Victoria Beckham turns 50 today and the ageless star doesn’t step out of the house unless she’s looking her best and isn’t shy about sharing her beauty secrets.
The former Spice Girl always shares glimpses into her life on Instagram and her gym and skincare routines are no different. Her face always looks flawless thanks to her diet and daily routine – but there are other factors at play that keep Victoria looking and feeling fantastic.
The fashion designer often shows off her range of skincare products for Victoria Beckham Beauty – even if fans are left with raised eyebrows over the price tags. The mum-of-four once revealed her got-to products add up to a whopping £320 – leaving fans scratching their heads. But it’s not all about expensive items…

Strict skincare
Earlier this year, she shared a video of herself applying moisturizer from her own skincare brand and later posted a picture from her gruelling workout. Posh wore a black sports bra and black leggings as she explained to fans how she tries to work out five times a week. She said: “MY SKIN HEALTH ROUTINE! Whilst my @VictoriaBeckhamBeauty Priming Moisturiser in Golden helps with that instant golden glow.
“I can see the difference in my skin texture and radiance from taking care of myself, with regular exercise and other wellness tricks I’ve picked up along the way from experts and friends.”
Of course, it helps when you have your own skincare range and your fingertips!
Running every day
Posh says a powerful run every single day can keep the years away – and says she then goes through a gruelling PT session.
“I go for a three-mile run every morning and I work out for an hour with a PT, which gives me just enough time to get to the kitchen to puree Romeo’s avocados,” she told Dutch Vogue in June.
Before this, she told ELLE magazine that she loved working out at the start of her day, explaining: “Normally, I wake up, do half my work-out – an hour – wake the kids up, give them breakfast, take them to school, come back, do another hour, quickly shower and then come into work.”
While in the past she has discussed her strict low-carb diet, telling American ELLE previously: “I eat lots of fish, lots of vegetables and a lot of fruit. I work out every day, six or seven days [a week].”
Smoothies and shots
It’s not all about the exercise. After her workout, she enjoys a protein smoothie with fresh fruits and nuts. Then she tells fans she also takes a health shot made of fresh ginger, lemon, black pepper and turmeric.
Fatty foods!
According to sources a few years ago, VB hoped to pile on a few pounds in order to chase off the ageing process. The star is said to have consulted a doctor to ascertain the best anti-aging treatments.
“Victoria’s visited a surgeon in LA and was told the best way to help slow down ageing is ‘fat – eat more and drink water’,” a source close to the star told Woman magazine. The order to pile on some pounds is said to have delighted retired sportsman husband David.
“David has tried tirelessly to get Victoria to relax her strict eating habits, so he is delighted at her change of heart,” the source added.
