You don’t get a very open and comprehensive interview with Robin Wright that often so, when it does come, it’s a pleasure to read. The “House of Cards” star sat down for a chat with The Telegraph and went on the record with the maintenance work she has on her face on the regular.

Of course, we all know that most celebrities, both male and female, get a lot of Botox, fillers and plastic surgery trying to maintain their youthful glow and wrinkle-free complexion. We also know that few actually have the guts to admit to it.

Not Robin, though. “You bet. Everybody does it,” she tells the magazine.

“I suppose I can’t say ‘everybody’ because I don’t know for sure, but come on… It’s just the tiniest sprinkle of Botox twice a year,” the actress explains. Sprinkles are actually quite popular.

“I think most women do 10 units, but that freezes the face and you can’t move it. This is just one unit, and it’s just sprinkled here and there to take the edge off. Perhaps it’s not wise to put that in a magazine? But I ain’t hiding anything,” Wright continues.

Also on the topic of beauty, the actress says cutting her hair short is the smartest thing she’s done in her life and that she would never think of growing it out again.

She also gushes about her fiancé Ben Foster and explains how he came along just when she had decided she would never marry again because she would never fall in love again, after her divorce from fellow actor Sean Penn.

Speaking of Penn, Robin admits that seeing her marriage fall apart was very difficult, but that they never gave up on it without putting up a fight. The fact that they have kids together made them get back together several times before calling it quits for good, but the star says they’re all in a happy place now.
