She has also made several appearances in similar roles. These include films like “The Island of Dr. Moreau” and “Almost Famous.” Her image hasn’t changed much over the years, and she still looks as stunning as she did in her time on “The Craft.” This is evident with her role in the series “Paradise City.”

Marlo Thomas (84) – That Girl

While it’s not uncommon for an actor or actress to be known for a particular role, in Marlo Thomas’s case, that is a little unfair. While she is best recognized for playing Ann Maie in the series “That Girl,” She is renowned for her versatile award-winning performances in several productions.

Some of her awards include Four Emmy, a Golden Globe, and a Grammy award. for her work on the children’s recording “Marlo Thomas and Friends: Thanks & Giving.” To maintain her youth, she mixes SPF into her moisturizer uses anti-aging cream.

Pamela Sue Martin is an impressive actress who gained fame for her role as Nancy Drew in the popular “The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries” TV series. While she became a teen idol thanks to that role, she grew up and took on a more mature role in the ’80s rendition of the soap opera “Dynasty.”

In the latter show, she played Fallon Carrington Colby and earned a Bambi Award in 1984. Funnily enough, she was renowned for her doe-eyed look, something that she has maintained over the years. This is evident when she returned to “Nancy Drew” in a 2019 pilot for a reboot of the franchise.

Lisa Hartman (65) – Knots Landing

As a singer and actress, Lisa Hartman was the perfect fit to play rock singer Ciji Dunne in the popular show “Knots Landing.” This played into her ambitions of being a singer, which she achieved by recording four solo albums between 1976 and 1987.

During her singing career, she also had contributions on her albums by Bryan Adams and Dobie Gray. She has gone on the back burner both in the acting and music industry but did make an appearance in the show “The Masked Singer” in 2021. She also appeared on the show “GMA3: What You Need to Know” in 2022.

Kathie Lee Gifford (68) – Live! With Regis and Kathie

She loves using Serious Skincare Insta-tox Instant Wrinkle Smoothing Serum, which she claims smooths her wrinkles, perfect for makeup application.

Shannon Tweed (64) – Gene Simmons Family Jewels

Shannon Tweed made her name in the mainstream sensual content industry, notable for appearing in the thrillers of this genre.

She was also an integral part of the reality show “Gene Simmons Family Jewels,” which showcased the family’s life. In 2021 she was featured in an episode of “Entertainment Tonight.”

Mary Elizabeth Mcdonough (60) – The Waltons

Landing her first major role at the age of 11, it’s needless to say that Mary Elizabeth McDonough has been making waves from a young age. This role came in the ’70s sitcom “The Waltons,” and she spent nearly ten years on the show, serving in her role from 1972 to 1981.

But she also had various other roles, including parts in films like “Lovely But Deadly.” She also had episodic roles in shows like “Ally McBeal” and “Hunter” among many others. In 2021 she had a part in a film called “The Contested Plains” and still looks as immaculate as she did in her breakthrough role.

Nia Peeples (60) – Fame

Nia Peeples is either not from this planet or a time traveler because there is no other way she could have been around for six decades. The singer and actress found fame as a singer of various dancefloor hits like “Trouble” before moving into the TV landscape.

She got her first major TV role in the popular ’80s show “Fame.” She moved on to other popular programs like “Pretty Little Liars” and “The Young and the Restless.” All while maintaining an almost alien youthfulness that she says comes from a holistic approach to beauty. In 2020 she appeared in “Pretty Little Wine Moms Re-Watch.”

Angelyne (71) – Earth Girls Are Easy

Angelyn, born Ronia Tamar Goldberg, is a model and singer who took her popularity into her own hands during the ’80s. She shot to popularity after large billboards of her posing suggestively with a Pink Corvette popped up all over New York City in 1984.

This led to her getting several offers for film roles and magazine shoots, ultimately boosting her music aspirations in the process. She released a self-titled album two years prior, in 1982, and released her second album in ’86. She is also noted for small roles in films like “Earth Girls Are Easy” and running for Governor of California. In 2022 she’ll appear in a biography called “Angelyne.”

Patti Smith (75) – Because The Night

Forget Greenday and Blink 182; if you want to see a punk rock icon, look no further than Patti Smith. A rebel, if you ever knew one from a time when they were not exactly in abundance, this ’70s icon is renowned for mixing poetry into her music, similar to Lou Reed, another icon from the era.

One of her best know songs is a hit called “Because the Night,” co-written with “The Boss” Bruce Springsteen. This is her highest-charting song, breaking the top 20 on the Billboard Hot 100. While she has aged physically, she still has a youthful glint in her eye.

Teri Hatcher (57) – Desperate Housewives

Don’t tell us you’ve never heard of Teri Hatcher. She has been starring in some of TV’s most memorable shows since 1993. This was when she started in the Role of Lois Lane in the popular rendition of Superman called “Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman.”

She then landed another leading role in the iconic series “Desperate Housewives.” It’s difficult not to recognize her in either role since she didn’t age a stitch between the start of one and the end of the other. This is thanks to her using sunscreen regularly. In 2021 she starred in a TV film called “A Kiss Before Christmas.”

Priscilla Barnes (67) – Three’s Company

Every sitcom has the sultry beauty that has the guys eating out of her hand at every episode. On iconic sitcom “Three’s Company,” that person was Priscilla Barnes. She played the character Terry Elden from 1981 to 1984, offering that aspect of the character balance in abundance.

Her popularity didn’t end there, and thanks to her work on that show, she also landed some film roles in “Licence to Kill” and “The Devil’s Rejects.” She is still quite youthful despite the lines on her face, and she showed this in a 2022 short film called “Un plan simple.”

Grace Jones (73) – A View To A Kill

Not many people can boast the career Grace Jones has had. She has been a Bond Girl, a model, and a music icon, while also influencing big names in the industry. This includes Lady Gaga, Annie Lennox, and Lorde, among many others. She also more than matched Arnold Schwarzenegger for toughness when they starred together in “Conan The Destroyer.”

Her method for remaining youthful and full of like has nothing to do with putting products on her face. Instead, she focuses on eating healthy and living an active lifestyle. She has also still been quite active and in 2020 appeared in the documentary “Helmut Newton: The Bad and the Beautiful.”

Lisa Bonet (53) – The Cosby Show

One thing that proves how well Lisa Bonet has aged is that her soon-to-be ex-husband Jason Momoa was infatuated with her since he was a child. She is still as gorgeous now as she was when they started dating in 2005, and even during her days on “The Cosby Show” throughout the late ’80s and early ’90s.

Besides her role on that show, she also had another major part in the teen drama “A Different World.” She uses a special face soap to keep her skin looking immaculate while also switching between facial rubs and peels. In 2022 Momoa and Bonet announced their plans to divorce.

Kate Jackson (73) – Charlie’s Angels

Kate Jackson is best known for playing Sabrina Duncan in the classic “Charlie’s Angels” series from 1976 to 1979. But her popular roles didn’t end there. She also had a long-running role in another series called “Scarecrow and Mrs. King,” from 1983 to 1987, and during this time, she also had film roles in “Making Love” and “Loverboy.”

Her talent didn’t go unnoticed, and she was nominated for three Emmy Awards and four Golden Globe Awards. She also had a role in “Satan’s School For Girls” in 2000, but she retired in 2007 to spend more time with her family. This probably preserved her youthful looks.

Connie Stevens (83) –Young And Dangerous

Connie Stevens may have developed a reputation for being an actress who takes breaks from her work, but between the ’50s and ’80s, she was one of the busiest actresses in Hollywood. She was renowned for having multiple jobs in a year on various film projects.

These include films like “Young And Dangerous,” “Eighteen And Anxious,”

“Rock-A-Bye-Baby,” and “The Party Crashers.” It was during the ’90s and ’00s that she started putting space between her acting gigs but still kept busy with a line of cosmetic products and a singing career. In 2019 she starred in “By the Rivers of Babylon,” after three years off-screen.

Catherine O’Hara (67) – Coming Up Rosie

Catherine O’Hara is a comedian who cut her teeth with The Second City’s improvisational comedy troupe. This set her up for an award-winning career with accolades that include a Golden Globe Award, two Primetime Emmy Awards, two Screen Actors Guild Awards, and six Canadian Screen Awards.

She’s had roles in some popular shows, including an early stint on “Coming Up Rosie” alongside Dan Aykroyd and the late John Candy. She also appeared in 1988’s “Beetlejuice” and also had a major part in the hit series “Schitt’s Creek,” which finished up in 2020 and earned her five Canadian Screen Awards. In 2021 she did voice work on a film called “Extinct.”

Linda Kozlowski (64) – Crocodile Dundee

Let’s make one thing clear: Linda Kozlowski didn’t retire because she fell from grace and had to settle for made-for-TV roles. She retired because, while she was putting maximum effort into her performance, those around her were treating the roles like they were below them.

Of course, a part in “Backstreet Justice” is a long way off from her role in the smash hit 1986 film “Crocodile Dundee.” She even married leading man Paul Hogan, although they eventually got divorced after she had her final role in “Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles.” At least her lower workload has left her less stressed and still looking youthful.

Barbi Benton (71) – Hee Haw

Barbi Benton didn’t have a career. It was more of a trail blazed across several industries over 16 years. She appeared in everything from adult magazines to popular TV shows and gained a reputation for appearing in Playboy Magazine during the ’70s, at the behest of the late Hugh Hefner himself.

She even dated him for a while, although that didn’t work out. What did work out was her stint on the popular show “Hee Haw.” She also had a short music career, although she eventually retired from the entertainment industry in 1980 after marrying real estate developer George Gradow in 1979.

Soleil Moon Frye (45) – Punky Brewster

Soleil Moon Frye is a veteran of the acting industry. This despite not even being 50 yet. She has been in the game since the age of two and gained fame as Penelope “Punky” Brewster in the sitcom “Punky Brewster.” The show wasn’t a hit, but Frye played her character so well that she became popular with the young market.

This kept the show alive and eventually earned it cult status. She has a flawless complexion even in her ’40s, and she attributes this to her vegetarian diet and using natural products on her skin. In 2021 she returned to “Punky Brewster” in a reboot of the show.

Samantha Fox (55) – “Touch Me (I Want Your Body)”

Samantha Fox has been in the spotlight since the age of 16, appearing as a page-three girl in newspapers like The Sun among a host of other British Tabloids. She became a pinup girl and one of Britain’s most photographed women. But she wanted to pursue a career in music.

She made her move in 1986 with a single called “Touch Me (I Want Your Body),” a song that eventually peaked at number one in 17 countries. She also participated in the show “Celebrity Wife Swap” and had a role in the film “Sharknado 5: Global Swarming.” In 2021 she appeared in an episode of “Loose Women.”

Jaclyn Smith (76) – Charlie’s Angels

Jaclyn Smith gained fame and notoriety for her role as Kelly Garrett in the “Charlie’s Angels” series of the ’70s. She not only gained worldwide fame along with her co-stars, and they even took over the cover of Time Magazine. All while also earning roles in various other productions.

Some of these include TV film roles in “Rage of Angels” and the 1988 version of “The Bourne Identity.” She also forayed into the business world and started her line of clothing, furniture, and wigs. She even has her skincare line as well, which is probably why she has such an immaculate skin tone.

Vanna White (64) – Wheel Of Fortune

Since 1982 Vanna White has been turning heads and turning letters as the hostess of the long-running game show “Wheel of Fortune.” But over the four decades she has been on the show with main host Pat Sajak, it’s almost certain that she hasn’t aged a day.

She has been on the show so long that she even holds the Guinness record for Most Frequent Clapper. She attributes her youthful looks to a simple routine. She makes sure she is in bed early every night and also eats a healthy diet, and exercises regularly. Thanks to her youthfulness, White was awarded a new contract to host the show in 2021.

Pauley Perrette (52) – NCIS

She may not have played the main character on the show, but Pauley Perrette is arguably the most recognized cast member of “NCIS.” She was probably more recognized than leading man Mark Harmon, and this was in no doubt thanks to the standout punk persona she portrayed through the character.

After 15 seasons, she opted to leave. She tried her hand at another show called “Broke” in 2020, but that was canceled after one season, and she instead opted to retire after that. Despite this, she still looks youthful and ready for another role, and this youth is attributed to her using baby oil after cleansing with regular soap.

Angie Dickinson (90) – Ocean’s Eleven

Angie Dickinson has averaged at least one movie a year since she started her career in 1954. But she gained her first big movie break in 1956, starring in a western called “Gun the Man Down.” She made her name truly known in 1959 when she put in a Golden Globe-winning performance in “Rio Bravo.”

While she has aged physically, she has lost none of the sparkles in her eye that made her the star of films like “Police Woman” and “Dressed To Kill.” These films also won her another Golden Globe and a Saturn Award, respectively. She appeared in a 2021 documentary called “King of Cool.”

Joanne Woodward (91) – Three Faces Of Eve

There is more than one reason Joanne Woodward is a legend of Hollywood. For one, as of 2022, she is the oldest living woman to have won the Best Actress Oscar. But her legend is even bigger than that, and she has also won three Emmy Awards and three Golden Globes.

Of course, you don’t become an award-winning legend without starring in blockbuster films. For Woodward, those blockbusters include “Three Faces Of Eve,” “No Down Payment,” and “A Long Hot Summer.” While she has aged visibly, as expected, she still has a glow about her that stems from her discipline in removing makeup and drinking lots of water.

Loni Anderson (76) – WKRP in Cincinnati

Loni Anderson had to play a patient game before making it. She thought she got her big break when she starred opposite Steve McQueen in “Nevada Smith.” But instead of kicking on, her career was in limbo for a decade until she landed the role of Jennifer Marlowe in the sitcom “WKRP in Cincinnati.”

The show was a hit, and so was she earning two Emmy nominations and three Golden Globe Awards. She had another sustained period on the Sitcom “My Sister Is So Gay” from 2016 to 2020. She also appeared in the 2021 documentary “History of the Sitcom,” still looking as youthful as she did in the ’70s.

Cote De Pablo (42) – NCIS

Chilean-American actress Cote de Pablo gained fame at the age of 15, hosting the Latin-American show called “Control.” But she gained international fame when she started playing the role of Ziva David in the cult classic drama series “NCIS.” This role brought her fame and showcased her everlasting youth to the world.

Her youthfulness knows no bounds, and although she is over 40, she still has a clear complexion. She says that removing her makeup every night and applying a hot towel to her face is key to her youthful flawlessness. De Pablo made her last appearance in “NCIS” in 2020.

Halle Berry (55) – Monsters Ball

For a long time, No one knew exactly how Halle Berry kept her skin so youthful. Then while in lockdown in 2020, she decided to blurt her secrets. She shared a video detailing her four-step plan, and it included cleansing, using a face scrub, and exfoliating. There is also a hydrating masque and a lactic acid hydrating serum.

This explains a lot. Particularly how she has remained the same from “The Flintstones” to “X-Men,” “Monsters Ball,” and even “Swordfish.” She has been busy in 2022 appearing in a documentary called “2nd Unit: Invisible Action Stars” and being honored at the “Critics Choice 4th Annual Celebration of Black Cinema & Television.”

Elle Macpherson (57) – Cover Of Sports Illustrated Swimwear Issue

When a publication as big as Time Magazine nicknames you “The Body,” you know you must be doing something right. That was most definitely the case for Elle Macpherson in the ’80s. She was such a prolific model that she made a record five appearances on the cover of the “Sports Illustrated Swimwear issue.”

She also hogged the covers of other magazines like Elle, Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan, and Glamour. She’s still ready for modeling acting, though, and maintains her youthfulness by using glycolic wash, exfoliating and moisturizing. She is also a sucker for daily sunscreen and uses face and body mist sprays.

Salma Hayek (55) – Desperado

One thing Salma Hayek isn’t doing is complaining about getting old. She is so accepting of the process that in 2019 she took to Instagram to show off her first grey hair to the world. She has, of course, shown no other signs of aging and still has the same striking looks she had in “Desperado.”

Since that role, she has gone on to put in memorable performances in “From Dusk till Dawn,” “Wild Wild West,” and an Oscar-nominated performance in “Frida.” She doesn’t wash her face and instead just moisturizes it, which works for her, and can be seen in the 2021 MCU film titled “Eternals.”

Priscilla Presley (76) – Wedding at Graceland

Priscilla Presley is best known for being married to the king of rock n roll. Part of being married to Elvis was always looking her best, and that is something Priscilla has carried with her throughout her life. She is especially finicky about her skin and goes to great lengths to take care of it.

She invests by getting regular facials to keep her skin tight and poreless. She also lives an active lifestyle and is particularly fond of yoga, and although rumor has she has had cosmetic work done, she still stands by her natural skin health practice. In 2019 she appeared in a documentary titled Wedding at Graceland.

Kelly Lynch (62) – Cocktail

Kelly Lynch made a name for herself in the late ’80s and early ’90s with a spate of roles in popular and cult classics. These include “Cocktail” opposite Tom Cruise, “Roadhouse” with Patrick Swayze, and “Drugstore Cowboy” with Matt Dillon and Heather Graham. She also had a role in the 200’s “Charlie’s Angels.”

Films weren’t the only place she had parts. She also had a role in several TV series, including “The L Word” and “90210,” among others. She had earlier roles in “The Beans of Egypt” and even turned down the lead in “Basic Instinct.” In 2020 she had a role in a film called On The Rocks.

Sandra Bullock (57) – Miss Congeniality

Sandra Bullock is well known as one of Hollywood’s most beautiful personalities. Yet, she has been renowned for pulling off some pretty rough and unattractive roles. These include films like “Miss Congeniality” and its sequel, as well as in 2021’s “The Unforgivable.” Although they are rather rough, she still looks good.

This is likely down to her routing of rubbing fruit on her face every day. She also cleanses and moisturizes, although she’s not too scared to experiment and is always open-minded about leaving room for that. In 2021 she also appeared in a series called “Desus & Mero” and “The Kelly Clarkson Show.”

Jennifer Aniston (52) – Friends

Jennifer Aniston is a pretty special woman. Not only did she captivate the world with her performances as Rachel Green in “Friends.” But she went on to become the most successful cast member of the show when it eventually ended. This is noted with her role in films like “Bruce Almighty,” “Marley & Me,” and “We’re the Millers.”

Renowned for her beauty and for being one of America’s sweethearts, Aniston also has acting in her blood since she is the daughter of “Days of our Lives” legend John Aniston. She also proved that she is still as youthful as ever when she appeared in 2021’s “Friends: The Reunion.”

Sharon Stone (63) – Basic Instinct

Sharon Stone doesn’t need to prove to anyone that she is still a spring chicken. All she has to do is show them that she seamlessly played the same steaming hot character from “Basic Instinct” twice… 14 years apart. That the second film was a bomb takes nothing away from the fact that she was still as youthful as ever.

But that was back in 2006, and even in 2022, she still has her youthful exuberance. This is thanks to her routine of cleansing and applying sunblock before moisturizing. This beauty can be seen in the 2022 second season of “The Flight Attendant” and “Murderville.”

Famke Janssen (58) – X-Men

Famke Janssen can claim many reasons for her fame. One of those is playing Jean Grey in the first three “X-Men” films; another is for playing the femme fatale and bond girl Xenia Onatopp in the James Bond film GoldenEye. The second character was renowned for crushing her victims with her thighs.

The first one made her a more recognizable star than Wolverine actor Hugh Jackman. In the late 2010’s she rose to prominence again with a small role in the series “The Blacklist,” which led to the main role in the spinoff show “The Blacklist: Redemption.” In 2022 she had a role in the film “Redeeming Love.”
