About a week ago, screen siren Mariel Hemingway<\/a> shared a photo<\/a> on her Instagram account, writing in the caption her thoughts on aging, wrinkles, and the woman she sees in the mirror.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have been talking about aging lately. But today it is not aging,\u201d she wrote on Feb. 26. \u201cIt is wrinkles. The lines around my mouth I swore I would never have. The soft crepe skin at my neck that seems to appear overnight. The mirror catching me in light I did not ask for. Some days I do not care. Other days it feels like a punishment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Today, the Lipstick actress, 64, posted another photo (seen above), still filter-free and bare-faced, but this time, sharing the \u201csurprising\u201d thoughts she had following the post that made her \u201cnervous.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to share something that surprised me this week,\u201d she wrote in the caption. \u201cI posted a photo of my face with no filter. Just me. My lip lines. The soft folds in my cheeks. The changes that come with time. And I have to be honest. My body felt nervous when I shared it. Not because of the photo itself. Because of the stories behind it.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added, \u201cFor many years I recognized a certain version of myself in the mirror. A familiar image. A familiar identity. And lately I have been looking and thinking this woman is different. \u2026 Part of me wanted to hide. But I stayed with the discomfort. And something beautiful happened. I started to feel more like myself.<\/p>\n

Hemingway broke onto the scene in 1976 at age 14 with her role in Lipstick, for which she received a Golden Globe nomination. The breakout performance led to decades of film projects including starring alongside Meryl Streep<\/a> in 1979\u2019s Manhattan, Christopher Reeve in 1987\u2019s Superman IV, and John Mellencamp in 1992\u2019s Falling From Grace.<\/p>\n

Hemingway\u2019s last project was the 2023 romance drama God\u2019s Country Song. She portrayed Sara Bryan, the mother of the film\u2019s main character, Noah Bryan, played by Justin Gaston. In the coming months, she has Land of Wolves, a film co-starring Tyler Lepley (Harlem), Tabitha Brown (Will & Grace), and Luis Moncada (Breaking Bad) releasing, per IMDb<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A mom of two, the Oscar-nominated actress shares daughter Dree Hemingway with director and producer Stephen Crisman. Dree is currently starring in Love Story: John F. Kennedy<\/a> Jr. & Carolyn Bessetteas Daryl Hannah<\/a>, who recently wrote a scathing essay for The New York Times<\/a>, slamming the depiction of her and JFK<\/a> Jr.\u2019s relationship.<\/p>\n

Still, we can’t help but think Mom is one of the show’s biggest fans, as she is an avid supporter of her girls<\/a> on Instagram.<\/p>\n
