Because of our youth-obsession culture, there’s a lot of pressure to go under the needle or get laser or other anti-ageing treatments. Naturally, this gets a lot of people into a bit of a panic as they worry over their looks.

So in an effort to spread the good vibes, we wanted to remind you that many Egyptian celebrities are not interested in artificially turning back time and are embracing their true age. In this article, we’ve rounded up some of these famous faces who prove that age is just a number.

Shereen Reda

We don’t think it is possible for the ageless beauty queen to go grey! Our beloved, playful actress is 53, but her gorgeous face, stamina, and charisma all scream that she’s in her twenties. She began her career as the pretty girl everyone falls for, and we think she’s still got it. After all, it’s impossible to break out of the beauty queen mould.

Anoushka

Another iconic superstar who ages beautifully is Anoushka. Turning 62 this year (although the rest of us can’t believe it), the star is a firm believer in the power of meditation, with her physique and smooth skin proving that inner peace reflects on the outside. Maybe it’s her Armenian roots or the fact that she’s very sporty and leads a healthy lifestyle that makes her age this gracefully, don’t you think?

Nelly Karim

We know that ballet can help you maintain a proper physique and flexibility, but we didn’t realise it can help you defy your age! Egypt’s sweetheart and acting giant, Nelly Karim, has blessed us with many iconic roles over the years, but we can’t help but misjudge her age whenever we see her. She doesn’t look like she’s in her forties, does she?

Khaled El-Nabawy

Did you know that charisma is now personified and stands on its own two feet because it’s being embodied by Khaled El-Nabawy? Yes, of course you did! After seeing all of Rag’een Ya Hawa, it’s hard to wrap our heads around the fact that this star is 55 years old but doesn’t look like it at all!

Ahmed Helmy

Loved by millions, Egypt’s national treasure Ahmed Helmy is one of the actors who don’t look their age, right? With his cool hairstyles, glasses, and, of course, charisma, it’s hard to believe that he’s 52 and not much younger! Wasn’t he that youngster from Mido Mashakel only a few years back? When did time fly by so fast?

Mostafa Fahmi

Although he’s been away from media for some time, Mostafa Fami has never left our minds! However, we do see the star a lot on social media, and we only have one thing to say: Mostafa Fahmi hasn’t aged in twenty years. Scary? We don’t think so. This Egyptian icon is only 79 years old but still looks handsome—he’s the true definition of ageing like fine wine!
