This idea that being youthful is the only thing that's beautiful or attractive simply isn't true. I don't want to be an 'ageless beauty.' I want to be a woman who is the best I can be at my age.

You can only perceive real beauty in a person as they get older.

I'll declare my own interest right here at the start and admit that, like the vast majority of people, I find youthful looks appealing.

Ageing is inevitable, and the idea that we can be eternally youthful is the pitfall of our society.

Beauty at 70 years old isn't the same as beauty at 20 years old, but it is stunning nonetheless.

Anyway, what makes people look youthful is the quality of their skin and I don't think you can change that.

There's no such thing is aging, but maturing and knowledge. It's beautiful, I call that beauty.

In your 20s you can be pretty, but you don't accomplish real beauty until you find wisdom and depth.

Surely being a Professional Beauty - let alone an ageing one - is one of the most insecure and doomed careers imaginable.

I think we make a common mistake of all wanting to look younger, and I think there is nothing more attractive, charming and endearing than when you meet a woman and you think she looks amazing for her age rather than 20 years younger because of this, that and everything else.
