Salma Hayek took to Instagram yesterday (October 19) to share a very natural-looking selfie. Looking stunning as usual, a number of fans drew attention to the fact that she was aging incredibly - like a fine wine, no less.
The gorgeous snap has since garnered 409,000 likes and over 3,000 comments at the time of writing.

Needless to say, fans of the 54-year-old Frida actress could not get over how beautiful she looked - and in very minimal makeup!
One commenter said the Mexican-born actress was "[like a] fine aged wine."

Diehard fan @itslovesalmahayek told the brunette beauty, "You are so perfect, I love it so much that I don't even know to explain."
Back in 2017, Hayek opened up to Net-A-Porter's online publication, The Edit, about how certain things in her life have changed since she turned 50.
"The worst part of the aging process has been my eyes," the actress told the publication. "Not the wrinkles - the eyes themselves. I’m such a visual person and [now] I cannot read without depending on glasses."

"It has been really, really sad. The eyes, for me, that’s worse than the menopause," she added. "I will sometimes say, ‘I am 50 years old! Why do I have to look good? I already got my guy!’" Hayek says. "But then, I don’t want to lose the guy, either."

The film industry has not exactly been known to be welcoming towards women who have reached a certain age, and yet Hayek has a very refreshing approach to aging.
Well, it looks like she might have her mother and grandmother to thank for being so at peace with what is actually just a natural and inevitable process.
"My mother always demonstrated the importance of aging gracefully," Hayek told InStyle in 2019. "I never saw her or my grandmother being afraid of getting old. And so I don’t have that fear."

Earlier this year, the 10-year challenge took social media by storm, with Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram users all sharing a split image of what they looked like in 2009, compared to how they look like now.
Obviously, the greatest results came with the most drastic changes, but if you were to compare a picture of actress Elizabeth Hurley from 10 years ago to now, you probably wouldn't see any differences. In fact, I'd argue that the star hasn't aged a day since playing Vanessa Kensington in the 1997 comedy, Austin Powers.
As well as wowing her following with her timeless looks, Hurley also likes to make them laugh:

And it looks like her 1.4 million Instagram followers agree, as the 54 years old actress (yes, 54) recently left jaws on the floor as she took to the photo-sharing site to promote one of her @elizabethhurleybeach bikinis.

Donning the stripy Marseilles Bikini from her range, it certainly wasn't the 30% off deal that people were talking about in the comments section.
After receiving nearly 75,000 likes (as of this writing), Hurley was inundated with compliments about her ageless appearance, with some followers comparing her to a "fine wine".
One admirer typed: "My God. I think that movie where she was the devil [Bedazzled] is real. Otherwise how is she not aging?"
And another fan commented: "Just like a fine wine ... gets better with age."
Heading her own swimsuit fashion line, Hurley is no stranger to modeling her own products, as you can see from the multiple posts below:

Speaking to Yahoo Lifestyle about her ageless beauty, the actress revealed what her favorite product was to keep herself looking so young (and no, it's not drinking from the Fountain of Youth):
"My most favorite product of all has always been Advanced Night Repair, which is a serum that I was given my first bottle of when I first joined the company in 1995, and I’ve used it religiously twice a day ever since."

Grace Jones has always been able to command attention.
And the former Bond Girl - now 74 years old, if you can believe it - has once again got her fans buzzing after modeling in a brand new campaign for lingerie brand Wolford.
Announcing the partnership on its website, Wolford writes: "Wolford is proud to present a new campaign starring legendary singer and style icon Grace Jones, whose bold sense of confidence and unique performances have inspired women for generations.
"Grace shares our vision of everlasting, powerful style and has made Wolford pieces her own since the 1990s. Discover her interpretations of our most iconic and timeless styles!"
In a recent photoshoot, the View To A Kill star was snapped wearing a number of Wolford's latest designs - with fans initially believing the photos were decades old, due to how young Jones looks in the sensational snaps.
Oozing charisma (when isn't she?), Jones transforms each items she models into a work of art - looking timeless as she does so.
After amassing thousands of 'likes' on the brand's Instagram page, social media users flooded the comments section with praise, with one person pointing out that Jones "hasn't aged in 40 years".
A second stunning Instagram user commented: "Grace Jones is ageless I swear"
"I'm SO thrilled you used Grace Jones as a model," a third wrote. "Class, elegance, talent, and just the right amount of crazy."
And a fourth commented: "Looking OUTSTANDING at 74!!!"
Other Instagram users would go on to describe the 'Slave to the Rhythm' hitmaker as "fierce", an "icon", a "legend" and "timeless".
Speaking about her remarkable figure to the Evening Standard back in 2010, Jones said: "I don't have a regime."
"I do a little exercise, but I don’t do excessive body-building like when I trained twice a day for a year with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Dolph Lundgren."
Jones would also talk about her encompassing - and sometimes intimidating - persona, revealing: "I like sometimes for people to be afraid of me.
"But it's not really anger; it's discipline. My acting coach hypnotized me and found that I was emulating the male authority figures I had growing up. Particularly my step-grandfather, who was 20 years younger than my grandmother. Now you know where I get it from."
At one point during the interview, Jones also mentioned how her vanity had "saved her" and led to her avoiding substance abuse - despite living a "Rock n Roll" lifestyle.
"I like to experiment but not for too long. I'm too vain, one of my biggest sins, but it saved me; I can see what excess does," she said.

There are some people out there who just never really seem to age.
As the rest of us learn to embrace wrinkles and grey hair, others swan around seemingly untouched by Father Time, appearing as youthful as they ever did.
Of course, ageing itself is something to be celebrated, not shunned. We all get older, accruing wisdom and life experience along the way.
Yet it is sometimes hard to understand how certain people have remained looking precisely the same as they did 15 or 20 years earlier.
And one of the most famous examples of the non-ageing phenomenon is actress Salma Hayek.
Here's a clip of Hayek as Santanico Pandemonium in the 1996 movie From Dusk Till Dawn:

Hayek recently took to Instagram to share a bikini picture. She captioned the snap "Un cafecito. A Lior le coffee"
Take a look at the Instagram post right here:

Fans were delighted with the snap, stunned by how youthful-looking Hayek remains.
"Like a fine bottle of wine who just gets better with age!" wrote one enthused commenter, while another added, "Absolutely stunning. My goodness how can one women stay so dang beautiful. Thank you for starting my day off with a bang. Wishing you and your family many continued blessings."
"Wow ageless and still as flawless as ever!! Your an inspiration!! [sic]" another commenter wrote.
"ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN IN THE WORLD!!!" Wrote another enthusiastic commenter.
"ALWAYS AND FOREVER GORGEOUS... LOVE FROM GREECE" wrote another commenter.
Hayek previously discussed getting older in a 2016 interview with Harper's Bazaar. she stated:
"Well I am entering my fifties so your body confidence isn’t that good. I think it depends on the day, for everybody, there’s some days you say, ‘This is it,’ and you love it. Then there are days when you go, ‘This can not be it! Is this really it?’ So I think it’s up and down all the time!"

And the Like A Boss star has also previously revealed some of her best beauty tips in an interview with The New York Times, telling the publication in 2017:
"I never cleanse my skin in the morning. My grandmother taught me that at night your skin replenishes all the things you lost during the day. Also, if I cleanse very well at night, why would it be dirty when I wake up? It’s for companies to have you use more products.
"At night I take off my makeup with coconut oil. Then I use rose water to take off the residuals. You can use a hot towel with the rose water — you put a wet towel in the microwave — to do a little steam. I’ll use the chamomile cleanser from Nuance. Then I splash with cold water."
