How to reverse ageing in just 2 weeks, according to royal go-to nutritionist
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.
"Nothing takes my make-up off like this," Tara said in the YouTube video.
"This stuff is the bomb. I love this stuff. I've been using it for so many years.
"I've used other balm make-up removed but nothing grabs the make-up off like this one, let me tell you - it's so good!"

Hallow Road review: Claustrophobic tension-fuelled thriller set almost entirely inside a moving car is full of surprises
Alice says she hit a pedestrian while driving through the woods. The car is in a ditch, the stranger is unresponsive, and the ambulance has yet to show. Luckily, mam and dad have a second car. It'll take them an hour to reach Alice, but Frank (a first-class worrier) and Maddie (an experienced paramedic) will stay on the phone all night, if they need to. Think you know where this is headed? Think again. Partly filmed in Ireland, Hallow Road plots an unusual course and is set almost entirely inside a moving car. It's a claustrophobic stage, for any actor, but Pike and Rhys rise to the challenge, and this eerie, tension-fuelled two-hander, directed by Babak Anvari, is full of surprises. You'll ask yourself what you'd do, in Maddie's situation – you might also start to wonder what sort of film you're watching. I've said too much. Prepare to be stunned.

GAA star Jarly Óg Burns and girlfriend Tara Donagh announce engagement
The couple, who met while in college at St Mary's University College in Belfast, have been together ever since With four short words Armagh's Jarlath Óg Burns and girlfriend, Tara Donagh, announced their engagement. 'And so it begins' the happy couple posted on social media alongside an engagement ring emoji. In pictures the midfielder and bride-to-be are seen standing on a beach as Tara shows off her engagement ring. Friends, family and fans flocked to the comments section to congratulate them on their big news. One said: "Congratulations Tara" and a second commented: "Aww congratulations Tara" A third said: "Amazing!! Congrats to you both" and a fourth posted: "Aw Tara, big congratulations to you". President of the GAA Jarlath Burns celebrates with his son Jarlath Og Burns at the Senior All-Ireland Football Final One of those who left a message is his brother, Lorcan, who wrote: "Stag?" to which Jarly Og reacted with a laughing face emoji Jarly Og Burns is the son of GAA President Jarlath Burns, and is one of five children. At last year's Amgen Irish Open in Co Down, Jarlath spoke about Tara and the support she has shown him over the years they have been together. 'She's a Tyrone woman for my sins,' he told EVOKE. 'She puts up with a lot from me now in fairness.' One of the first people Jarlath went to when the final whistle blew for this year's All-Ireland was Tara. 'I saw her up in the stand and hugged a very good girlfriend.' The couple, who met while in college at St Mary's University College in Belfast, have been together ever since. 'She's in her final year now of medicine and will be a doctor in March,' Jarlath said. Speaking about embracing his father when the final whistle sounded on the 1-11 to 0-13 win over Galway in the All-Ireland last July son Jarly said: 'Maybe it was an outburst of emotion for that moment. 'It's a completely freakish thing. I'm sure if someone wrote the story like that, someone would say, 'You can't, that's too unrealistic'. 'He's the second president from Armagh and it is our second All-Ireland, and to be in his first year is insane. 'And people saying to him, 'Jeez, wouldn't it be great to be handing Sam over' and for that to happen is nuts. 'I just caught eyes with him and I thought I would go up and share this moment with him. "He said he was very proud of me and it was father-son stuff. It was a great moment.' Jarlath Óg Burns and Tara announce their engagement News in 90 Seconds - May 28th
