But Mariah Carey has a novel anti-ageing technique – refusing to acknowledge that time even exists.
The diva, who has previously said she doesn't celebrate her birthday and instead refers to it as her 'anniversary', said of ageing: 'I don't know time.
"I don't know numbers. I do not acknowledge time – I have a new song that starts with that line…'
That may well be the case, but given she is now 56 – even though she may claim otherwise – I'm sure there must be something else going on because she looks half that age.

He said: 'I'm very lucky and very, very happy. Just being able to take care of something and show it the childhood I didn't have.
"I assume you just try to give them what you didn't have, and what you didn't like, not do it.'

When she smashes every performance, it's hard to imagine Jade isn't oozing confidence.
But the Angel Of My Dreams singer admits she finds it so terrifying she has even had hypnotism in a bid to calm her nerves.
On Friday the former Little Mix star did a show with the Royal Northern Sinfonia, available on
BBC
Sounds, and reflected on how she copes.
She wrote on Instagram: 'I have terrible stage nerves before every show – ever since I was a little girl, and over the years that would get the better of me, be it running off stage crying, to 'freezing' or my voice going.
'I've tried hypnotherapy, other therapies and have my little coping mechanisms.'
Jade, who plays All Points East in London next month, added: 'But I'm immensely proud that whenever my fight or flight kicks in I overcome that inner saboteur and imposter syndrome.'
