And with temperatures heating up and summer right around the corner, if you want to get your legs ready for warm days, then you've come to the right place and will need to listen up.
So if you're desperate for beautiful legs 'at any age', it's time to take notes.
Posting on social media, the content creator, who has 16,000 followers on TikTok, revealed the simple secrets behind her 'tight' pins.
Whilst on holiday, the glamorous woman who is eager to 'age gracefully', shared her top anti-ageing hacks, leaving many totally stunned.
The 'confident and happy' mother strutted along in a white mini dress and a pair of wedge heels, as she wrote: 'How I stopped my legs from ageing."
Following this, the 59-year-old, who is from Germany and hasn't had any plastic surgery or filler, explained the two daily habits she can't recommend enough - dry brushing and cold showers.
Dry brushing is a skincare technique that involves using a brush with stiff bristles to exfoliate dry skin, typically before showering or bathing.
It is often seen as a way to stimulate circulation, promote lymphatic drainage, and improve overall skin health and texture.
Meanwhile, cold showers are said to potentially contribute to a more youthful appearance by tightening pores and reducing puffiness.
Not only this, but turning the heat down on your daily wash can also stimulate collagen production, which can help improve skin elasticity and reduce wrinkles.
The fashion and body positive influencer claimed that these habits will ensure you have 'smooth, tight, glowing legs'.
The influencer, who loves posing in swimwear online, advised users to 'thank me later' as she proudly showed off her eye-popping pins and stressed: 'Don't skip your legs in your routine.'
You win the legs award!!

Gina, who won't let age hold her back, then claimed: 'They show age too.'
As a result, she advised: 'Save this and try it for two weeks – game changer!'
Social media users react
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ ginadrewalowski, has clearly impressed many, as in just five days it has quickly racked up 145,900 views.
It's also amassed 3,006 likes, 27 comments and 329 saves.
LONDON -based Gabriela Peacock, who has helped the likes of Prince Harry and Princess Eugenie prepare for their weddings.
She told Fabulous: 'The science is evident that we all have the power to make simple life changing alterations to better our future selves - no matter what genetic hand we might have been dealt with.
'The reality is, we all sometimes indulge in unhealthy eating habits like processed foods, smoking cigarettes, drinking too much alcohol, inhaling city pollutants, and even drinking water from plastic bottles – none of this is good for us.
'All this does is promote the ageing process, but we all have the potential to change this.'
It may be hard, but try to keep away from sugary carbohydrates, because they feed chronic inflammation, which is one of the worst enemies of reversing ageing.
Now only will you end up putting on weight if you consume them regularly, but your energy and hormonal levels will be affected and this will influence how you look and feel.
Whatever your age or state of health, it's never too late to reverse how quickly you are ageing and embrace the energy and vigour of a younger you.
Antioxidants, such as vitamins A, C, and E, are essential in neutralising free radicals—the culprits behind premature ageing.
Integrating a spectrum of colourful fruits and vegetables into your diet provides a potent source of antioxidants.
Omega-3 fatty acids, abundant in fatty fish like salmon and flaxseeds, are vital for maintaining skin elasticity and hydration.
Omega-3s act as nourishment for your skin, locking in moisture and diminishing fine lines and wrinkles.
Collagen, a structural protein dwindling with age, can be replenished through collagen-rich foods like bone broth and lean protein sources.
Social media users were left gobsmacked by Gina's luscious legs and many raced to the comments to express this.
One person said: 'You win the legs award!!'
Another added: 'You look amazing, well done.'

I tested French whites costing less than £8… crisp, smokey winner is great wine that makes you think you're on holiday
WHEN it comes to sunshine sipping, a chilled glass of rosé is often a refreshing winner. But some French wine buffs reckon it has peaked – and are stepping away from the pink stuff. 10 Instead, vineyards are focusing on producing more affordable whites, as their popularity is on the up. But which is best? Drinks expert Helena Nicklin suggests some tres bon vins blancs, all for less than £8 a bottle. Montpierre Chardonnay White 12% ABV, £4.50, Sainsbury's SOUTHERN France can churn out some cheap-as-you-like Chardonnay. But unfortunately, some are awful – proving not all wines from the continent are top class. This little bargain buy, however, is surprisingly good and great value at less than a fiver. It's got flavour and tastes of the grape. There's a bit of vanilla in true Chardonnay style. A good cooking wine that will be great slugged into sauces and over chicken. When chilled, it's not a bad cheeky glass on the side. That said, not as fresh as a more expensive wine, so one for when you need to keep the price in mind. RATING: 2/5 Pierre Jaurant Chardonnay 12% ABV, £4.85, (£5.85 in Scotland), Aldi in store THIS bottle offers a step up in the French Chardonnay department, but impressively not too much of a hike in price. A golden, peachy little number with a name on the label that couldn't sound more French. It is round and fruity, with a smidgen of sweet spice from some oak staves – but crucially, not in a sickly way. There's a touch of subtle rubber about it, but also a lot of flavour thanks to the fact it's a blend of several vintages. A great glugger for less than a fiver that's very food-friendly, too. You could sip this with all sorts – from a French baguette to a British bag of crisps. Just make sure it's cold. Le Manoir du Baron Viognier 12.5% ABV, £5.14, Asda FOR the very low price, I will be the first to admit I was expecting to sip an unfresh, synthetic-tasting white that tastes of hangover. After all, we've all been there. But proving that lower-priced plonk really can hit the spot as much as a spendy bottle, when I sipped it I was pleasantly surprised. Fans of the classic white style Viognier, from the Rhone Valley, will love the peach and apricot flavours, and the pretty floral note the grape is famous for. It's round and a bit creamy, just as Viognier should be. Perfect alone or paired with roast chicken, it's the ultimate crowd pleaser and a super saver. Ooh la la! RATING: 5/5 Pierre Jaurant French Cotes de Gascogne 12% ABV, £5.29, Aldi THE Cotes de Gascogne in southwestern France is a hub for some brilliant white wine bargains like this. But they are often made with grapes you may not know, such as this Gros Manseng. They're worth seeking out as they offer a lovely fleshy fruitiness that is a bit tropical, but not too sweet. Importantly, they are very good value. This style is often in your glass as the 'good' house white in pubs. Aldi's is a super price, even if it could have a bit more oomph on drinking. But this is such good value that it's worth filling up your trolley and giving it a try. Le Froglet Sauvignon Blanc 11.5% ABV, £6.50, M&S PICNIC or train vino drinkers may recognise the Froglet name from when M&S sold it in single-serve plastic wine glasses. But it looks really cute in this whole bottle form, too. There aren't many wines under £7 in M&S, but this French sip has become one of its more affordable, signature tipples. And on top of being one of the lowest prices you can pay from the store for full-sized wines, it's also not bad drinking. Think very simple and very light Sauvignon Blanc with a subtle leafiness and squeeze of lemon. There's not loads going on, but it's still crisp and clean and certainly French – perfect at the price. Extra Special Cotes de Gascogne 11.5% ABV, £6.57, Asda ASDA'S Extra Special wine range is going great guns at the moment, and this Gascony blend of Colombard, Sauvignon Blanc and Gros Manseng grapes is gorgeous. With its ripe greengage and yellow plum notes, coupled with a crisp acidity and subtle smokiness, this vino showcases exactly what this region can do for not a lot of cash. There's tons of flavour, but it's not overpowering at all and has a thirst-slaking slick of saline. A fantastic wine that's excellent value. The stylish bottle looks far pricier. Drink it with French nibbles and pretend you are on holiday, or impress guests with your French wine find. RATING: 5/5 La P'tite Pierre Blanc 10.5% ABV, £7.25, Tesco, Co-op ANOTHER southwestern French blend, this cute-sounding affordable tipple is a good all-rounder featuring a blend of grapes including Gros Manseng and Trebbiano. Its booze level has been lowered to 10.5 per cent, but in a way that feels natural with this bottle's contents – and many drinkers nowadays are actively looking for a lower ABV. This sip is just a bit dialled down on the flavours compared to some of the others. It makes a good session wine, though, and is perfect for parties and barbecues. A decent summer wine that's widely available – and at a very friendly price. Picpoul de Pinet 12.5% ABV, £7.69, Lidl FRANCE is not Lidl's strong suit when it comes to value vino. But this pretty little Picpoul is a decent drop given how expensive this type of grape can be. Hailing from its spiritual home of Pinet in the Languedoc, think green apple, sea salt and citrus in your glass. Picpoul is a style of wine that's super-refreshing and pure. I'd say sipping it is like dunking your head in the sea. Serve a bottle of this very chilled and it's going to be hard to beat with white fish and seafood. If you are feeling fancy, it would be amazing with oysters, but will slip down very nicely with your fish fingers, too.

Gabby Logan and Kirsty Gallacher show off their youthful looks as they pose during Greek holiday together
They have been friends for more than a quarter of a century, having first got to know each other in their mid 20s. However, as these holiday snaps from their time relaxing in Greece this month show Gabby Logan and Kirsty Gallacher look as youthful as ever. The pair have been friends for 25 years and have been pictured together numerous times - often at glitzy bashes and red carpet events. In one photo, taken at the 2002 Elle Style Awards, Gallacher donned a sleeveless top with black trousers as she posed with Logan in a black top and leather skirt. However, fast forward to a photo from their recent holiday in Greece and it's clear that the pair's healthy lifestyle has paid dividends. The latest snap, which showed the pair posing in the sunshine in similar black dresses, was taken as they enjoyed a break with Logan's husband and children on the Greek island of Kefalonia. One of the snaps from the holiday showed the Logan family, including Gabby and her Scots rugby legend husband Kenny, their jockey daughter Lois, 20, and her twin brother Reuben, 20, who plays rugby for Sale Sharks and the Scotland national team. A video also captured the luxury property the group stayed at, which benefitted from a private pool and a view out over the Ionian Sea. One friend even commented on Logan's seemingly timeless appearance next to the younger women in the group, writing: 'You look [like] the older sister.' The family trip comes after Logan's daughter Lois made her debut as a jockey. The 20-year-old rode at Goodwood in the Markel Magnolia Cup and although she did not place with Spirit of Ecstasy, she said she was itching for more. 'It was over so quickly and such a thrill,' she said. 'The horse was incredible and put up such a fight. We finished in midfield, which was not a bad result. 'I have got more of an edge for winning now and am not so scared of speed. It was really good fun.' Her sports broadcaster and former gymnast mother, who co-hosts Match of the Day, said Lois had put her heart and soul into the training and confessed: 'It's harder to watch than rugby ... It is over so quick and like being a sprinter.' But she said: 'All those 4.40am starts and the months of physical training have been worth it.' The invitation-only Magnolia Cup sees riders from the world of business, sport, fashion and media take part to raise money for charity. Lois, whose twin brother Reuben has followed in their ex-Scotland international father's footsteps to rugby, said they had both been encouraged by their parents to participate in sports - but had worked hard and 'never had anything handed' to them. Lois, a student at Loughborough University, won two classes at the 2021 British Showjumping National Championships and qualified for the Horse of the Year Show. But she told the Telegraph she had never even sat on a race horse before this year - with her mother warning that fitting in training with her studies was going to be a challenge.
