Jada Pinkett-Smith had fans assuming the actress went back in time age-wise on Wednesday, July 28, after she uploaded a new selfie showcasing what she deemed was one of her flaws.

The 49-year-old said in the caption while displaying her newly shaven head, “When you return to yourself but become a tad cross-eyed in the process😆 Happy Wednesday ✨.” Immediately following the upload, fans bypassed Pinkett-Smith’s imperfection and marveled over how youthful she appeared in the simple snapshot. One fan went as far as to ask if the mother of two has had “any work done,” or if she has aged well.”

“She never ages.”

“Sis you look more beautiful every day your age has not traveled to your face, leaving any woman jealous 🙌.”

“Black don’t crack, it ages just like wine.”

“I say this in all humility and love… My gosh, you aged backward. You look fresh, illuminated, and YOUNG!!! 🙇🏾‍♀️.”

“Soo did she get any work done or, is she just aging gracefully?”

Pinkett-Smith revealed her skin routine last year as she uploaded a video featuring her and her daughter Willow Smith. In the caption, the “Set It Off” star shared with her fans details of how she maintained her ageless appearance. She stated that steaming was “one” of her secrets despite visiting her “aesthetician twice a year.”  

“Steam is one of my secrets and you don’t need a steam room. Boil water … pour it into a bowl … put your face over the bowl and throw a towel over your head. Sit under the towel for 1-2 minutes. This process helps to keep skin moist … to pull out impurities and to open pores to put nourishment into the skin.”

Pinkett-Smith closed her sentiments by emphasizing the importance of diet as the “Red Table Talk” host disclosed that she consumes eight to nine bottles of water daily. “I drink at least 8-9 bottles of water a day (sometimes more🙃) I don’t drink soda or juices. Water is really ALL I drink. DIET IS SO IMPORTANT! We’ll get more into that … later.” 

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
