Cameron Diaz showed off her natural good looks while filming in New York City on Monday.
The 53-year-old actress, who gave up Botox several years ago, looked glamorous as she wore heavy eye makeup and a leopard-print headband to shoot romantic comedy The Sham.
Diaz – who returned to acting last year after taking a decade-long hiatus – has been open about aging gracefully as she refuses to get plastic surgery.
She was also seen with her co-star Stephen Merchant, who is the writer and director of the movie, which is about a sham marriage that develops into an unexpected romance. Diaz plays a struggling comedienne in the flick.
Later, she changed her costume and stepped out in an outfit featuring hoop earrings and a cheetah-print headband over her messy topknot.
The age-defying natural beauty paired a Coors T-shirt with a gray striped tweed sport coat and dark jeans for what appeared to be a fun scene with Merchant.

The filming comes shortly after Diaz opened up about her distaste for Botox and other cosmetic procedures, as she prefers to embrace natural aging.
Over a decade ago, she said she ‘regretted’ how Botox ‘changed’ her face and revealed she stopped wearing heavy makeup in her 40s.
‘I’ve tried [Botox] before, where it was like [a] little tiny touch of something,’ she recalled.
‘It changed my face in such a weird way that I was like, “No, I don’t want to [be] like [that],”‘ she told Entertainment Tonight in 2014.
She added: ‘I’d rather see my face aging than a face that doesn’t belong to me at all.’
A source close to Diaz also previously revealed that she used to be ‘under pressure’ to get work done, but ‘hated’ how Botox changed her natural appearance.

Cameron’s gone natural – do you rate it?
‘It’s no secret Cameron used to get a little bit of work, just like everybody else in her industry, she was under pressure to get Botox and all that stuff,’ the insider told OK Magazine.
‘But she hated how it changed her face and swore off it years ago, and it’s really paid off because she looks fantastic and very natural, unlike a lot of her peers.’
In The Sham, Merchant stars as a British employee of an upscale New York hotel who desperately needs a wife to maintain public appearances.
Diaz’s struggling comic needs health insurance and plots a transactional fake marriage with him.
Even though the pair’s fake marriage begins as a business transaction, it soon turns into an unexpected romance.
The Prime Video romantic comedy kicked off production in New York City last month, and no release date has been announced.
