Actress Cheryl Ladd today might make you wonder what fountain of youth the former Charlie’s Angels star is sipping from. And we wish she’d give us a little taste of it, too! From her flawless skin tone to her luscious golden locks, it’s utterly mind-blowing to us that she is 72 years old.

And Ladd’s doesn’t just look youthful, she seems to have endless energy to tackle her busy schedule. Though she packed up her Kris Munroe costume more than three decades ago, Cheryl Ladd is still very much active in show business today. After Charlie’s Angels ended in 1981, she’s appeared in countless TV shows and movies over the years — and she’s not slowing down, with her most recent role being in the 2022 film, A Cowgirl’s Song.

And aside from taking roles in TV shows and movies, Cheryl Ladd is also doing a big part to raise awareness of important issues, like cataracts and cataract surgery. After her husband was diagnosed with cataracts and underwent the procedure to get them fixed, she had the opportunity to educate herself about it and use her huge platform educate others as well.

    Part of Ladd’s secret to her youthful appearance is the fact that she says her focus is not on strict dietary restrictions, but defining a "5-pound window" for her ideal weight and trying to stick with it. But she admits this window has evolved over the years. Ladd said in an interview with our sister magazine First for Women, “When I was on Charlie's Angels, I was somewhere between 103 and 108 pounds. And would stay within those 5 pounds at all times. As I got older and into my late 30s and 40s, it was closer to 112. And today my window is … a bit higher.” Ladd admits to weighing herself daily, a practice she finds important for staying on top of her health and sticking within her defined range. Her commitment to this daily ritual keeps her accountable and ensures she doesn't veer too far from her desired weight. She stresses that it's not about obsession but about staying conscious of her health and well-being.

    Cheryl Ladd's beauty routine is refreshingly uncomplicated. Ladd explains, “I have tried just about every foundation on the planet.” But the product she has stuck with for over 35 years – Clinique's super balanced makeup foundation. Cheryl also shares her preference for makeup wipes over complicated cleansing routines, believing they are gentler on the skin and contribute to her radiant appearance. Her youthful makeup tips include using soft taupe eyeshadow and opting for dark brown mascara rather than black for a softer more natural effect.

    Whether it's playing golf with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson or visiting her mom, Cheryl Ladd is always on the go. She says, "I'm a doer. I try to do active things all day, even if it's just cleaning out my closet. I'll sort and reorganize things just to get up and about. I'll visit friends and run errands for my mother. I'll play golf. Then, in the evening, that's when I'll watch my favorite shows, listen to music, check the computer, or read a book. That's when I relax. I feel like I've earned it."

  9. Cheryl Ladd is young at heart

    We have to be honest, Cheryl Ladd almost looks like a teenager in this adorable Halloween costume. Part of how she stays young is by being playful and positive. She's always up for a new experience or adventure. She explains, "I think it's very important to destress and just have fun. Because our lives are very busy, which can be a good thing. Having a lot going on in your life is great. But, taking the time to unplug from all that is extremely important."

Ladd says, "You’re supposed to smell the coffee and giggle with each other and don’t worry…there will always be enough serious stuff in your life that you will have to deal with." She makes it a point to be present with her friends and enjoy the little moments.

    Cheryl Ladd (pictured here with John Travolta), has come to terms with her age. She told First for Women, "I think turning 60 caused me to relax about all of it. I'm just me. And I think that it's really important that we all make peace with that person we see in the mirror. Then, when we want to get all dolled up, maintain our diets, keep our health, wear the right clothes, and feel fresh and good for your age… That's okay too. But don't obsess about it."

  13. Cheryl Ladd surrounds herself with positivity

    Surrounding herself with positive people (like her publicist Jay Schwartz whom she's known for 20 years) and having faith are two important factors in her life. Ladd's journey hasn't been without challenges. At the height of her success during her Charlie's Angels years, her personal and spiritual life took a downturn. She went through a difficult divorce, and in her darkest moments, she realized that she needed to reconnect with her faith and surrounding herself with positive friends and loved ones.  

  14. Cheryl Ladd finds joy in giving back

It's also very peaceful, because when I'm out with my dog and visiting with my family, neighbors and friends, I'm happy."
