You Won’t Believe What Diana Ross Does to Keep Her Skin Eternally Youthful!

"Instead of looking at the past, I put myself ahead twenty years and try to look at what I need to do now in order to get there then."

Diana Ross’s transcendent talent and energy know no limits. With a career spanning over 64 years, the legendary singer has a catalog of hit albums and best-selling singles under her belt. Not just that! Ross has also been applauded for her acting roles. In addition to a lifetime of achievements, Ross is known for her effortless style and grace. Over the years, the star has shared a few secrets behind her youthful zest.

Recently, the musical icon’s daughter, Tracee Ellis Ross, shared that her mother’s individualism makes a difference in how she carries herself. Many celebrities travel with massive glam squads to always look picture-perfect, but Diana Ross has always done her own makeup and hair. In a way, she considers beauty a way to exercise her agency. Youthfulness has as much to do with the mind as the body, and Ross’s seemingly eternal radiance hinges on her philosophy of using her beauty as a tool of empowerment instead of conformity.

The singer’s insistence on individualism has rubbed off on her daughter, which is why Ellis Ross credits her mother for her strong sense of self. “I used to crouch on the floor in the dressing room, and I watched my mother transform into this other version of herself,” Ellis Ross revealed on Dear Media’s Breaking Beauty Podcast. She added, “But what I understood as beauty growing up was it wasn’t about, ‘Look at me,’ it was about, ‘This is me,’ and it was about sort of transforming yourself into another version, and making a choice… that was really about how you wanted to show up in the world, versus trying to become something for someone else.”

Additionally, one of Ross’s beauty must-haves is the right scent. She finds similarities in the language of music and the language of fragrance. She also believes it is incredibly important to smell how you envision yourself. Unsurprisingly, Ross has her own fragrance. “It’s light enough, yet exquisite enough…I wanted the fragrance to have a little bit of a mystery. I wanted it to sing,” Ross told Vogue about her signature fragrance.

Over the decades, Ross has reinvented her artistry several times. Yet, if there is one enduring thing about her, it is her glamorous dressing sense. Whether she is rocking neon-glow dresses or sequined gowns, Ross subscribes to the idea of maximalism in clothing. Fuchsia feathers and dazzling Bob Mackie dresses also represent Ross’s unique and timeless style.

Apart from beauty must-haves, a unique sense of style, and the right attitude, Ross is also particular about her health and tries to keep her life in order. Being healthy also keeps her energy up and makes her look as good as she does.
