She was once famous for her flawless skin and stunning looks.
But Faye Dunaway clearly had something to hide as she arrived at Los Angeles LAX Airport yesterday wearing a surgical face mask and sunglasses.

Dunaway, who shot to fame when she starred alongside Warren Beatty in 1967 film Bonnie and Clyde, also hid her figure under an unflattering tracksuit top, a black top and trousers and white trainers.
With untamed brown hair and little makeup, Dunaway looked a far cry from the sexy young woman who made her name as one of the top actresses of her time in the 70s.

While it was unclear why Dunaway was wearing the mask, usually used to prevent the spreading of airborne infections, it may have been her unique way of paying tribute to her former drama coach Andreas Voutsinas, who died on Tuesday.
Voutsinas also coached Warren Beatty and Ann Bancroft.
