Stars That Have Aged Flawlessly, Proving Beauty Is Timeless
Nancy McKeon – Age 54
The Facts of Life star Nancy McKeon quickly rose to become one of the hottest ’80s stars. From the moment we first saw her playing Jo Polniaczek, Nancy remained with us through a string of popular TV movies. She’s also always held a special place in films to fans, starring in movies like The Hitchhiker and Love Begins.
From 2011 onward, Nancy took a break from the industry. In 2018, she returned as part of Dancing with the Stars, where she was the first celebrity featured for the season. Unfortunately, the actress who once dated Michael J. Fox got eliminated third in the competition.
Catherine Bell – Age 51
Every girl dreams of aging as well as Catherine Bell. Already having approached 51 years of age, the Army Wives star could effortlessly pass for someone in their twenties. Bell’s career started with Sugar and Spice in 1990, but only elevated to stardom in the late ’90s with her role in JAG.
Today, with decades worth film and television credits under her belt, Bell spends her spare time with activities like skiing, kickboxing, and cross-stitching. In 2019 and 2020, she reprised her role as Sarah MacKenzie on NCIS: Los Angeles. If you’d like to learn about her skincare regimen, you can visit www.catherinebell.com.
Erika Eleniak – Age 50
Not everyone can rock a perfectly imperfect, thick pair of brows. Since Erika Eleniak is not “everyone,” she can. The year 1989 was Eleniak’s lucky year because, at only 20 years of age, Eleniak shot to fame by appearing on the well-known men’s magazine, and also debuted in Baywatch.
Her career included starring roles in productions such as The Beverly Hillbillies, The Opponent, and Second to Die. When we take a look back at her younger years, not much has changed (appearance-wise). She is still a beauty queen at 50 years who has a teenager calling her mom. We can soon hope to see her on Baywatch: The Documentary.
Bo Derek – Age 63
Bo Derek was a feminine symbol back in the day—a status established with her portrayal of Jenny Hanley on 10. It’s been over 40 years since then, and Derek has appeared in a bunch of other movies and television series over the years. Let’s all longingly await her next appearance.
At the age of 63, Bo Derek is still a sight for sore eyes. A few years ago, she sat down with Megyn Kelly on Megyn Kelly Today and revealed to the world that going under the knife was not her thing. Derek continued to recommend some of her favorite products from La Roche Posay, Biotherm, and Shu Uemura.
Brooke Shields – Age 54
Brooke Shields’s thick eyebrows are perhaps her most iconic feature. Well, drinking water, getting sufficient sleep, and eating greens are her beauty secrets, according to W Magazine. She was someone who took education very seriously, hence why she paused her modeling career to acquire a degree from Princeton University. All in all, everything has been a success so far.
Today, at 54 years of age, Shields has a career that is as long as her whole life, two children, and a husband of 19 years. To simply put it, Shields’s life is perfect to the eyes of her beholders. She currently has an ongoing voice role on Mr. Pickles.
Victoria Principal – Age 70
If we had to rate her, Victoria Principal would get a 10/10 in the blink of an eye. Born in Japan in 1950, Principal grew up to become an actress in America—a perfect one for that matter. The beginning of her acting career goes back to the early ’70s.
Fifteen years into show business and Principal became a producer with the start of Victoria Principal Productions. She probably preferred filmmaking, which is why she retired from acting in 2001. Today, she runs her own beauty company named Principal Secret—a line that specializes in anti-aging. We have a feeling the products are effective because look at her at age 70!
Goldie Hawn – 74
We are tempted to say that Goldie Hawn is perhaps even better looking at 74 years than she was in her youth. The Oscar-winning actress first gained attention on NBC‘s Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In. Flaunting her all-natural blonde locks, Hawn still comes on the screens frequently.
She last appeared as Mrs. Claus on The Christmas Chronicles in 2018 and will return for its sequel in 2020. Moreover, Hawn is said to appear in a new production called Family Jewels in the upcoming years. According to Lumity, Hawn’s ageless beauty hacks lie on exercise, green juice, dancing, eating with limits, practicing meditation and mindfulness, and simply doing everything in moderation.
Nancy Allen – Age 69
Nancy Allen is older in age, wiser in mind, but what she’s not is wrinkly on the face. Born and raised in the Bronx, Allen began her career as an actress in the ’70s but didn’t gain celebrity status until RoboCop in 1987.
Allen kept her career up and running (even while going through three divorces) until her retirement in 2008. Her guest appearance on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit in 2003 is the last gig on record. As she is now on the brink of turning 70, Allen dedicates her time to worthier causes as she serves as the executive director of the weSPARK Cancer Support Center.
Samantha Fox – Age 54
The former The Sun Page 3 model, Samantha Fox, built a more substantial reputation in the music industry. Nevertheless, the glamour and style from her modeling days never really went away. Now aged 54, the English songstress barely shows any signs of aging, and we wish she’d share her secrets.
After Fox’s debut single, Touch Me (I Want Your Body) hit charts around the world in 1986, she has released six studio albums and 36 singles. Since Hot Boy came out in 2018, Fox has been pretty quiet (although active on Twitter). We like to think that she’s enjoying her life with her newfound love, Linda Olsen.
Lucy Lawless – Age 52
When she landed the protagonist role in Xena: Warrior Princess, even she could not believe the success that the series would have. Lucy Lawless stopped portraying Xena back in 2001, but her character has never been forgotten. Though many years have passed, Lucy still preserves the same beauty and physique she did back then.
She’s even had three children, but that doesn’t seem to have affected her in any way! The last time Lucy acted in front of a camera was in 2019 with My Life Is Murder. In 2020 she voiced a character for the Star Wars Resistance series.
Claudia Schiffer – Age 49
A couple of decades, three children, and a successful career later, Claudia Schiffer’s appearances are still making everyone drool. The German supermodel and actress, who is only a few months away from turning 50, once told Harper’s Bazaar that a well-balanced diet and regular exercise are the [not so] secrets behind her beauty.
Having modeled for brands like Versace, Christian Dior, and Chanel, and posed for magazines like People, Elle, and Cosmopolitan, Schiffer holds the Guinness Record for the model with the highest magazine cover appearances. Today, Schiffer runs her own cosmetics line named Claudia Schiffer Make-Up.
Demi Moore – Age 57
If you know Demi Moore at all, then you’d also know that her glory days were in the ’80s—when she was part of the “Brat Pack.” However, the 57-year-old is still in business. A brand new series starring Moore, Brave New World, is set to release soon.
Moving on to her looks, have you seen her recently? A glance at her, and you know she’s all you want to be, considering her age. According to Women’s Health, Moore thinks her 7+ years of sobriety has to do with youthful appearances, and she also pays her facialist pretty well, which, as you see above, is well worth the money.
Nicole Kidman – Age 52
Skincare experts and beauty gurus these days don’t recommend the use of cleansing wipes. Yet, when you are an award-winning actress like Nicole Kidman, life becomes so hectic that you may just choose convenience over better judgment, or so she told Harper’s Bazaar.
Maybe it’s not ideal, but look at Kidman at 52! She is flawless. The Australian-born actress took everyone by surprise with her acting skills on Dead Calm in 1989. Since then, her work has not disappointed, and her fan base has only grown. More recently, Kidman had lead roles in Aquaman and Bombshell, and she is currently busy filming The Prom, The Northman, and The Undoing.
Lisa Bonet – Age 52
If there is anybody out there who doesn’t think Lisa Bonet is gorgeous, let us see you scoring a man like Jason Momoa. Not only is she pretty on the outside, but the 52-year-old mother of three is equally beautiful on the inside. We say so because of her undying love to protect Mother Earth—a passion she’s passed on well to her kids.
In recent years, we may not have seen Bonet on screens as much as we’d want to. Nevertheless, the power couple never fails to turn heads at the events like the 2019 Oscars, 2020 Golden Globe Awards, and the recent cameo appearance on the Super Bowl advertisement.
Linda Lusardi – Age 61
Although Linda Lusardi’s career’s activeness is something of the past, her looks are keeping up with current trends. The once prominent British actress occupied the screens and won the hearts of many after entering showbiz as a model when she was 18.
Between the years 1976 and 1988, Lusardi was a Page 3 girl on The Sun, and a survey in 2005 concluded that she was the best Page 3 girl in history. The 61-year-old’s name came up recently after she too, like millions of others, became prey to the coronavirus pandemic. Luckily, she defeated the deadly virus and is back to being her lovely self again.
Bridget Fonda – Age 56
Bridget Fonda’s family tree consisted of generations of relatives who have been in show business. Therefore, Fonda approaching a career in acting was—as some would say—inevitable. Although she had an uncredited film role as a child, Fonda’s career only took off in the late ’80s.
Since earning widespread fame from The Godfather Part III, Fonda had a full schedule until her retirement in 2002. It has been 18 years, but looking at her photos, you’ll never be able to tell as she looks almost exactly alike. We’re going to go out on a limb here and credit the family’s genetics, because, have you seen her 82-year-old aunt Jane Fonda?
Cheryl Ladd – Age 68
For someone who has been in show business since 1970, Cheryl Ladd looks young. Even though she is now mature in age, the Charlie’s Angel star was every man’s dream girl back in the day. Ladd’s talents are not limited to acting. She is also a singer with five studio albums and many singles out there.
Over the years, Ladd has had a pretty stable career. Very recently, during Christmas 2019, her most up-to-date movie, Grounded For Christmas, came out. As per Better Nutrition‘s news, Ladd has her supplement intake, balanced diet, swimming, and Zumba to thank for her youthful glow even as a grandma.
Stockard Channing – Age 76
Stockard Channing, a unique name that has a pretty face paired to it, belongs to a very talented Hollywood actress. Ever since she shot to fame with the portrayal of Betty Rizzo on Grease, both her fanbase and movie/TV show lists have only been growing.
Channing, now aged 76, baffled her fans back in 2017 when she appeared on Lorraine looking quite strange (appearance-wise) from her usual self. Whether the Smoke star went under the knife is still in speculation, but even if she did, it was her choice, and she still looks great.
Faith Hill – Age 52
Faith Hill is one of the most iconic and successful country musicians in the world. Having sold 40 million albums around the world and with hits like This Kiss, Breath, and The Way You Love Me, she has created some of country music’s most iconic songs.
Besides her music that is always fresh and exciting, another factor in her longevity is her enduring beauty. One of her secrets is moisturizing and not overdoing it with too many products. But the most important secret Faith has is just being confident in her age and herself.
Hillary Wolf – Age 43
By the time Hillary Wolf retired from the acting industry in 2000, she was not just a star in movies but was also a Junior Judo Champion in 1994. Wolf would even go on to represent the USA at the 1996 and 2000 Olympic Games.
Her film credit includes the comedy Big Girls Don’t Cry… They Get Even and the first two films in the Home Alone franchise. After starring in Home Alone 2 she committed herself fully to her Judo and became one of the country’s most high profile competitors in the sport.
Rick Springfield – Age 71
Not much has changed about Rick Springfield since his early days in the Australian pop-rock band Zoot. His hair has changed, but in terms of his face, everything is as it was in 1969. This has not just helped him maintain his rock star status, but also helped him land some decent film roles.
Some of these roles include General Hospital, True Detective, Californication, and Supernatural. Springfield has also written a memoir called Late, Late at Night: A Memoir. The book was listed at number 23 in Rolling Stone’s 25 Great Rock Memoirs Of All Time.
Catherine Bach – Age 66
The sole fact that Catherine Bach is still persevering after her husband committed suicide in 2010 is adequate to realize her inner strength and willpower. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, Bach has now been an actress for over 45 years, which makes you wonder her age.
Back, who played Daisy Duke on The Dukes of Hazzard, is now 66 years old. With a stunning physique and equally perfect skin, the actress still keeps herself busy. In the present, the mother of two portrays Anita Lawson on The Young and the Restless—a role that she has had since 2012.
Danica Patrick – Age 38
To say that Danica Patrick is one of the best female race car drivers of the world would be an understatement. During her professional career (that ended in 2018), the 38-year-old was the first female to secure many titles, including IndyCar Series and NASCAR Cup Series.
Patrick currently resides in Malibu with her boyfriend, Green Bay Packers quarterback, Aaron Rodgers. With her good looks and influential status, Patrick had the opportunity to serve as a host on Spike TV, post-retirement, while also focusing on her wine-producing business. In a 2019 interview with People Magazine, Patrick mentioned her love for yoga, weightlifting, and exercise overall to keep fit and remain stunning.
Elin Nordegren – Age 40
The former Swedish model Elin Nordegren was only an adolescent girl when she moved to the US with a job as a nanny. However, her life got a hundred times better when she married Tiger Woods (or so she thought). In summary, the couple divorced, leaving Nordegren with two children and $100 million in the settlement.
The now 40-year-old hasn’t been up to much since then, except she graduated college with a 3.96 GPA and had her third child with current boyfriend, Jordan Cameron. Around two decades after relocating, Nordegren still looks so young—so much so that if she went to a club, she’d be asked for her ID.
Christina Applegate – Age 48
Christina Applegate was more than just a pretty face in the ’80s. She was also the mean blonde, Kelly Bundy, who we saw on television for a decade between 1987 and 1997 on Married… with Children. Even though many years have passed since then, Applegate’s pretty face is still perfectly intact.
It is safe to say that the 48-year-old’s professional activity has not even begun to fade as she currently stars in Dead to Me. Applegate once told InStyle that she likes to keep her beauty all-natural looking considering her age. We guess it may also have something to do with her newfound appreciation for life being a cancer survivor.
Nia Peeples – Age 58
Nia Peeples may not be keeping up with all the fashion trends, but boy does she look charming for a woman of 48 years. When we take a look back at her career, the roles she may be remembered for are very different. For instance, today’s younger generation will know her for playing Pam Fields on Pretty Little Liars, while the others might recall her from Fame.
Regardless, it looks like Peeples will mark her face in the future too because she has two new movies (Ulysses Coyote and Miracle Underground) coming up in 2020. On another note, in case you’re wondering, her biggest beauty secret is—loving herself.
