Point taken…It was Hollywood after all…
My point: The God given faces of these people had the beauty to begin with…
Hollywood saw that and ran with it…
We can all agree…youth is the best cosmetic…
ymmv

I could have sworn I saw an article a couple of months ago saying people are getting uglier with each generation.

Well, FauxCo has stated that she was born God’s perfect cup of tea, LOL. Oh, the nerve. Is she insane?

Faux Co has mommy issues. The mother is some kind of beauty consultant? Faux Co was a homely woman. Nothing wrong with that but mama probably had work and the daughter was a reminder of it. So Co had a face transplant or the equivalent. Nothing looks natural on her. Basically, a plastic surgeon’s invention.::face_vomiting:

@Snarkypants ……I think you may have hit the proverbial nail on the head……and I wonder if her family and yes, even her husband, sadly, encouraged the transplant. Very Twilight Zone-like. Sometimes truth really is stranger than fiction. :exploding_head:

I guess it’s a case of beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I’ve seen older pictures of Courtney and to me she was the opposite of homely. I thought she was naturally pretty. Unfortunately she’s had so much done, there’s not a lot of natural beauty left. I especially don’t understand why she blew up her lips. All of her features were fine before.

Respectfully though, true beauty is a matter of science/math………proportion. Science, math and proportion were not on FauxCo’s side……even though she would try to convince you otherwise. God’s most perfect cup of tea, my arse.

Agreed - In our culture the concept of a beautiful face is one that has symmetry and certain proportions. That concept is still subjective though, which is why I thought Courtney was pretty before she had any cosmetic procedures.

When people are insulted for the features they were born with it goes from snarky to mean. I am guilty of doing it! But when the same things are said over and over and over, it’s just basic and boring insults instead of funny snark.

Guilty as charged but when QVC gives Co Co beauty shows and acts like she is some great beauty? Sorry, she is just the product of some expensive plastic surgeon’s vision. Nothing she’s selling at QVC made her look the way she does now. Just a lot of paint and false promises. :face_with_diagonal_mouth:

And the really - really sad part is that all these women who get all the phony shit done to their faces, when they get older they will wind up feeling 1000x worse when it all caves in then the way they felt before all the silly shit was done to them … you have seen the circus freaks like Joan Van Ark and others … disasters … can’t even look at them.

That’s a great point about Courtney. It’s a big turn off to me too. I lost my faith in the Dr. Denese brand when it became glaringly obvious Dr D had a lot of work done, all while giving the credit to her anti-aging products.

I think that ALL of the hosts and OAPs are making false promises to varying degrees but especially on the beauty shows. Almost all of them look their true age and a few look older despite having access to multiple high end brands.

It’s interesting to me how Coco tries to convince the audience that her beauty is a result of the products she’s selling. The deception is there and Coco deserves a lot of snark for this.

I picture “innocent” Mary Beth as the trainer for new sales hosts, teaching a class called “How to Hoodwink the Customer for Honest Sales” (hoodwink is a word MB would use and then cackle). Cosmetic surgery is one of the topics. She probably teaches a refresher course “Gaslighting Techniques for the Trusted Host” for older sales hosts too.

I would not insult FauxCo for the features she was born with, but rather for changing those features so drastically, then pretending they’re natural. IMO, she insults her “born with” features more than any snarker possibly can……is she so silly as to believe she’s fooling everyone? If this is boring, I apologize. Her over the top materialistic character disgusts me, and I’m perplexed as to the many supporters she has.
