Cameron Diaz Stopped Caring About Her Image After Retirement; Here's Why
Cameron Diaz was one of the actresses adored by fans for her natural beauty and radiant skin. However, when she left Hollywood, she also stopped caring about her image; what happened to her?
In an appearance on the new BBC podcast "Rule Breakers" with Michelle Visage, the "Charlie's Angels" actress gave an update on her life after dropping her acting career.
Despite owning "billions" of skincare products, the 49-year-old star said she never washes her face and "rarely" thinks about what she looks like whenever she faces people.
Per Daily Mail UK, Diaz considered Hollywood as "a trap," which she left in 2015 after getting married to her husband, Benji Madden, and had children.
In addition, the actress claims she was a "victim" to all of "the societal objectifications and exploitations that women are subjected to."

She also considers herself as a "wild animal" and a "beast" for not following the same routine she did when she was still in the industry.
Since Diaz has ditched her looks, "The Holiday" actress said her number one priority today is to "stay strong" as she's approaching her 50s.
Why Did Cameron Diaz Leave Hollywood For Good?
In a previous conversation with her good pal Gwyneth Paltrow, as reported by Vanity Fair, Diaz hinted why she decided to take a step back from the spotlight.
She noted that she "got a peace" in her soul because she's finally taking care of herself.
In an interview with Kevin Hart for his talk show, the actress also opened up about her decision, saying she wanted to make her life manageable by herself because it's the best feeling.
Per the outlet, Diaz has reportedly rejected million-dollar offers since leaving Hollywood, but it appears that she doesn't have any regrets.
The last time fans saw the actress on the big screen was the film adaptation of "Annie," in which she played the role of Miss Hannigan.
