Why Vera Wang Doesn’t Age: 5 Secrets to Her Octogenarian “Eternal Youth”

Vera Wang suffers from many allergies, so she is very careful about the beauty products she uses. In her youth, Vera loved to take a shower, but now she prefers a soothing bath. Her focus on hydration is why she really uses baby oil when it comes to nourishing and soothing skin. Her second must-have is sunscreen with SPF 30.

Working and doing what you love is the best way to prolong your youth. Moreover, she thinks that aging is too old-fashioned because in life people shouldn’t stop in their development and learn new things all the time.

By the nature of her job, Vera has to constantly stare at the phone, computer and TV screen. She thinks glasses designed to protect the eyes are extremely important for the preservation of the iris.

“We have to be careful because the damage will eventually catch up with us,” she warns.

Vera has also amassed an impressive collection of over a thousand pairs of sunglasses since 1973, when she was still editor-in-chief at Vogue.

Vera likes her strength training to be light and fast, and she doesn’t lift dumbbells heavier than 1.5 kg. She only spends 5 minutes working out in the gym, but enjoys cycling around her area when she has free time and playing golf. Wong admits she’s a terrible, albeit “enthusiastic” player.

Vera’s kitchen has two TVs, an ice cream freezer, a soda fridge and a healthy food fridge. She also has a candy pantry, cereal pantry, and french fries pantry, which she loves.

Wong also admits he can indulge in fast food or donuts. Once, when she was busy filming with her crew for several days, Vera ate every day at a hamburger restaurant.

“I know people say it’s all bad for the body, but I don’t think so. It’s not much worse than a lot of other things,” she noted.

Well, at least for Wong herself, all of these life hacks work – she looks amazing!
