What has she done to her top lip?


Got a touch of the Lesley Ash about her these days. Real shame as she's always been so naturally beautiful.

I was just wondering the same thing... shame, she was probably fine without anything done to it! Wish these actresses didn't mess with their looks so!

I saw your post as I am watching Anna's new Netflix program, Marcella (2016). Here I am thinking, "How can this woman look homely, yet lovely at the same time?" Then I noticed her top lip. Looks like some sort of damage.

I made a video grab: https://vimeo.com/173291708

I dunno. Whatever it is, it must have happened awhile ago as it looks the same in several still photos over the years...

The upper lip is a mystery indeed.
It has the tell-tale duckface allure of a recent botox job, combined with some sort of filler.
It has got to be more conspicuous than what she is attempting to hide.

Totally agree about her top lip. She looked the best in her career when starring in Pushing Daisies. That and Land of the Lost I think she thought would break her out bigger in the US, since she was really only known in the UK and for some small indie movies like Me Without You with a then 21 year old Michelle Williams (was in Dawson's Creek at the time). After the show (which was brilliant) got unfortunately cancelled and Land of the Lost tanked at the box office, I've noticed her weight fluctuating from almost looking anorexic like in the films London Boulevard and The Look of Love and that when she starred in the canceled American Oddessey, her face looked off especially her lips. I noticed the nose job a long time ago too. She was already a very pretty woman but I think, like Kate Beckinsale, moved to L.A. and was told if she did tweaks to her looks the more roles she'd get. I just watched the first episode of Marcella. Happy she doesn't look anorexic anymore but her upper lip looks bad and she should just let the filler or BOTOX injections cease. I couldn't get through the first episode because her face distracted me and her acting was sub par for her (that just might be due to the trite, London, detective, antihero writing we've seen before but done better on other UK series). I really did like her, and she had so much potential, but not sure about this new Netflix show.

I agree. Why did she do that? She's so beautiful and did not need to get a duck lip implant. Now it's stiff and doesn't move and it bugs me. Why why why. Anna please get this reversed and go back to your beautiful self.

Omg o totally agree!! Have seen that you have all wrote this 4 years ago so things may have changed now, watching butterfly with my husband, he's enjoying it but I can't stop looking at how stupid her top lip looks and how it hardly moves and also how odd her accent is...could this be to do with the trout pout!?! Very sad

I don't disagree that her lips look "done" but looking back on her past photos, I don't see any difference so if she does get them done, it looks like she's been doing them for years. They look the same in 2000 as they do today. I think the fact that her cheekbones look more defined whether due to cosmetic surgery or age, is what really draws attention to them.

I thought it looks like she puts Vaseline on her upper lip all the time.
