Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Kim Alexis embraces aging naturally without cosmetic procedures
Kim Alexis is turning 65 in July – and she's determined to "age gracefully." The '80s supermodel, who appeared on over 500 magazine covers and posed for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit six times, has been vocal on Instagram about embracing the natural signs of aging. The 64-year-old has written several books about clean eating over the years. "I have not had any work done on my face," the former cover girl told Fox News Digital. "I am a big believer in staying as natural as possible. I accept and enjoy my wrinkles. I am not here to prove anything. I am going to be 65 in a month … and I earned them." "I do try to look as good as possible," she shared. "I think we all do, although there are some days when I don't. I just wear my hair in a ponytail, and I don't put makeup on. I'm still a human being, and I'm still me. I have to learn to love and accept myself the way I am." "I don't disparage other women from doing things," she continued. "Women get very, very protective, I think, of what they choose to do. And when I say I don't want to have any procedures, sometimes it makes them very defensive, and I'm not here to do that. I'm here to set an example of here's how you can look at 65. If you want to join me, fine. If not, do your own thing." Alexis praised other models from her era, like Christie Brinkley and Paulina Porizkova, who have been candid about their journeys with aging on social media. "We're all just trying to be our best," said Alexis. "I want to stay active and just try to be my best. It gives me a goal to make good choices towards health, not away from health." Alexis said having a youthful spirit keeps her moving. Age is just a number, she stressed. "Figuring out when it was that I started thinking about aging gracefully, I think it was a gradual process," she explained.

A part of me just wants to accept them." "I'm a very natural person, so I don't like messing around with nature… I like to use what God put on this planet to try and help heal me or keep me at a clean level," she shared. "I'm trying to put good things in my body versus clogging it with things that may cause wrinkles or may cause me to be exhausted or may cause me to have a bad attitude." "If you look at my skin [from when I was] 18, why do I need a facial?" Alexis reflected. "I want to do my maintenance in a healthy way, not with… things injected in. Part of my mantra is just trying to find clean, healthy things and be natural." Alexis said that these days, she keeps her beauty routine super simple, focusing on lots of hydration, moisturizing, as well as exfoliating her skin once a week to keep it supple. The star also prefers to keep her silvery strands golden. She prioritizes staying active daily to both look and feel her best. "I've always been [active] since I was young," she said. "Fitness is something I have to do. [At age 20] I discovered running, and to prove that I was an athlete, I ran eight marathons. . . . I think when I turned about 62, 63, my knee started acting up and a doctor benched me. And so, I had to look around and say, 'OK Kim, you don't want to go back in the pool, because that's just staring at a black line all the time.' "And I do go once in a while, but going in a pool kind of messes up my golf game, and I do a lot of golf charity events. . . . It messes with my shoulders. . . . So, I've learned to go biking or rowing or the elliptical or taking a class." "I do free weights," she shared. "I love my little dumbbells. I go in with all the guys over at the guys' section of the gym. I do my dumbbell routine of keeping my upper body strong. My husband and I do leg workouts together maybe once every week or two weeks. Even just getting out every day and walking my dog, I love being outside." Alexis made her SI Swimsuit debut in 1982. During the decadent decade, she traveled to Kenya, Jamaica, Australia and other beachy destinations with the brand. "Being in Sports Illustrated for the swimsuits was really great," Alexis recalled. "Number one, I grew up swimming, so I was comfortable in a swimsuit. And when I got interviewed, I sat there in jeans and a t-shirt in a New York City office and got the job without having to expose my body. . . . Being outdoors and being athletic and being in a swimsuit was right up my alley." Still, the star admitted she wasn't prepared for the newfound attention she received. "When I started to get feedback from men, I think that's when I realized, ah, I'm hitting a different population," she said. "It's not just the women who are looking at the fashion magazines. It's now the men who are noticing. And Jule Campbell, who was the editor at Sports Illustrated, was kind enough to put our names in the magazine so people could know the name and know the face or body." Alexis went on to pivot her career to Hollywood. She notably appeared in the last episode of "Cheers," titled "One for the Road," in 1993. It was that moment when Alexis knew she had made it. "Being on the last episode of 'Cheers' was, in a way, mind-blowing," she said. "I would sit in the back room and listen to the part of the script that I wasn't in. But they kept saying, 'Supermodel Kim Alexis!' I'm like, 'You got to be kidding me.' They keep saying my name. It was like free promotion. That was a blast." And she didn't leave empty-handed. "I had everyone sign the script cover of my script, and I still have that," she boasted. "It's very special to me." Today, Alexis happily calls Arizona home, where she's raised a family. She's been enjoying connecting with fans on social media and giving women advice on aging. "For people who don't want to look their age, I think it's a mindset," she said. "If you are joyful about life and grateful and kind and giving to other people, I think you have a spark and an attraction that other people want to see."

It's also been shown to relieve joint pain and improve mobility in those with osteoarthritis, making it a popular choice for active individuals and those experiencing age-related joint issues. Each 500g tub contains pure collagen peptides sourced from grass-fed, pasture-raised cattle with no hormones, antibiotics, or GMOs. It's also gluten-free, keto-friendly and paleo-approved, making it a versatile choice for a range of dietary needs.

Paulina Porizkova, 60, reveals what part of her supermodel body she loves the most
Paulina Porizkova, 60, reveals what part of her supermodel body she loves the most Have YOU got a story? Email tips@ Paulina Porizkova revealed the part of her body that she has grown to love more at age 60. As a supermodel, she said she had always been taught to sell a 'vision of beauty inextricably linked to youth' but is now embracing growing older. She also opened up about the 'best part' of aging in a Harper's Bazaar interview published on Monday — just shortly after she rang in her milestone birthday in a bikini earlier this month. She talked about her newly rekindled partnership with Estée Lauder — over three decades after she served as the face of the brand in her 20s — and talked about how she wants to now spread the message of positive aging. And she added that her favorite part of getting older was her hair. 'I love my gray hair,' she admitted to the outlet. Paulina Porizkova revealed the part of her body that she has grown to love more at age 60; pictured in April 2023 As a supermodel, she said she had always been taught to sell a 'vision of beauty inextricably linked to youth' but is now embracing growing older; pictured in March 2023 'It still requires maintenance, believe it or not,' she continued. 'But I feel very good about my hair.' The Swedish-American model also discussed the 'best part' of aging overall and explained that it is when 'you finally turn into the person that you were meant to be all along.' She added: 'And perhaps that's not always a happy finding. 'But I think if you try to live your life with an understanding that other people matter, that connections matter, and that love matters, then you won't be disappointed with who that person is that you truly are.' She also told the outlet about how old she feels now since she marked her milestone birthday earlier this month. 'Do I feel younger? No. But every year I feel smarter, wiser, and better. So, I guess that makes me 60!' When asked about what keeps her feeling 'vibrant and youthful,' Porizkova poked fun at her own answer and called herself a 'meme.' 'Hope,' she responded. 'And how do you cultivate hope? Gratitude. I sound like an Instagram meme, but unfortunately, it's kind of true.' She also opened up about the 'best part' of aging in a Harper's Bazaar interview published on Monday — just shortly after she rang in her milestone birthday in a bikini earlier this month And she added that her favorite part of getting older was her hair. 'I love my gray hair,' she admitted to the outlet. 'It still requires maintenance, believe it or not,' she continued. 'But I feel very good about my hair'; pictured in January 2023 Porizkova continued: 'Because I've gone through a part of life where I utterly lost hope, I understand what it's like when you're living a life you don't want.' She continued: 'And it's a horrible feeling. It robs you of everything. So, hope is really the most important thing there is.' She also brought up a similar message she had shared in her 2022 memoir, No Filter: The Good, the Bad, and the Beautiful. 'Because if you have hope, even that just tomorrow is going to be a better day, then you've got it,' she said. 'And I have hope. I've had hope for a while that tomorrow will be a better day, and now I have the gratitude that it is better every day.' She also previously talked about another aspect of aging she likes in her post-menopausal years. The Swedish-American model also discussed the 'best part' of aging overall and explained that it is when 'you finally turn into the person that you were meant to be all along' 'One of the incredible things about aging is that you care less and less about what other people think,' she told People in October 2023. 'You're like, "You know what? I've done my bit. I've been serving everybody else for 50 years — now, it's my turn."' At the time, she also said that she is sure 'without a doubt that I am the best that I've ever been.' 'Why do I need improvement? I'm in my prime right now,' she continued. 'I'm sorry that you think my wrinkles dismiss me from being in my prime, but as a person, as a fully formed woman at the height of her power, this is it.'

I use this $24 anti-aging eye cream religiously. If you have hyperpigmentation, I would recommend it
When I turned 40, with a baby on the way, it became much more challenging to conceal the puffy eyes and dark circles of a sleepless night. A few years later, I added another kiddo, and tired eyes became my trademark look. I tried dozens of products to revive the delicate under-eye area, but it wasn't until CeraVe's Eye Repair Cream that I actually started to notice long-term improvements. As someone with easily irritated eyes, this lightweight cream is my daily go-to. So, when my four-year-old is up at 3 a.m. with an ear infection, CeraVe's eye cream will help to hide the evidence of a sleepless night. I'm not the only one who loves this affordable beauty product — according to our data, hundreds of Yahoo readers have also snapped it up. Read on to find out why I'm obsessed. With continued use, this lightweight cream will help reduce the look of puffiness and dark circles. This fragrance-free, ophthalmologist-tested eye cream contains three essential ceramides and hydrating hyaluronic acid. It's made with a patented delivery system that continually releases the ingredients so your eyes stay moisturized all day long. With continued regular use, you will notice a reduction in dark circles and under-eye puffiness. Apply a few dots of the cream to your under-eye area in the morning and evening, and gently smooth until fully absorbed. It works great alone or under makeup. The CeraVe eye cream, developed with dermatologists, is non-comedogenic and great for all skin types. It's great for sensitive eyes: I love how the CeraVe cream moisturizes without irritating my sensitive eyes. It absorbs quickly and is a great primer for my under-eye concealer. Each application requires just a few dots of the product, so the little tube goes a long way. Dermatologist-approved: I also appreciate that the product has been recognized by the Canadian Dermatology Association and has been well-tested by experts. It's not just some gimmicky eye cream but one that has a lot of science behind it, which matters to me. Great for hyperpigmentation: With more than 3,500 reviews and a 4.3-star rating, it's clear I am not the only one who swears by this hydrating cream. One shopper said they wished they had found it sooner as it significantly "reduced hyperpigmentation" under their eyes. They stated that their under-eye area became 30 per cent lighter, which they say is a "big win." Not greasy: Another reviewer mentions how "non-greasy" the cream is and that it doesn't irritate sensitive eyes, while another person calls it a "wonderful product." Paulina Porizkova, 59, is 'completely and utterly fangirling' over this viral anti-aging treatment Shania Twain, 59, has used this multipurpose beauty balm since the '90s — it's the 'best of all things' This 'nasty, yet super satisfying' Amazon foot peel mask is the best $14 I've ever spent on my feet It's not a quick-fix eye cream: This product is great, but it's not a fast-acting wonder cream. You need to use it for several weeks, if not months, to see any remarkable improvements. Also, you can't skip applications, or it will set your results back. Commit to using it for a solid six months before you assess if it's working for you. Some Amazon reviewers mentioned they saw no visible difference after a few weeks; however, from personal experience, the cream takes time to do its thing. I promise, if you stick with it, your under-eye area will improve — just don't give up! It's not as hydrating as other eye creams: The eye cream could be a tad thicker; however, it probably wouldn't absorb as well if it was. CeraVe has a unique formula that may take a while to work, but once it does, it's great. My advice? Don't throw in the towel just yet. With more than 2,100 five-star reviews, I am far from the only fan of CeraVe's Eye Repair Cream. One reviewer, who has struggled with "hollow eyes" and "hyperpigmentation" their "whole life," says the eye cream has made their under-eye area "about 30 per cent lighter" — a "big win" for them. They write that their dark eye bags are "barely noticeable" after applying makeup. "I will definitely be buying [it] again." Another shopper agrees it's a "great cream for dark circles," adding that it works "way better than expensive eye creams." "Every dollar spent on it is worth it," they write. "My advice," echoes a third shopper: "Throw out all your expensive skin care" and only buy CeraVe products. They're "reasonably priced," and, importantly, "they work." Despite thousands of five-star reviews, some warn it's "not a miracle product" and agree it can take a few months to show noticeable results. I love CeraVe products, and this one is no exception. It's gentle on my eye area, and after using it for a few months straight, I saw significant improvements in my dark circles and under-eye puffiness. That said, if you are looking for something to quickly erase a night out with the girls or a long overseas flight, this is probably not going to provide the quick fix you need. This lightweight cream will yield results, but it's going to take some time. If you commit to using it twice a day for the next six months, I'm certain you will be impressed with what you see (and don't see) under your eyes in the morning.

Paulina Porizkova, 59, is 'completely and utterly fangirling' over this viral anti-aging treatment
I'm a simple girl. If a supermodel recommends an anti-aging beauty product, I pay attention. If the supermodel has used said product for 35 years, well, I'm adding it to my cart. As an Estée Lauder global ambassador, model Paulina Porizkova may have skin in the game to sing the praises of Estée Lauder products. Still, considering she's used its famous Advanced Night Repair Serum since the '80s, I'm inclined to believe her. Quick shop: Paulina Porizkova's beauty must haves In a video posted to Instagram, the 59-year-old model — who recently reunited with Estée Lauder after being the brand's spokesperson in the '80s — shared her "real nighttime routine," featuring several Estée Lauder bestsellers. Shop the Advanced Night Repair Serum Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex in four sizes: 20 mL, 30 mL, 50 mL and 115 mL. "This is my real nighttime routine, every night," she captioned the post. "Advanced Night Repair, it's the one thing I will be going to bed with — that and my boyfriend," a bare-faced Porizkova tells the camera. "35 years ago, I used to use it back then, too." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Paulina Porizkova (@paulinaporizkov) The Advanced Night Repair Serum Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex, one of Estée Lauder's all-time bestselling products, is a deep- and fast-penetrating face serum designed to visibly reduce several signs of aging and promote a smoother, younger and more radiant look. "I used it when I was younger and didn't even need it," she told the brand. "Here I am using it still, and now I can truly see a difference." In the video, Porizkova follows up the cult-favourite anti-aging serum with her "current favourite" Estée Lauder product, the Advanced Night Repair Overnight Treatment. This overnight treatment mask is dermatologist-tested and non-comedogenic, so it won't clog pores or cause breakouts. "You wake up, and you might not feel bouncy, but your skin does," she says. "Now, the Advanced Night Repair Overnight Treatment will make you look like you had a perfect overnight sleep, even if you didn't." The Overnight Skin Treatment is a breathable balm designed to support barrier recovery and visibly recharge your skin with intense moisture. "It helps skin look like it got two nights of sleep in one," according to the brand. In another interview, the Czech-born supermodel called the overnight treatment "one of the most amazing things [she has] ever put on [her] face." "I am completely and utterly fangirling over [it]," she said. "It really does make you look like you got a great night's sleep. It is mind-blowing." From Estée Lauder's Advanced Night Repair Overnight Treatment to the Jones Road Miracle Balm, here are five mature skin essentials Porizkova swears by. "Advanced Night Repair, it's the one thing I will be going to bed with — that and my boyfriend," Paulina Porizkova said in an Instagram video. "35 years ago, I used to use it back then, too." In an Instagram video, Porizkova called "good old Pond's Cold Cream" her "go-to to get all the makeup off" at night. "You wake up, and you might not feel bouncy, but your skin does," the Czech-born supermodel said. "Now, the Advanced Night Repair Overnight Treatment will make you look like you had a perfect overnight sleep, even if you didn't." It's "one of the most amazing things I ever put on my face." In an Instagram post, Porizkova calls the Jones Road Miracle Balm an "oldie but goodie" in her makeup arsenal, stating that she "loves it so much." She claims it's "really wonderful for older (and somewhat dry) skin." 'This has become my total go-to for base...," the Czech-born model said on Instagram. "It feels really really good on… it goes on sort of like a serum and sort of like a foundation... It doesn't feel like you're wearing foundation or makeup, really. It just makes your skin feel and look nice, it doesn't cover too much, it's quite sheer… it just kind of evens everything out."
