We all have that friend who, no matter how long has passed, seems never to look any older. “Good for them,” you might say, but as you look at your saggy old face in the mirror you can’t help but feel a tinge of jealousy.

While this isn’t very remarkable in of itself, it is her seemingly never-ending youth that is notable, as her infectious smile and sparkling eyes appear completely unchanged throughout the entire decade. What is her secret? Has she discovered the fountain of youth, the one that Keanu Reeves has been drinking from?
