Jennifer Hawkins - plastic surgery or good makeup?

MysTerious · August 10th, 2009, 07:01 AM

I found this photo on a website & thought I would see what everyones thoughts are.

Obviously the first photo has no makeup - the makeup makes a huge difference, especially the eyebrows, but her eyes look a little lifted?

What do you think?

I think it may be a little bit of filler on her top lip, and maybe some fat removed from her upper eyelids, but that's it. The rest is a makeover. She has beautiful bone structure and looks like she has lost some weight and glamorized her look.

She seems a little young for stretching and pulling. A little restylane in the lips maybe but other than that, she's probably natural. She's very young and the lighting is good.

Looks to me like a brow lift & some filler in her top lip

How old is she in the first photo, though? She looks about 18 there and people's faces are obviously going to change with the passage of time. In the second photo she's wearing makeup, she's more tanned, her eyebrows have been shaped differently, the lighting and quality of the photo is better, plus she's older.

Also, in the second photo she knows how to pose and be at ease in front of the cameras. She seems more shy in the first - her mouth is kind of smiling but the rest of her face looks uncomfortable. I don't think they're before and after plastic surgery photos. The difference is probably due to the fact that they're before and after winning Miss Universe photos.

oh wow looking at the first pic, you'd never guess she was a future miss universe

I see good eyebrow tweezing, a tan, and some veneers. The rest is just make-up, I think.

I don't think it's PS. She's learned to smile more openly and has had her eyebrows dyed/shaped. That, plus good makeup, lighting and she's a older. It's funny - if the "before" Jennifer walked past you on the street you probably wouldn't look twice.

it doesn't look like surgery to me either.

i totally agree with you on the bolded bit.. it just kind of reinforces my belief that most people with good styling, makeover etc. would look celebrity hot.

katerpillar I think you're right - she does look about 18 in the first pic, but remember she won Miss Universe when she was only 20.

I agree about the lip fillers - but it's only subtle. The eyes however, I just don't know. The new eyebrows make it seem deceptive, but the fact you can see more lid makes me feel like she had a lift. Yes, her head is tilted up more though.

Might have to find more pics!

That's a good photoshop to me

How old is she in the second pic, though? And at that age, even just a couple of years can mean a change in appearance (without even adding the other variables). Like the last of your teenage puppy fat goes from your face, that kind of thing.

BlameItOnVanity - nah, I don't think most people would become celebrity hot even with good styling etc. "Before" Jennifer was still prettier than the average. It just means the difference between "good looking" and "stunning".

And her prettiest feature is her smile, really. She's not smiling properly in the first photo. When she smiles I have a major girl crush, I've got to admit.
