'This Is 60': Porizkova Reflects on a Life of Lessons

Paulina Porizkova is proudly showing the world what 60 looks like. On Monday, July 28, the supermodel posted two striking photos of herself on Instagram. One in a white bikini posing on a beach bed, and the other taken in her dimly lit bathroom, makeup-free and relaxed.

“This is me. Vacation, pretty light, posing for a shot,” she captioned the first photo. “This is also me. Home, not great light, not posing. This is 60.”

In her heartfelt caption, Porizkova opened up about what six decades of life and aging have looked like for her.

“This is 60 years of sometimes healthy eating, sometimes not,” she wrote. “60 years of sometimes working out, sometimes not. 60 years of doing the right things followed by doing the wrong things and over again and again.”

She continued, “It’s 60 years of learning of what works and what doesn’t. And just as I think I’ve figured it out, everything changes and I have to start again.”

Ultimately, she concluded, “The beauty of 60 is that now I understand the importance is IN the lesson, not passing the exam.”


No Filters, No Makeup, Just Paulina

Porizkova used several hashtags to confirm that the photos were completely unfiltered and makeup-free. She has consistently reinforced her commitment to honesty and self-acceptance.

This message is one she’s proudly echoed since turning 60 in April, often speaking publicly about aging, beauty standards, and the power of authenticity.


“Wrinkles Are Your Map of Life”

During an appearance on the TODAY show in January, Porizkova challenged the fear society places on aging, especially for women.

“We’re so terrified of wrinkles because I suppose wrinkles make us no longer relevant, no longer sexy, no longer desirable,” she said. “And as women, that has been sort of our calling card — it’s tagged with us for such a long time.”

“I keep looking at wrinkles — mine, yours, any woman that I see — and I think, ‘It’s your map of life.’”


From Supermodel to Self-Acceptance Advocate

Having built her early career selling a youthful ideal of beauty, Porizkova is now embracing the next phase of life with a fresh perspective.

“The best part is you finally turn into the person that you were meant to be all along,” she told Harper’s Bazaar in April. “And perhaps that’s not always a happy finding. But I think if you try to live your life with an understanding that other people matter, that connections matter, and that love matters, then you won’t be disappointed with who that person is that you truly are.”

In a 2023 interview with People magazine, the Estée Lauder alum shared her reason for posting unfiltered photos.

“As soon as you start filtering yourself or auto-tuning your photos and stuff, well then, it’s not really all that authentic anymore,” she explained. “I feel a responsibility to put myself out there as I am.”
