We can all poke loving fun at our queen Gwyneth Paltrow for her over-the-top recommendations (Turkish baths and $90 white t-shirts much?), but you cannot deny that whatever she's doing is working. The mother of two was spotted leaving a Brentwood, California restaurant yesterday without makeup, and holy skincare regimen, she doesn't look a day over 30. Gwyneth, by the way, turns 40 next month.
Gwyn hasn't been shy about letting us in on her secrets, so let's take a look at some of the advice she's dolled out over the years about skincare, beauty, and staying young. Maybe if we start now, we'll look half as good as she does at 39.
Before heading to the Emmys, Gwyn prepped her skin with an Apple Stem Cell facial from Sonya Dakar. Doesn't it sound like she had some of daughter Apple's skin sewn into her face, or something? Alas, I think they mean apple the fruit. Whatever it is, it looks like it's worked wonders for Gwyn. And there's good news -- Sonya's line of skincare doesn't look like it'd totally break the bank.
When she's not applying fruit to her face, she's drinking it by the pint. Gwyneth's known for her strict diet and exercise program, which includes working out more than two hours a day and periodical seven-day juice cleanses. Seven. Days. All that healthiness certainly makes her shine from the inside out, but I don't know. I'm kind of a fan of chewing.
And when Gwyneth imbibes too much, she has just the thing to release all those toxins, something I'm sure does wonders for her complexion. She recommends Hydrotherapy in an icy then hot shower, a steam or two, and lots of walking around in this huge Turkish bath that you don't have in your house. I'm sure she emerges fresh-faced ... and a little dizzy.
So there we have it -- use Sonya Dakar products, drink juice, exercise, and detox after drinking. It's good enough for Gwyn so it's good enough for us. And the proof that it works is in her face -- the woman looks magnificent. Or as I'm sure Gwyn would say, magnifique.
What's your anti-aging regimen like?

I think she looks very plain and definitely looks her age.
Not break the bank, yeah right, Cleanser was over $50 and moisturizer was over $90. lol I only bring in a little over $200 week. lol. I'll stick to my cheap shit. I'm 29 and most people think I'm in my early twenties. So I guess cheap works for me. lol.
Are we looking at the same pic? Looks kinda plain and ragged... And she does look 40.
Btw, I smoke, I drink on occasion, I eat junk food, and go outside with no sunscreen.
Why is my skin damn near perfect? Must be genetics. Or the fact that I live by "everything in moderation" and only do the bad things on random weekends. Except sunscreen, I NEVER wear it.
Idk, maybe I'm just lucky.
define plain ?
If by plain you mean she does not look like a hollywood actress .. Duuuhhh
I bet YOU would look like a hollywood actress too with all that make up on.
I personally think people waist time and money on trying to look younger ..
You cant stop the natural course of things unless you die before you get to look old
Huh? My mom looks better than that, and she's 66- more vibrant, skin more dewy and glowing, doesn't have those worry lines in her forehead or those super thin lips. And my mom looks that great without make up. And she never wears foundation. Gwyneth looks every bit of 40- well, a 40 year old white woman.
