Nicole Kidman has vowed never to use Botox again.

The actress, 42, who is married to fellow Australian Keith Urban, has tried the wrinkle-smoothing injections in the past but she now plans to avoid them in the future as she likes having control over her facial expressions.

"No surgery for me. I did try Botox, unfortunately, but I got out of it and now I can finally move my face again," she told Italian newspaper La Repubblica.

Nicole will soon be hitting our cinema screens in Park Chan-wook's psychological horror film Stoker in which she portrays Evelyn Stoker, a mother who is jealous of her daughter India Stoker (Mia Wasikowska).

The Hollywood star - who also has two children Isabella, 20, and 17-year-old Connor, with her ex-husband Tom Cruise - admits it was tough to play the character because her love for her kids is so strong.

"I was a huge fan of Park Chan-wook, I wanted to work with him and with Mia, who's Australian like me," she said.

"It was an incredible experience. I play the part of a mother who hates her daughter. It couldn't be further from how I am - nothing matters to me more than my children."

Although she experimented with Botox, Nicole sticks to a healthy eating plan and rigorous exercise regime to stay looking good.

"I am completely natural. I wear sunscreen, I don't smoke and I take care of myself, and I am proud to say that," she said.

"Anybody can do anything to themselves - I don't judge - but personally I believe in being physically fit. That's how I was raised.

"I can't go in the sun because I'm fair-skinned. It was a nightmare when I was younger but it has its benefits now."
