Why I refuse to get Botox, by Julia Roberts

Eat Pray Love star Julia Roberts refuses to get Botox because she wants her face to 'tell a story'.

The 42-year-old wants to embrace her natural looks for her children.

Julia told US Elle magazine: 'I want my kids to know when I'm p***ed, when I'm happy and when I'm confounded.

'Your face tells a story and it shouldn't be a story about your drive to the doctor's office.'

The actress, who is the new face of Lancome, cannot understand the obsession with looking young.

She said: 'It's unfortunate that we live in such a panicked, dysmorphic society where women don't even give themselves a chance to see what they'll look like as older persons.

'I want to have some idea of what I'll look like before I start cleaning the slates.'
