The 48-year-old told the magazine that she can’t wait to get older. “And I’m excited to see what a leather bag will look like in the future!” she joked. On a more serious note, Drew revealed more reasons why he thinks you should avoid cosmetic surgery. “I have a very addictive personality, so I’m worried about continuing with this, doing this and doing that,” he shared. “It scares me, just because of my approach to things. So I hope to make some changes.

The proud mother also said that accepting aging is a “positive” thing. “It means you’re alive, you’re living, and that’s a very good thing,” Drew noted. “Accepting aging is a very positive and healthy message.” In addition to physical appearance, the Flower Beauty founder emphasized the importance of health as we age. “Health really becomes more important than anything else when there is danger,” he said. “If you are healthy you can focus on many other things, including beauty. But it’s really the most important thing of all.”

Even though the former child actress won’t have any jobs in the near future, she admitted that she still dyes her hair dark blonde. In fact, Drew explained that at this point she “doesn’t know her true color” of her. Drew is a brand ambassador for Garnier Nutrisse and often promotes the brand on social media. “I love being a Garnier girl! Happy birthday @garnierusa micellar water!” she captioned a carousel of photos on Nov. 9.

On top of all things beauty, Drew recently made headlines ahead of the end of the Writers Guild of America strike. She was targeted after she decided to continue filming her talk show. The Drew Barrymore Show, in the month of September. He also later took to Instagram in a deleted video and apologized for his decision to continue the show during the strike. “I don’t think there’s anything I can do or say right now to make everything okay,” he said in the emotional clip. Drew also expressed that she wants to take “full responsibility” for his “actions.” The talk show officially premiered its fourth season on October 16.
