Eva Mendes has found the fountain of youth!
The 41-year-old actress took to Instagram to share a throwback pic from her first red carpet appearance at "The Others" premiere back in 2001 -- and she hasn't aged a bit.
"The debut of my latest @nyandcompany collection has me throwing back to my first red carpet," she wrote. "I did my own hair and make up and that's a $6 dress from Goodwill. I've always loved a cheap find. Viva thrift shops!"
In the pic, a then-27-year-old Eva looked gorgeous in an extremely affordable white shift dress, which she paired with brown heels and an orange tote.
While we're impressed how glamorous she looks in her thrift-store threads, it's her glowing skin that really steals the spotlight. And when you look at the side-by-side pics above, it's clear that she's been able to maintain that youthful glow! So, what's her secret?
"When it comes to skincare, I love using things I can find in my kitchen cabinet!" she told Violet Grey back in November. "I use coconut oil as a moisturizer, and I combine yogurt and sea salt to exfoliate."
If it works for Eva, it works for us!
