17 Celebrity Women Who Are Over 50, But Look 30, Share Their Beauty Tips

The idea of looking youthful is something everyone will eventually care about because I mean, no one wants wrinkles, or frown lines, or crow's feet. Being 18 years old, I have never paid much attention other than to be conscious of wearing moisturizer and sunscreen as much as possible. However, the other day I was scrolling through my Twitter feed and saw this viral video of actress, Angela Bassett, at the Emmy's. I had no idea that she was 60 years old! She looks fantastic for her age, like I really want to know her secrets. Anyways, I began to think about all the women in Hollywood who also look way younger than they are and what their secrets are, so here's a list!

1. Julianne Moore

Julianne is 57 years old and still looks flawless. Her beauty secret is actually to keep her hair long. As women age, they seem to cut their hair shorter (I have no idea why), but she says it makes her look feminine and younger. She also recommends wearing sunscreen every day to avoid spots and wrinkles. Apparently, she has been wearing sunscreen every day since she was 23 years old!

2. Demi Moore

Demi is 55 years old and swears by hydrating her skin! She uses a special night cream before she goes to bed and even makes moisturizing masks every once in a while. She also recommends to always take your makeup off before you go to sleep to allow your skin to breathe. That is something that I swear by, I don't care how tired I am, the makeup ALWAYS comes off.

3. Viola Davis

Viola is 53 years old and her beauty trick is actually kind of weird. Apparently, she rubs Crisco, the solid vegetable shortening, all over her face to get rid of dry skin. I don't know if I would do this tip since I have pretty oily skin, but if you do try this, please let me know the outcome! I mean, Viola looks great so you should too.

4. Jennifer Aniston

Jen is only 49 (shh... she'll be 50 next year, it still counts) and she is very much against the plastic surgery route. However, she does believe in using laser treatment and LED light therapy to tighten her facial muscles. That can be pricey, so she also recommends using high-quality skin products, drinking a lot of water, and getting a good amount of sleep!

5. Jennifer Lopez

Another woman who is also 49 (49 is so close to 50, give me a break), JLo really recommends working out to look younger! She says that working out is a priority and trust me, we can all tell. I mean, have you seen her abs? Also, she recommends using anti-aging creams and taking the makeup off before bed too.

6. Halle Berry

I seriously believe that she is aging backwards, but Halle recommends not to start using anti-aging products so early in life. Rather, she just does a simple skincare routine of just cleansing, toning, and moisturizing. She also recommends doing cardio and using light weights to stay in shape!

7. Sandra Bullock

Sandra looks fantastic every time I see her in the media. Her secret? It's pretty normal actually. She exercises six days out of the week and does something like pilates or kickboxing. Then, she allows herself one cheat day a week. The secret to her skin? Stay out of the sun as much as possible.

8. Salma Hayek

Salma's secret is one we mentioned previously. She told InStyle Magazine, "I've never gone to bed without washing my face. Never in my life. Even if I'm sick, tired—heck, even if I was drunk! I might forget to take off the dress, the shoes, and the jewelry, but not the makeup. It's second nature."

9. Sarah Jessica Parker

The stunning 53 year old swears by washing her face before going to bed! Even if she is super tired, she makes sure to wash her face. Or at least, have her husband remind her. She also is always wearing moisturizer and lip balm.

10. Christie Brinkley

I honestly cannot believe Christie is over 50, but her secret is that every morning she makes her own concoction of juice. She just blends a lot of fruits and veggies together. I mean, it has to work, look at her!

11. Nicole Kidman

The woman swears by sunscreen! After this article, I feel like a lot of people are gonna be purchasing more of it.

12. Julia Roberts

Did you know that Julia was named World's Most Beautiful Woman in 2017? Well, her beauty secret is all about her diet: lean proteins, like salmon, grilled chicken, and eggs; healthy produce, like berries and avocados; and complex carbs, like brown rice. Roberts is also sure to drink at least eight glasses of water each and every day.

13. Mariska Hargitay 

We all love the SVU star but what is her secret? Exercise. I know, how boring. Wrong! Mariska tries to do exercise that does not involve the gym. She does short exercise videos in her dressing room, knee bends on a ballet bar, and even jumps on the trampoline with her son!

14. Andie Macdowell

Andie loves eating fresh fruits and veggies, especially ones from her garden. Some of her favorites are tomatoes, squash, carrots, broccoli, cabbage, strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries.

15. Brooke Shields

Brooke, who looks fabulous, recommends to stop pulling and tugging on your skin when you apply moisturizer and makeup. She said her mom always told her to, "Be gentle with your face."

16. Vanessa Williams

Vanessa does openly mention her use of Botox, however, she is also a big fan of pilates and dance classes to stay in shape!

17. Oprah Winfrey

https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-gospel-according-to-oprah-1517918139?mod=e2twmag&tesla=y

C'mon, we all love Oprah. She says that her hair is something that she believes makes her look youthful. She believes in not using heat more than three days a week. Gotta keep that healthy hair!

These women are absolutely stunning and it amazes me how they look so young for their age. These tips and tricks, some more common, others kind of strange, must be working because, I mean, look at the proof! But if you learned anything, it is: drink water, eat healthy, exercise, wear sunscreen, moisturize, and always go to bed with a clean face!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
