;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>She&#8217;s been a firm fixture on screens for four decades.\u00a0 Yet Geena Davis looks like she&#8217;s barely aged a day since bursting onto the showbiz scene with her role in\u00a0Tootsie.\u00a0 The 70-year-old Thelma and Louise star boasts an incredibly smooth complexion, leading some fans to speculate that she may have had a little cosmetic help&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":30213,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/i.dailymail.com\/1s\/2026\/08\/06\/15\/110476955-16033801-image-a-8_1786025801820.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30212","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-gossip"],"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30212","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=30212"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30212\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/30213"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=30212"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=30212"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usnews-14267fa.ingress-comporellon.ewp.live\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=30212"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
