Several of our favorite celebrities seem to remain ageless over the years. From Jennifer Lopez to Salma Hayek, these faces are fresh and radiant. Luckily, we can get the same results, as several of our favorite celebrities have shared the secrets behind their incredible looks in interviews. From tea tree oil to rose water to good old-fashioned sunscreen, here are 10 anti-aging tips from these celebs.

1. Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez has her own line of skincare, JLo Beauty, which helps her look amazing. She revealed to InStyle that a lot of the products have olive oil.

"My mom and aunts swear by olive oil to deliver a glow," she said. Jennifer noted that JLo Beauty contains olive oil, leaf extract, fermented oil, and squalane. "It gives the skin this weightless, all-day hydration, antioxidant protection, and an ageless radiance. And it doesn't smell like salad dressing."

2. Lily Aldridge

How does Lily Aldridge maintain her supermodel face? Face masks. Lily told InStyle that she turned to these to keep her face healthy when she was pregnant.

"Toward the end of my third trimester with my son, when I was counting the seconds until giving birth, I'd put one sheet mask on my face and another on my bump and watch TV. My daughter thought it was so hilarious!"

3. Salma Hayek

Salma Hayek has been considered one of Hollywood's most beautiful women. Her secret? Consistency. Specifically, Salma told InStyle that she washes her face each night.

"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."

4. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

In 2023, model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley shared some of her skincare secrets with Marie Claire, and they were a bit surprising. She revealed that she doesn't wash her face in the mornings and opts for a different product.

"I use rose water from Santa Maria Novella. I'll take a cotton round, really douse it, and smooth it across my whole face, wake my eyes up, and wake my complexion up."

6. Penelope Cruz

Penelope Cruz got her anti-aging tips from her mother. She told InStyle that her mom encouraged a healthy diet and plenty of sleep.

7. Olivia Palermo

Olivia Palermo's skincare routine includes a very healthy smoothie. She shared the recipe in an interview with Marie Claire.

"I love a smoothie and I have one every day. I do strawberry, raspberry, banana, orange, and a little bit of yogurt or oat milk. Blend it all together and that's it. I get my antioxidants in, it keeps my skin feeling fresh, and it's important to get your berries," she shared.

8. Halle Berry

Halle Berry is approaching 60 but seemingly hasn't aged since her run in the film Monster's Ball two decades ago. Similarly to Rosie, the Academy-Award winner swears by rosewater on her face.

"Before I do my makeup, I spray my face with rosewater and let that sink in," Halle told InStyle. "It keeps my makeup looking very dewy, and I feel like it just makes me look more youthful, alive, and fresh."

9. Christie Brinkley

Legendary model, Christie Brinkley, talked about her skincare secrets with Byrdie.

"I start every day by exfoliating my face," she revealed. "That's something I've done for the past 40 years. I feel like it's really contributed to my skin feeling fresh and smooth. Forty years ago, I read an article that said men always look five years younger than women who are their same age. They contributed that to them shaving every day, and the daily exfoliating with shaving making their skin look younger. I was like, I'm not going to let them get away with that! I use the exfoliator from my skincare line because it's gentle. The whole line was modeled after the skincare ritual I already have."

10. Lea Michele

Lea Michele swears by staying hydrated and getting enough sleep. She talked about this to Byrdie.

"I know it's cliché, but the most I ever see a difference in my skin is when I'm well-rested… That makes the biggest difference in how your skin glows—the texture and coloring of your skin," Lea said.
