The multi-faceted artist shared a reel showcasing her simple skincare routine. The short clip, however, sparked mixed reactions on social media. In the video, Anderson, who adorns a well-fitting gray vest begins by applying a serum to her face. She followed up with a moisturizer and then finished with a moisturizing lip balm—all from her Sonsie line.

She captioned the post, "@sonsieskin turns 1 year old today!" She then expressed her gratitude for the brand's growth. "Our little family is getting bigger and bigger and I'm so grateful for all of you who have joined us," she wrote.

Yet, Anderson's loyal fans quickly came to her defense. "You are inspiring and look gorgeous," wrote one admirer. Another praised her natural beauty, saying, "I love the fact she is natural." One more fan expressed admiration, "Omg I wish to look exactly like her when I'm this age."

Despite the criticism, Anderson's resilience and dedication to self-care continue to inspire many. The "Barb Wire" star has gained a wealth of wisdom with age. In March, she shared an insightful post about what she's learned, emphasizing that growing older has humbled her.

She expressed that instead of chasing grand achievements, she's learned to appreciate the small joys in life, "Alone time, enough sleep, a good diet, long walks, and quality time with loved ones." She concluded with, "Simplicity becomes the ultimate goal... ✨🤍"

Practical and realistic about aging, Anderson views anti-aging promises as misleading. She recognizes that aging is an inevitable part of life and has learned to find humor in it. Despite public opinions, she has cultivated a strong sense of self and learned to be her own best friend.

Anderson isn't afraid to showcase her natural look even in high-profile events. At the 2024 Met Gala, the actress made a sensational entrance. She rocked the red carpet with her minimal makeup, marking her first appearance at the prestigious event.
