Obviously, her hair stylist doesn't believe in using hair spray or a good brush, like Mason Pearson, otherwise he wouldn't let poor Maxima look like she had a really rough night with that hair. And her make-up... it's all smudged and sloppy looking.

Exagurating is a craft on its own isn't it.I bet she looks better then some here,really do,would love to see some pics of all of you and hold them next to Máxima,talking about a "climate-change"....

Ouch! Meow. A little below the McQueen belt ain't it, Lucien? Why take ones comments/perspectives so personally? It's not you they are talking about nor does it affect you in any way shape or form. Besides, it's an opinion not a fact.

Now, on to your implied question: Well, you can count me. I already posted my image here, and yes, I am younger than Maxima (and, no, I am not a teenager.) As for her wrinkles: I don't mind them... they suit her (as I've said about a billion times.) If she ever got rid of them, well, she wouldn't be the same (obviously.) There is more to looks in life, and Maxima has proven that time and time again with not only her "work", but with her charm as well as engaging personality. Which is one of the primary issues as a Crown Princess after all, now isn't it? On the other hand, she should fire her hair stylist because this messy look is not working for her thus whispers from some royal watchers will continue.

Goodmorning gorgious!

No,I know it's not me they talk about,but it's that general trend to critisize for critisize sake only,you know,it has head nor tail,just blabbering.
Awfull,dislike that.Suppose I skip reading this sort of threads before it adds any wrinkles to my happy appearance.....

Oh you are right,she has proved she's more then just a catwalk cat,she's the brains among her equals.Our jewel in the Crown.

Perhaps, and if you do, continue to read these sort of threads, it will. If you are constantly shocked by members comments, thus causing you to raise your eyebrows every five seconds, then go to your doctor, stat, and commit yourself to the Obagi treatment. Six weeks later your lines have vanished and you'll look eight years younger. Or, just inject 12cc's of Botox and voila! A nice frozen face devoid of lines!

On to Maxima, I believe she is the most charming princess and is a great asset to the royal family. Simply put: The people and the family are lucky to have her. But, ugh :sigh: dear god... sometimes she looks like a hot mess. I'm tempted to send her stylist a book on grooming tips as well as a Mason Pearson hairbrush and Frederic Fekkai hairspray.

Though messy hair, hardly any make-up, Maxima tends to step out in full confidence. She seemed full of energy at the event. Thanks all for the pictures.

I second that GT, She is a very cheerful, happy person, anyone would like to have her in the family.
Her only prob she has is that she doesnt take care of her hair at all. Please include a few hair pins, maybe she can use them for good use

**GlitteringTiaras** · #28 03-28-2008, 03:37 AM

Hmmm, I see black heavy smudge around her eyes and burnt orange eyeshadow. It's not my taste, personally, but at least she isn't wearing pound cake foundation. Oh well.

**Marengo** · #29 03-28-2008, 06:34 AM

Maxima's hair and style remains a mystery to me, at times she can outshine anybody and usually she looks like a mess, too many things going on and the hair and make-up are probably done by herself too (the Queen usually 'does' her own hair too). And she usually uses too much bronzer on her face but forgets the neck. And apart from that, the Natan clothes are becoming a bore, considering that each Benelux princess (and Grand Duchess) has worn something simular in a different shade.

Luckily for her (and us) she radiates energy and has a lot of charisma (even more so on film and in real life). She could be dressed in a paper bag and nobody would care the least. Another thing is that the wind in this country is usually very strong and that Dutch women usually prefer the hair to be a bit more 'nonchalant' than for example American women do.

Does anybody know more about the campaign of the Orange fund btw? A national campaign usually has people collecting money door-to-door, like the Anjerfonds of Prince Bernhard. Will there be any commercials on television and such? The Orange Fund usually is a bit more low-key so such a thing would be a big step.

Well, you will never see me with messy hair like this. I would not dare to leave home like this.

But yes of course you are all right about Máxima's carisma. She manages to glow even when her look is a mess.
Anyway: With a proper hairdo she would glow even more. :P

I love this coat! Colorful and funny.

It has always been one of my favourites!

Carepark sounds a little like "put a nickle and a dime in and open your mouth and we feed and groom you while you wait".Or is read as carpark,like Wendy did....

Messy hair or deep wrinkle, with that ever lovely smile, she is still the beautiful princess.

Don't tell me you talk out of experience,silly girl,you're way too young to have all these works done,and I wanna look my age,not 8 years younger.Would attract botox fans,gawd awfull things on two legs.Shocker,with my vast vocabulary and good taste.

What does Frederic Fekkai's spray do that others don't,excuse my innocence?

Yes Maxima's hair looks a mess sometimes but for me she will always be the most admirable Crown Princess.
But for those who thinks her "deep wrinkles" are a flaw in her appearance whatever happened to growing older gracefully? What sort of message would Maxima be sending out to all those who admire her and look up to her if she got botox and face lifts to keep her "fresh faced"? It would be like saying you are only beautiful and presentable when you have a pristeen face even if it is not truly your own. What a role model she would be then

Maxima is confident and comfortable in her own skin the way she is and that is something that IS admirable

How can I say this delicately... I loathe Feminists, but I'm going to ask you politely, one time only mind you, but... don't ever call me that again.

Thank you.

Generalization.

Maxima is very bright, capable and hardworking. She seems to enjoy what she is doing and her enthusiasm is contagious. She has three beautiful children and her husband appears to adore her. The Queen seems to have a very good relationship with her daughter-in-law. So what about messy hair. It is probably nicely combed when she leaves for her engagements. With her energy am I suprised anything stays in place. We should heap praise on her for the great job she is doing - being a non-royal and foreigner yet embracing her new country and role. Perhaps a new thread should be started for Maxima's hair and wrinkles for anyone considering it worthy of a lengthy discussion.
