I wish she'd bring back her 2008 look.

You mentioned the MOON/blossom covers...
Self-destruction in 5, 4, 3, 2



Anyway, I do think Ayu has aged well. At times she may look like a doli-ish (MOON/blossom covers, Love songs CD/DVD) caricature, but she looks human in real life (like in the new tour)

I don't think, Moon-Covers was a wig... it was her real hair, I think.

[SKYia]

she ages well but she makes herself ugly recently appearing too plastic, most of that is because of photoshop and some in her make up, I wish she could go back to 2005,2006,2008 look, her make up and hair were amazing, she looked gogeous no matter what she wore and now it's the other way around. I'm really not into her recent style, although she had some good moments, very few though, IMO.

She looks A LOT younger with long hair.

ugh ayu ain't no ho!

[emi♡]

^sure about that?

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^^girl...anyway, I loved the MOON covers!

[emi♡]

lol

I thought she looked nice on the moon covers.


She mostly looks old to me in like fan photos, or well, in a lot of her recent shoots. Moon is so old already.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^^I think she looks older in her candid shots, that she takes herself. Obvi since usually she has on no make up and there's no photoshop.

Only Jacket B of the MOON/blossom singles really grinds my gears.
I think Jacket D is kinda cute actually. I just wish she still sported the Rule/Sparkle look, or anything from GUILTY/Secret eras

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^^I just want longer hair, and something colorful

[RayJason]

Am I the only one who really wants more A BEST 2 shots OMFG FANBOY SCREAM

I mean, I want her to look like her A BEST 2 era *cough. You know, the exaggerated BIG eyes make up and flawless hair! So perfect!

I agree. I want Bold & Delicious/Pride/is this LOVE? hair now that I think about it. Those hairstyles were hawt.

[happiholic★]

I wanna see Ayu after she has just woken up, no eyelash extensions, no photoshop, no makeup, no instragraph or whatever. Then I can tell if she's aged well.

[Lady_Eowyn]

^Exactly.

I mean, I wanna look 20 when I'm 30 like Ayu. Does she have the elixir of life and isn't sharing?

I think it's genetic, in her case. When i have visited Japan i've noticed it's common women do no look like their real age, 40 year old women look like they are 30 something, but that has a lot to do with your DNA. Asian girls tend to have amazing skin. Of course, taking care of yourself and using money to protect you from aging is a decisive factor, but it would be stupid to assume only money can do that.

In that case, i'm definetely lucky, because people tend to mistake my real age. but i do take care of myself... my number one tip beauty is:

Spoiler:

avoid direct sunlight at all costs. It might sound obvious, but spending hours trying to get tanned is the fastest way to destroy your skin (specially if you live in a country with so much light, like in my case ) spending hours with sunlight leaves your skin totally dehidrated, no matter how much treatments you use or how much botox you put on

[letter]

^Wouldn't that also depend on the person? My mother used to sit in the sun every summer and she looks amazing for her age, all natural, with the help of some day and night creams.

[Rebirthia]

Mmm, intersting, so the discussion on the rumor Nagase x Ayu unfolds into Ayu looking young for her age.

This is true for most women, if you really think about it...
