Who told you beauty fades with time? There are many women who have defied this belief. With melanin popping and allowing nature to take its course, they remain the beauty standard. They leave us guessing their ages because they invested beauty routine and lifestyle that favours them. They may be in their 50s or lesser but don’t look or feel it.
