Kylie Jenner has been the root of a lot of debate surrounding beauty and the effect that media has on the perception of it. Being condemned for making the foundations of her brand on the insecurities of women, the businesswoman has been heavily criticized for creating beauty standards that even she cannot meet. There have been many instances where fans have trolled her for using Photoshop and plastic surgery to look a certain way, while simultaneously making many hate themselves through her influence.
This is one of the biggest reasons why Jenner is subjected to some very harsh criticism whenever she is not looking like her best self. She is obsessively called out and put through the wringer for this, something that cannot be good for the well-being of anyone. The most recent example of this would be her appearance at Paris Fashion Week, where many referred to the 26-year-old model as looking ‘old’. A skin care expert has spoken up about this, adding himself to the conversation around this matter.
Kylie Jenner Looked ‘Old’ At Paris Fashion Week?
Paris Fashion Week is one of the most important times in the fashion and beauty industry. All of the most significant personalities make appearances, adorning finery that belongs in museums. Kylie Jenner has been a part of the guestlists at these events for more than a handful of years and the year 2024 was no different. That was until fans got their sights on her at the events. After seeing videos of her at the events, many pointed out that she looked different than her usual self.

What they found to be odd was that the businesswoman looked other than her 26-year-old self. Many have gone onto social media platforms like X to express how shocked they were to see the model at the events. They were confused as to why she looked ‘so much older than her age’. Some mentioned that they would use these videos of her as cautionary tales against plastic surgery.

Skin Care Expert Reveals What He Thinks Of Kylie Jenner Looking ‘Old’
The conversation around Kylie Jenner grew so much that skin care expert, Amish Patel, voiced his own opinions on the matter to The Mirror. He stated that the reaction that the public is having to these videos could be due to them being used by celebrities under specific circumstances, which prompts them to be very confused when they see them in situations like these.
“I think we get so used to seeing celebrities with beauty lighting and filters that seeing them in reality, such as Kylie at this show, is that they will look less than perfect. The stark overhead lighting isn’t flattering on anyone and is bound to create shadows.” said Patel
He added that there can be many different reasons as to why Jenner looks like this at Paris Fashion Week that have nothing to do with the procedures she has had in the past. He used some examples, including dehydration, lack of sleep, or a strict schedule that anyone as successful as her would have. The biggest contributor, however, could be the overhead, bright lights at the event that would not be flattering on anyone.
