Flawless and ageless! Eva Mendes posted a nearly unbelievable Flashback Friday Instagram post on August 26, where the actress shows that her looks may stay youthful until the end of time.
Mendes, 42, shared a side-by-side photo comparing her two Latina magazine covers from 13 years apart. “2003. 2016. @latina magazine out now 💋 #EvaOnLatina #fbf,” she posted. In her first cover, the New York & Company clothing designer smoldered in minimal eye makeup and a light lip, and styled her brunette locks stick straight with side-swept bangs.
She didn’t look a day older for her September 2016 cover story, sassing it up for the camera in a black-and-white print top with blouson sleeves.
The CIRCA Cosmetics entrepreneur has been open about how she preserves her youthful looks. “Drinking warm water and lemon every morning before my coffee and staying hydrated all day long really helps me stay healthy and helps my skin look its best,” she said in a June 2015 Facebook Q&A. She also slicks on plenty of coconut oil. “I use it on my face, my body and even my hair. Couldn’t live without it!” she added.
Mendes— who’s mom of Esmeralda, 21 months, and Amada, 3 months, with partner Ryan Gosling — may look the same as she did in 2003, but her life has undoubtedly changed (for the better!) with her new brood. In her September 2016 Latina cover story, she gushed about the joys of motherhood.
“It’s early for me to make any big statement about having children,” she noted. “My older little girl is not yet 2 years old. My little one is still an infant, and right now it’s really about surviving those nights and trying to enjoy this time as much as possible with them, and start the bond between Esmeralda and Amada. It’s a really, really special time. I’m loving it.”
