TikTok star's mum, 90, reveals simple secrets to looking decades younger than her age

A 90-year-old woman has shared her simple regime that has kept her looking decades younger.

Fitness TikToker Dalyce Barnett Radtke asked her elderly mum how she stays so healthy and youthful at 90-years-old in a Q&A posted on the video-sharing app. Her mum explains how she works out every day and keeps her skin looking youthful with one straightforward beauty routine.

Dalyce's followers were left stunned after the mum said she uses "nothing other than bar soap and water cleanser and face lotion". In the clip, Dalyce asks her slender mum - who TikTok user @tigerlilycat said has "impeccable posture" - what her "secret" is. She tells her daughter she, in fact, "doesn't have a secret" and that she got "good genetics".

Although, she confesses her long life must be due in part to her active lifestyle because her mum died aged 82.

The healthy mum, who said she took out her first gym membership when she was in her sixties, said: "Something inside me lets me know that I feel better when I move around. I didn't go to the gym for years and years and years.”

And her workouts will also leave people surprised, as the 90-year-old works out for "at least an hour and a half, maybe a little more". Her gym routine consists of "circuit, then floor exercises on a ball, stretching, a little bit of weights, cardio on the treadmill".

Many TikTok users flocked to the comments section to praise the woman with many saying they were blown away. @ljg987 commented "she was the most beautifully aged women [sic]" they had ever seen.

Another user @addiesandoodsmama said: Looking better than me at 37". Meanwhile, many people were in disbelief that the woman was 90-years-old. "Wait she's 90?! Wow!" said @epidemiologistkat. @therunningjoslynr questioned: "This woman right here is 90?!"
