Salma Hayek ‘Allure’ Topless Poses Flaunt Fabulous Figure At 48: Credits Love, Juicing & Yoga [Video]

Salma Hayek just flaunted her figure topless for Allure, and appeared absolutely alluring. The actress, however, confessed that she was nervous. But gathering up her courage at 48, Salma went almost nude, reported People.

“I got to work with the wonderful Patrick Demarchelier, and he always tries to do the minimum clothes possible,” shared Salma. “I kept my pants on though.”

And Hayek was pleased with the results, which gave her chance to display her generous cleavage.

“[It] looked very nice [and] doesn’t look vulgar,” said Salma of her topless Allure photo shoot.

So what’s her secret – Botox or surgery? Neither, said Salma.

“When I was young, they tried to sell me on the idea [of Botox]: ‘If you do it now, then you won’t get the wrinkles,’ ” revealed Hayek. “And thank God I didn’t do that. I think we change, and that’s part of the beauty of being a woman,” mused the actress. “We get to be our own canvas every day when you wake up.”

Instead, Hayek credits her marriage for her self-confidence, reported E! News.

“I wish I knew [when I was younger] that I was going to fall crazy in love with the perfect man,” said Salma of her billionaire husband.

“I was so worried, and I dated some people I shouldn’t have dated. You get desperate, and you start seeing wonderful things in, like, the wrong guys. I wish I could say to myself, ‘Hey, chill out. You’re going to get a great husband that’s going to adore you.’ I would have saved myself a lot of personal drama.”

Hayek arranges her schedule so that she, her hubby, and her daughter are never separated.

“We don’t separate for long periods of time. Never,” she said firmly.

To maintain that fit and fab figure at 48, Salma relies on yoga, as the Inquisitr reported. In addition, she uses her muscles to keep them activated.

“Some people have the discipline to exercise in the morning, and I didn’t develop that. I don’t have time to exercise. I am working. I’ve had some 20-hour days,” admitted Salma. “I work with a woman in London who taught me how to hold my body in a way where the muscles are activated all day long. So even when you brush your teeth, you’re working the muscles.”

The actress also credits juicing for her body, and is sharing the benefits with her daughter, reported People.

Juice Generation founder Eric Helms worked with Salma in founding the Cooler Cleanse juice delivery service. One of Hayek’s favorites?

“Carrots and apples give you a super boost of vitamin A and antioxidants. My daughter loves this juice!” exclaimed Hayek.
