OHMYGOSSIP — Selma Blair “stopped looking in the mirror” after undergoing treatment for multiple sclerosis (MS). The ‘Cruel Intentions’ star – who has had a bone marrow stem cell transplant and other procedures since she was diagnosed with the neurological condition in 2018 – insisted it became “too much effort” to scrutinise her appearance and she doesn’t think she “missed” staring at her reflection. She told America’s Instyle magazine: “After I had treatment, I’d honestly, like, stopped looking in the mirror. My hair was short, I was bloated, I had alopecia on my lashes and my face. And it was all so much effort — I sometimes don’t see well — so I just stopped, and I didn’t think I missed it.” But the self-proclaimed “fashion girl” insisted she has never viewed looking after her appearance as “frivolous”. She said: “I’ve never thought of fashion, make-up — really, any of our ways of self-care and presenting ourselves — as frivolous.” The 50-year-old actress – who has 10-year-old son Arthur from a previous relationship – has had to rethink her entire wardrobe since her diagnosis. She said: “You find the things that don’t have the buckles or the bells and whistles in the same way.” And Selma has embraced walking with a cane and using it as a fashion accessory. She said: “I was so happy, because it meant I could wear my heels.” The ‘Legally Blonde’ actress was delighted to come across Guide Beauty – of which she is now CCO – because their products are designed to be accessible and guide the hand to better and easier application. She said: “It was a real turning point for me. It was like, ‘OK, let’s start waking up again.’… “It could let me dip my toe back in the water of caring for myself in a way and feeling supported.”
