Age is just a number, so the saying goes, but for a select few celebrities – blessed with personal trainers and beauty treatments galore – it’s a number that doesn’t quite match their still-youthful looks.

A-lister Gwyneth Paltrow has been breaking the internet with her ‘Birthday Suit’ celebration snaps on Instagram in recent years and, to celebrate her 50th birthday on 27th September, the Goop founder decided to go all out. 

The actress posed nude, proving she’s in her golden era, by covering half of her body in gold spray paint. And she looks just as good as she did 25 years ago at the height of her film career.

Alongside the likes of Jennifer Aniston, JLo and Halle Berry, Paltrow has seemingly discovered the fountain of youth, showing few signs of ageing over the past few decades. 

Here, FEMAIL rounds up the celebrities over the age of 50 whose faces haven’t changed…
