How to Stay Beautiful At Any Age


Christie Brinkley is still stunning, and Teri Hatcher makes 42 look like 30!

Only “Extra” knows how Hollywood’s hottest stars shine well into their 40s and 50s, as they reveal their tricks in “The Black Book of Hollywood Secrets.”

Beautiful “Housewife” Teri Hatcher’s secret? She pours a cup of red wine into her bath to help soften her skin. To wipe wrinkles away, Teri told us, “I use Hydroderm, a collagen kind of thing.”

For 40-year-old supermodel mom Cindy Crawford, a mix of milk and water misted on the face eschews a dewy fresh look, while Kim Basinger, 53, uses a petroleum-based scuba diving sunscreen to keep her skin soft.

If you want to look 10 pounds thinner instantly, rub cellulite cream into your jaw line, which will suck the water weight right away.

Christie Brinkley credits her timeless beauty to plenty of sunblock and a healthy diet.

“I’ve been a vegetarian almost my entire life,” she told us.

At 59 years of age, Cheryl Tiegs stays slim thanks to a daily weigh in.

“If I'm one pound or two pounds overweight, I put on the tightest pair of pants that I have; it reminds you to loose weight before it gets out of control,” Tiegs confessed.

Angela Basset, who is still sizzling at 48, also shared her beauty secret.

“A sincere smile from a pure heart is the sexiest thing a woman can have,” she admitted. “In European countries they've had an appreciation for the confidence and the allure of a more mature woman, and we are finally coming around to that.”

Yes, genetics play a vital part in the aging process. Lets get real here. I am sure most of these women have had cosmetic work done… fess up. I know from behind the scenes here that some have. What’s the big deal anyway? I am 47, and I have had work done. Today it’s like going to the hair stylist.

Amazing! How superficial so many people are. Kristy, with just a bit of the right paint on her face would pass for the Jokers wife. LOL LOL LOL And she hasn’t married him yet. What an idea! Maybe she’ll see this and jump right on it…..

But then I don’t typically look around for idiots that mutilate their bodies so they can feel like they are defeating life. Not who I care to idolize. Hero’s they are called! LOL LOL

Pat, why don’t you try a search for her birth date. LOL

Hope nothing here is missspelled. LOL

Brinkly looks her age… especially when you have to consider the plastic surgery… She is an attractive 53 year old woman, with LOTS of money to keep herself that way!
She and Katie Couric obviously share the same plastic surgeon…
the eye area tells it all…
When Couric started her new News show…my husand looked at me and asked me if she was all of a suden related to Brinkly… they both had the “cat look” about the eye area, and it was eerie to see it… they looked like sisters, all of a sudden.

If I had their $ I too would go for it!

Some actresses may be telling the truth about genuinely looking young for their ages. I am 57 and look twenty or more years younger. No face-lifts, or implants, and gravity does not affect someone who has regularly for years, worked out with weights. And, I am lucky to have my mother’s great genes. But, my fifty year old husband, is also young looking and very muscular. (He does regular weight training too, much more than I do.)

I feel bad for the young women who are putting all kind of stuff on their faces, and even having cosmetic surgery so young. As they age, they will need to keep up the maintenance, and will surely look older than their real age by mid thirties. I still do not put much more than moisturiser on my face and skin. But, I take vitimins, minerals and like Q10, which is a great anti-oxidant.

I welcome any of you to come visit my website, just click on my name, and see that it is possible to look much younger than you are, without the surgery. I think it has something to do with keeping a long hairstyle and not wearing frumpy looking clothes.

Christie Brinkley, Model

* Born: 2 February 1954
* Birthplace: Detroit, Michigan
* Best Known As: Sports Illustrated cover girl and former wife of Billy Joel

Name at birth: Christie Lee Hudson

Robust and athletic with a California-girl smile, Christie Brinkley was the first woman to appear on the cover of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition for three consecutive years (1979-81). Brinkley was studying art in Paris when she was discovered by a fashion photographer early in the 1970s, and she soon joined the Ford modeling agency. Her career really took off with her first Sports Illustrated cover in 1979. She had a cameo role in National Lampoon’s Vacation (1983) and married superstar singer Billy Joel in 1985. (She appeared in Joel’s videos for “Uptown Girl” and “Keeping the Faith” and created the cover art for his 1988 album River of Dreams. Brinkley and Joel divorced in 1994.) Like Cheryl Tiegs, Brinkley was a longtime spokesmodel for Cover Girl cosmetics.

Brinkley was raised in Malibu, California, and some sources say she was born there as well… Brinkley’s husbands: Jean Francois Allaux (1973-81); singer Billy Joel (1985-94); real-estate magnate Richard Taubman (1994-95); architect Peter Cook (1996- ). She filed for divorce from Cook in September of 2006… Her children: Alexa Ray (with Joel, b. 1985); Jack Paris (with Taubman, b. 1995); Sailor Lee (with Cook, b. 1998)

Here’s the scooped on Christie Brinkley’s face…it’s called a mid-face facelift! Takes care of the saggy check area & the saggy jowl area without that “tight pull” look one may get with a full-face lift.

On the other hand, Christie Brinkley and Cindy Crawford are amazingly beautiful.

Well, I agree that plastic surgery, botox, special treatments are part of the “stars” beauty secret. I also think that genetics is a factor. Also, women of color age differently. Perhaps they do not wrinkle as fast. I have seen black and native american women with little or know wrinkles in their 70’s. I also believe that drinking lots of water is a plus to good skin care.

I agree that Christie Brinkly is indeed a beautiful woman at 52 it is even more impressive. I went to her official website and the biography said she is 52. They should know.

To Pat - If you read the article carefully, it doesn’t actually say how old Christie Brinkley is. It does say that Cindy Crawford is 40. I do believe Vicki is correct. Not too long ago I either read or saw on TV that Christie is over 50. No matter - she still looks fabulous whether she’s 40 or 50!!

Well, I’m almost 50, and I’m dating men HALF my age, because I still look 30. I’m no supermodel or movie star, either. I’m just active, and have a good attitude. I skate with the players of a pro hockey team. I tap dance, I do martial arts, I ride horses, it’s all about staying active. I’ve never had plastic surgery of any kind. I have seen Teri Hatcher up close and in person, and I’d say she looks like she’s in her 40’s.

Actually, Christy Brinkley isn’t 40, she’s 51 or 52. I’m 50 and she’s about 1.5 years older. She’s gorgeous.
