Stacey Dash, who was born in 1967, doesn't seem to age. In fact, she looked so good at a 2014 special anniversary screening of Clueless that she had one ELLE reporter comically wondering:
"Whether she is getting regular vampire facials, has the toddler glow, or is just sucking the souls out of young children, I'm desperately trying to crack this case because I'm pretty clueless as to how she's staying just so perfect."

This sultry film actress, who was born in 1966, could easily pass for someone significantly younger. Hayek doesn't place a lot of focus on her looks, however. With regards to aging, Hayek cares more about function over form, noting:
"The worst part of the aging process has been my eyes. 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."

Gabrielle Union, born in 1972, looks so good that she constantly gets asked how and where she found the fountain of youth. The Being Mary Jane actress says looking youthful is as easy as just saying no. "My best anti-aging tip is the ability to say no, no, and hell no," Union says. "We run ourselves ragged saying yes to every freaking thing, whether it's to our family, spouses or careers. I don't let myself stress out. A lot of people call it selfish, but I don't have any wrinkles."

Born in 1957, the former Today Show co-anchor has been on the air for over three decades. When asked about her secret to aging so well, Couric says that she doesn't do anything that is particularly glamorous or shocking. Instead she said:
"I work out at spinning classes, but I don't go every day. I watch what I eat, but a cupcake occasionally slips under the radar. At work, I have a fantastic makeup artist and stage lighting that could safely land a 747 in fog. While I'd like those lights to follow me around outside the office, they don't and when I'm at home in my bathroom, I see in the mirror every line and wrinkle that the television audience doesn't."

Sandra Bullock focuses on self-care to maintain a younger appearance. The Academy Award winning actress, born in 1964, has flawless skin among everything else. Bullock insists that she has never used Botox or had any plastic surgery, however. Instead her secret to aging so gracefully is all about taking care of herself.
“Everyone ages, it's life. I didn't like the idea of going under the knife just to look a little younger,” Sandra said. “It's a dangerous game, once you do one procedure you can easily find yourself back in the operating room... I'd rather use a skin care regimen.”

There have actually been internet rumors that the pop star and actress is aging backwards. Jennifer Lopez, born in 1969, still has one of the most amazing physiques in show business. Lopez credits her looks to getting enough sleep and beginning her day with meditation and affirmation. It takes a lot of work to stay that fit, and because she loves to dance, it hardly even feels like exercise to her. She notes:
"It’s no secret that I love dancing, so it doesn't even feel like exercise to me. I freestyle dance with Tracy Anderson five times a week. We’ll incorporate light weights (3 lbs) for the arms and moves that focus on the butt and thighs and engage the core."

In an industry that often defines actresses by their age, Jennifer Aniston's natural beauty has made her age an irrelevant number. The former Friends star, born in 1969, thinks getting older should be something that is celebrated.
Aniston noted, "I think we have to change our perspective. I don't think life stops after 50. If anything, it gets more and more exciting."
She added, "For some reason, we don't honor or pay respect to aging. It's something that we look at as a negative, and yet every single person on this planet does it."
