"When I look at pictures of me in my 30s or in my 40s, I see myself more beautiful than I saw myself at the time," she lamented. "I used to criticize myself so much. Now when I look in the mirror and there are things that I don’t see, I think about how much I’m going to like me in 10 years."
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Hayek revealed to the publication that her history with and use of beauty products stretches as far back to her early teens, when she used to sneak behind her parents’ backs to don makeup.
"I started wearing makeup at 14 but tried to pretend that I wasn’t wearing it because I was not allowed," the "Savages" actress explained. "I would clean the brush of the mascara and very lightly pass it over my lashes. I would put some sheer lipsticks on and then dab it off and rub it on my cheeks. Always making sure there was no glitter in it."
