WE all want to know the secret to looking younger for longer, well one woman might've just found it.
Belicia Arnold, from Australia, revealed her mum's secret to looking like she's in her 20s, despite actually being 51-years-old.
It's not expensive creams or luxurious serums the mum swears by – it's a simple fruit juice she drinks daily.
The four-ingredient juice contains apples, oranges, carrots, and a small amount of ginger – and there are no added powers, proteins or supplements.
According to Belicia, her mum has been drinking the same juice for 20 years, and has even used the same trusty blender for all of that time.
"She would make this for me and my sisters and it would give us the most amazing energy boost, not to mention all the benefits it can give you and your skin," Belicia raved.

Meanwhile, apples have several benefits too including guarding the skin from the harmful effects of free radicals in the environment.
The popular fruit is said to also aid in repairing damaged skin from UV rays and air pollution.
And oranges are one of the best foods when it comes to antiaging too.
A study of 4,025 women aged 40 to 74 found vitamin C-rich foods, like oranges, reduced the risk of wrinkles by 36%.
Finally, although many believe it's a myth that carrots can help with your eyesight, there might be some truth to it, meaning it's the perfect ingredient for the skin juice.

"A diet of carrots won’t give a blind person 20/20 vision. But, the vitamins found in the vegetable can help promote overall eye health.
"Carrots contain beta-carotene, a substance that the body converts to vitamin A, an important nutrient for eye health."
After Belicia shared her mum's antiaging juice recipe on social media, viewers were stunned to learn she's actually 51.
