Charmaine Sheh Wears Same Miss Hongkong Tiara After 25 Years, Looks Even Better Now Than When She Came In Third

Can you believe it’s been 25 years since former TVB actress Charmaine Sheh first donned her Miss Hongkong pageant tiara?

One could say she looks even better now than she did when she first wore it as a 22-year-old.

Hard as it may be to imagine, Charmaine did not win but came in third in the 1997 beauty pageant (both the title winner and first runner-up are not in showbiz).

Recently the 47-year-old actress posted a video of her putting on the exact Miss HK tiara that she won more than two decades ago, and netizens simply can’t get over how she hasn’t aged a single bit.

In her video, Charmaine was seen dusting her Miss Hongkong crown from 25 years ago.

She gracefully put it on and exclaimed: “I haven’t worn it for a long time! Does it look good?” before going on to re-enact her introduction speech during the pageant.

“I am contestant No. 11, Charmaine Sheh; I believe that tomorrow will be a better day,” she recalled.

The video also included a throwback clip from her pageant days for reference.

As this year marks the 25th anniversary of Hongkong’s return to China, Charmaine left a message saying: “Whether it is 1997 or 2022, I always believe that Hong Kong’s tomorrow will be better!”

Since then, netizens have been singing praises of the actress, complimenting that she doesn't seem to have aged a day.

“Elegant as always, she’s indeed a Miss Hongkong,” commented one netizen.

So, what are her secrets to ageless beauty?

To Charmaine, hydration is key.

According to an interview with Elle Magazine Taiwan, the actress revealed that she drinks a large amount of water every day, and she particularly enjoys drinking carrot or apple juice.

Charmaine also uses beauty masks twice a day to make sure that her skin is always moisturized.

The actress avers that drinking water doesn’t only help with detox and weight loss, it also prevents dry mouth and bad breath, dry skin or even Urethritis and Cystitis.

She’s apparently really diligent when it comes to removing her make-up too.

Charmaine once shared on Chinese variety show Beauty Miss that when she has to put on thick make-up for filming, she would use the make-up remover four times before washing her face again to ensure that there’s no residue.

The actress also said that she has a separate refrigerator to keep her beauty products as well as a spoon and thin potato slices.

In case you’re wondering, nope, the potato slices are not for snacking.

According to Charmaine, the chilled spoon and potato slices are her handy tools to help get rid of water retention and dark eye circles.

Yeap, so now you know her secrets. Time to hydrate, people!
