Most people cannot imagine a movie with Julia Roberts without her smile. The Hollywood leading lady is now 55 years of age, and gradually, old age is catching up with her.

Roberts decided long ago that she would allow herself to age gracefully because she wanted to be a role model to those insecure about their looks.

However, the "Pretty Woman" star, a spokeswoman for the beauty brand, Lancome, stated in October 2014 that it would significantly affect her Hollywood career. Still, her choice not to have any work done to her face was a conscious one:

"By Hollywood standards, I guess I’ve already taken a big risk in not having a facelift, but I’ve told Lancome that I want to be an ageing model."

The Georgia native can now be seen in public with her bare face with no makeup. In March 2020, Roberts shared selfies of herself rocking stunning makeup-free looks while isolated during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.

She wore a long black coat dress with matching shoes in one photo and carried a side bag. Roberts wore her blonde curly locks down with her gorgeous face stealing the limelight.

Another picture showed the Academy Award winner beaming, looking au naturel while donning a black sweater and denim shorts, sitting on the lawn.

In December 2019, the Oscar Award winner visited Vietnam with former First Lady Michelle Obama to encourage girls' education there.

In one of their outings, the "Notting Hill" star sported a beige shirt and accessorized her look with glasses. Once again, she had no makeup on and had her hair worn down, which showed a few gray hairs.

When Roberts and her husband, cinematographer Daniel Moder attended the Kennedy Center Honorees at the White House on December 4, 2022, she ditched her blonde look. She stepped out with her brunette hair which she parted in the middle.

For the occasion, she donned a black blazer paired with a long matching dress with different politicians' faces printed on it. She went for a natural look.

Another one of her recent public outings was on October 17, 2022, when the BAFTA Award winner stunned in a long pink silk V-necked dress during the premiere of her latest film, "Ticket To Paradise."

Roberts opted for a less glamorous makeup look, had her hair dyed in red, and had matching earrings to her gown for the evening event as she widely smiled for the camera. Because of her age, her wrinkles were apparent in the pictures.

Even when not on the red carpet, Roberts continues to rock makeup-free looks. She once posted a snap of herself with her bare face while wearing glasses in a floral dress and had her curly hair on display.

When the three-time Golden Globe Award winner celebrated Thanksgiving in November 2021, she shared a sun-kissed makeup-free photo in another floral outfit paired with sunglasses and a beanie. "Feeling grateful and thankful. Happy Thanksgiving to All," she captioned her post.

Roberts has been going out with her fresh face for years. In November 2014, she went to watch her son play soccer in Malibu, California. She dressed casually for the family outing, sported sunglasses, and had her dark hair tied in a ponytail.

The doting mom went for a similar look in November 2019 when she stepped out for a walk at a skate park with a friend with no makeup in Malibu, California.

Roberts proudly shows off her surgery-free face on numerous occasions. In August 2010, she went to the "Eat, Pray, Love" movie premiere and flaunted her beautiful physical features. The star has held People Magazine's Most Beautiful Woman In The World title five times.

Roberts on Family & Looks

In December 2013, the mother of three spoke candidly about her appearance at home, which differs from when she is working on set. Roberts divulged that her two older kids were beginning to get a sense of what her job entails:

"They know it involves makeup because it's the only time they see me with makeup on. They are starting to put it together, but it's a funny thing being an actor and having your kids understand what that means."

Roberts spoke frankly about the societal pressures women in Hollywood face regarding their physical appearance in August 2010. She said it is a shame that they choose to go under the knife, depriving themselves of the opportunity to see what they would look like as they age:

"I want to have some idea of what I'll look like before I start cleaning the slates. I want my kids to know when I’m pissed, when I’m happy, and when I’m confounded. Your face tells a story."

In addition, the award-winning star Roberts opened up about her skin routine in October 2019 and revealed she keeps it very simple because she also ensures that her kids get ready every day:

"On a regular day, I'll just brush my teeth, wash my face, and apply sunblock. I'm a busy mom."

As she explained before, one of the reasons why Roberts does not want Botox on her face is for her three kids, twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, and youngest child Henry. "You make these people, and you love them, and you want them around for a thousand years. And you want to be there for them for a thousand years."

In April 2017, the acclaimed star revealed her spouse taught her the most about beauty and said she could not describe it: "I don't know that you can put it into words, but that's what your person does for you, in ways clear and unclear," she said.

The "Erin Brockovich" star has multiple body-positive quotes, and one of them includes appreciating herself through different stages of her life. She does not want to look back ten years from now, thinking she should have appreciated herself more when she could have.

How Roberts Keeps Looking Youthful despite Her Age

Roberts has a holistic approach to looking good, including a beauty routine, a healthy diet, and workout sessions. For lunch, she has, grilled chicken with a salad; at dinner time, she indulges in salmon with avocado and brown rice; for dessert, she only has a cookie. Additionally, she and her family once followed a gluten-free diet.

Moreover, when it comes to exercising, Roberts does yoga and plyometrics. She stated, "after 90 minutes" of the workout, she usually expresses relief that she has completed the activity.

While in her 40s, Roberts admitted that she enjoys "getting older" because "you are released from certain concepts." In April 2012, she was pictured in Hawaii wearing a bikini while on a family vacation.

She credited an easy regime of Pilates, water workouts, and healthy eating for her fabulous physique. Concerning her motivation for staying in shape, Roberts mentioned the advice of a nutritionist, Carrie Wiatt, the head of the food delivery company Diet Designs.

Roberts started working with a personal trainer, Kathy Kaehler, to remain in shape for her stint in 2001's "America's Sweethearts" and has stuck with the regimen ever since. She once praised Kaehler, saying working with her significantly changed her life.

She participated in water exercises, and Kaehler herself once explained that people can do a lot of activities in the pool in terms of workouts, including "walking, marching, running, cross-country skiing, kicking, leaping – even crunches."
