A wonderful piece of writing, thank you. I am back from a wonderful trip to England and hugely grateful to live in this quiet corner of France where nobody has botox. I have had to navigate so many questions from the children on peoples faces and why they don't move, why their lips are quite so big and why the eye lashes are so incredibly long. I'm so grateful these standards of beauty are not a part of their everyday world for the time being, I've not discovered why yet but suspect the the laws here are tighter on these cosmetic procedures. On a recent trip to Spain they noticed similar standards.
