Katie Holmes: Do you think anyone recognizes that I’m Katie Holmes? Let me just peep around… I’m sure I look more like a 40-year-old Mexican nanny than Tom Cruise’s wife. It’s definitely my forehead and how yellow my skin looks. Seriously, that Scientology makeover thing was… intense. They wouldn’t let me put any sunblock when it’s so darn sunny out, and they wouldn’t let me me just SLEEP. These panda eyes are so devotedly Scientology you have no idea. Geez the sun. Why did I trade sunblock for salvation?!! DAMN.

The first thing that came into my mind when I saw Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes is how much taller she is. But since that isn’t really news and we are FacePanda and not HeightPanda, we are going to go ahead and ignore that. But when I looked closer I couldn’t really decide what I felt about Katie’s face:

At a glance Katie looks fairly ravishing: her eye makeup is heavy but it doesn’t overshadow her whole face. The matte/nude lipstick makes her look very sophisticated – not sure whether that’s how she intends to look but it doesn’t look bad anyways. It’s also nice that she isn’t trying to smear an-inch of foundation and powder on her face for once.

But here’s just something odd about the entire combination once you start staring at her face for more than 10 seconds. Like something is off. Maybe it’s the way she smiles or her overly peachy cheeks that make her look a little… high. Or maybe I’m just too picky and unforgiving. So what do you guys think?

Katie Holmes used to look so, so, so heartbreakingly sweet. That was only 3 years ago:

I can actually understand why Tom Cruise would fall for this girl. Look at that smile! Pink cheeks, check. Smooth, clear skin, check. Lovely, natural brows, check. A tad eyeshadow to lit up the eyes, check.

Then something weird happened to her face… like mega-mega-mega-gravity. Or maybe Nicole Kidman snuck into the Cruise mansion and stole all of Katie’s Botox:

Now wrinkles, check. Plum blush all over the face, check. Droopy eyes, check. Looking increasingly like my 50-year-old mother, check. Increasing possibility of Tom Cruise jumping on Oprah’s coach for a 20-year-old-Katie-reincarnate while Katie joins the Nic’n'Demi Botox Club, check.
