Exclusive:
Toyah's beauty survival tactics! There's not a wrinkle to be seen
anywhere on Toyah Willcox's face, and the singer
and actress, 45, has worked hard to keep her
complexion youthful
Even the
experience of being thrown into the Australian
rainforest for ITV1's I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me
Out Of Here! wasn't going to play havoc with the
high priestess of punk's strict beauty regime.
Before she was helicoptered deep into the jungle
for the show, we caught up with Toyah - the
celebrity heading Woman's Own's search for the
real fce of ReviFace, the UK's leading
anti-ageing skin supplement - to discover her top
beauty survival tips for looking and feeling good
in the world.
FACE FACTS
'At my age foundation just cakes on the skin and
makes your wrinkles show up more, so Idon't
wear any foundation these days. I use a
refelctive moisturiser instead.'
SMOKING
'I'm very anti-smoking, and I don't go anywhere
where people are allowed to smoke.'
DRINK UP 'I
avoid alcohol at all costs. Alcohol is so
calorific, and I gave it up when I began trying
to deal with my weight.'
SUPPLEMENT
YOUR DIET 'I take cod liver oil, vitamin E and
chromium supplements to help me stay physically
fit. Calcium also protects me against
osteoporosis.'
FOOD FOR
THOUGHT 'I get ravenously hungry but I never eat
after 7pm, and when I want something sweet I chew
on sugar-free gum. I also have no caffeine and
virtually no meat in my diet. I'm very
diet-concious and love drinking fresh carrot
juice.'
UP FOR IT
'I do 200 press-ups a day and 600 sit-ups. I love
physicality. It only aids your health but it
makes you feel much brighter mentally.'
LOOK TO THE
FUTURE 'I take ReviFace skincare supplements. My
energy levels are at an all-time high since I
started taking them. They also help if you
strugle with PMT, as I have done in the past.'
HAIR WE GO
'I cut my hair myself and use hot-oil treatments
at least once a week to keep it looking
good.'
MAKE TIME
FOR YURSELF 'If your life is terribly stressful,
it's important to take time to chill out for a
little while each day.'
FEEL GOOD
'For women especially, life really begins at 40.
By that time, we've got all those years'
experience, so we should feel good about
ourselves.'
Woman's
Own, 2003
