Real Housewives of New York star Jessel Taank isn’t shy about sharing the details of her beauty routine. The 45-year-old mom of twins, fashion publicist and the founder of Ōushq recently spilled the tea on Page Six’sVirtual Reali-Tea,” opening up about her experience with Botox Cosmetic, filler and veneers.

“It just so happens that when you watch yourself on television, you notice everything,” she told the outlet. “So I was like, ‘You know what? I’m just going to tweak a couple of things.’ Also, like, who doesn’t get Botox? Who doesn’t get a little filler here and there?”

Taank’s candidness follows a comment from RHONY castmate Brynn Whitfield, who said that Taank got a “new face and teeth” during the second season of the show. (“There’s going to be a lot of work that has to be done to get her trust back,” Taank told Page Six regarding the comment.)

“I’ve gotten Botox since I was 26. It is a game changer,” Taank continued in conversation with the outlet. “I’m not a gatekeeper and I’m certainly not the type of person to be doing all these procedures and not talking about it. So I talk about it on my social [media]. I don’t want people to ever feel like I’m doing things behind [closed doors]. I get it, we’re on television. It comes with the territory.”

She also addressed the comment about her teeth, telling the website: “I did get veneers. My dentist is amazing, Dr. Victoria Veytsman. She’s the best, she does every celebrity,” she said. She further revealed that this wasn’t her first experience with dental work: “When I was a kid, I was running by a swimming pool on vacation and I slipped. I slammed my mouth on the concrete and so I actually had to get cosmetic resurfacing or reconstruction [on my teeth] or whatever.” (Yikes!)

We love Taank’s refreshing transparency—it’s a reminder that owning your beauty journey, tweaks and all, is something to celebrate.
