The 68-year-old actress played Samantha Jones on the hit HBO series and in the season five episode 'Plus One Is The Loneliest Number', her alter-ego tries an anti-ageing chemical peel that goes awry but Kim revealed that the whole thing was inspired by an overly-ambitious tanned look she had tried for an awards show.
