At the beginning of his conversation, Guthrie said that Porizkova is “leading the way” in “59 years”, to which Porizkova replied: “I am almost 60 years old! I have two months of 60 years and I am very excited. I have never been so Excited for a birthday in my life. “

She continued: “I have paid my quotas. I raised my children, I have had a family, I have been the wife, I have done everything that society expected of me and do you know what? It is my turn. ”

Guthrie praised Porizkova’s perspective and her fight against the “looks young.”

“I feel we are so afraid of wrinkles,” Porizkova replied. “Have you noticed that? We are so terrified by wrinkles because I suppose wrinkles make us no longer relieve, they are no longer sexy, no longer desirable, and as women, that has been a kind of presentation card, the labels together with us for so long “

“I keep looking at the wrinkles, minimum, yours, any woman I see, and I think, ‘It’s your map of life. I see how you are as a person. Why would you want to erase it? ‘”, Asked. “Why do we wrinkle in the same torque as acne?”

That is why Porizkova is so happy to now be associated with Estée Lauder as an ambassador of the global brand in advocating ageism. “I am so excited that Estae Lauder has discovered this same beauty that I still see in me,” he said.

“Working together with them, I can spread my message more than we are the best we have been and that we should not be dismissed,” he added. “At age, society says: ‘Women, go to the Pasto’, we are saying: ‘No, not so fast.'”
