Looking and staying young, most often than not, is constant work. One cannot live a lackluster lifestyle and look his best forever. It takes discipline to maintain youth.

Since celebrities are in the business of beauty, taking care of themselves is a part of their job and lifestyle.

So let’s take a rundown at some of the most youthful looking Filipina celebrities who are in their 50s.
