Michelle Pfeiffer has confessed that she may have let herself go during her break from acting.

The Stardust actress took a four-year break from making movies and admits that she doesn't get too fussed about looking after her looks when she is not filming.

Pfeiffer told the Sunday Times: "I can go months or years without having a manicure. I never pluck my eyebrows. The make-up artists shape them only when I am doing publicity.

"I don't get my hair cut between films, just when I work and I have to. As far as body maintenance goes, I do eat well and exercise. I go at it hardcore in the gym, but that's about it."

The Hollywood star also revealed that she would never consider plastic surgery to preserve her looks, commenting: "I don't think anyone is going to be condemned for a little something done here or there but people have lost sight of what is beautiful."
