Drew Barrymore shared her secret for aging gracefully in a question and answer session with members of The Drew Barrymore Show audience on Friday. 

The actress, 50, who revealed she had a breast reduction at age 17, spoke about coming to grips the the little lines on her face. 

‘Can you let us know your secret to aging gracefully and being so comfortable in your own skin?’ a woman asked.

‘I haven’t done anything and I want to try and stay that way,’ she told the crowd.

‘But I also am like, do whatever works for you. The only thing I do know is don’t judge other people because they do things differently,’ she explained. 

‘We’re all on our own path and we have to support each other,’ the Whip It director said, admitting she has her own struggles.

‘I see a lot of turkey neck or I have a lot of other time where I’m like “Oh Wow, we’re there now.”‘ 

As for being self-confident, Barrymore said ‘I want to tell myself not to be so mean to myself.’

‘How many beautiful moments do we even get the privilege of seeing our reflection and that person looking back at us is us?’ she asked.

‘So the kinder, more patient, more resilient, more loving, embracing, less dismissive that we can be, the better it is for our mental game and spiritual game, which affects the face.’

Explaining some of her own philosophy the mom of daughters Olive,12, and Frankie, 10, said, ‘A smile is better than any lipstick you’ll buy.’

She also spoke about self-talk and having an ‘internal dialog that isn’t so eviscerating of ourselves and so quick to catch a flaw.’

The Never Been Kissed star then asked rhetorically, ‘who says that’s the flaw, by the way? That might be someone else’s favorite thing about you…how ironic,’ adding, ‘It isn’t how you look, it’s how you feel.’

Fans who saw the clip online loved her admonitions.

‘Agreed. I say do you! Love yourself and do whatever it takes to do that. No judgement ❤️,’ wrote a viewer. 

‘You are such an inspiration! I am so nonjudgmental, except when it comes to myself. I have been for my whole 61 years of life,’ wrote a follower, adding, ‘I’ve never been pretty enough, skinny enough, smart enough, good enough etc…. I wish I had heard your words so many years ago. ❤️’

‘This kind of beauty is the one that deserves global recognition, not the aesthetic one. More minds like this one!,’ advised a fan.
