"I think the great thing about being a woman, turning 30, is that you understand that you're not living your life for your parents or your peers. You're living life for yourself," she said. "There are too many young women who are cutting up their faces, and it makes me sad, and they all look the same."
That same year, Wilde penned an open letter to women approaching their 30s. She encouraged them to embrace aging rather than choosing to "cut" their faces.
"I am so saddened and grossed out by young women who look like creepy, old aliens because of their new Barbie noses and lips. Is that a smile or a grimace? Did you melt hot wax on your face, or is that your skin?" she told Glamour.
She added, "A better approach: Take care of yourself now that you're old enough to know how. Drink water, sleep eight hours (I wish), and don't go within 400 feet of a tanning booth, or I'll slap you. Hard."
