Cameron Diaz is 52 years old, has two children, and looks just as she did when she filmed “The Mask.” Believe it or not, three full decades have passed since then.

How did Cameron Diaz cheat time? We looked for answers in the books she has published. “The Body Book” from 2013 is a kind of guide to a happy life, while her 2016 title, “The Longevity Book: The Science Of Aging, The Biology Of Strength And The Privilege Of Time,” could be loosely translated as “The Science of Aging, The Biology of Strength, and the Privilege of Time.”

The Hollywood star emphasizes that her works are intended for women, as they discuss how to gracefully accept the aging process and cope with everything that comes with it. She has repeatedly stated that she does not like how today’s young women are overly preoccupied with their appearance.

The actress once revealed that early in her career, she struggled with self-confidence due to her appearance. She only gained control when she learned to accept herself. “I had those ugly pimples, so I spent half my life trying to hide them from friends, cameras, everyone. The problem was with my diet. I wish I had known some of the things I know now when I was sixteen, but one learns as long as one lives.”

“Botox distorted my face terribly. I didn’t want to look like that. I would rather age naturally than wake up with a face that doesn’t belong to me. After this bad experience, I came to love my wrinkles. They don’t bother me; on the contrary. They prove that I have been laughing all my life, that I am happy and content. We are in our bodies from the first to the last day, and yet we know so little about them. Knowledge is power,” concludes the actress, who has also spoken openly about her struggles with diet.

“You should eat what you love. I adored fast food until I realized the consequences it has, but I admit that I still sometimes ‘sin’ with fries. I often falter and reach for unhealthy foods, but I don’t overindulge in anything. It frustrates me that we live in a society that sells women all sorts of nonsense about slowing down aging. It turns out that we should believe we’ve done something wrong because we haven’t managed to stay young. I wish it were allowed for us to age gracefully, to understand that with age comes wisdom. One should age with style. If you aren’t aging, it means you’re dead, and keep in mind that no anti-aging program will turn back the clock.”
