Raquel Welch

Raquel Welch was originally named Jo Raquel Tejada. She was born in Chicago in 1940 and grew up in California. Her father is an aeronautical engineer of Spanish descent, and her mother is of British descent. Raquel Welch began to study ballet at a young age, and she won the beauty contest at the age of 14.

Now Raquel Welch is almost 80 years old. She was a beauty symbol in the ’60s and ’70s and has established herself as a pioneer of brunette beauty in Hollywood. She was also included in Men’s Health Magazine’s “Hottest Women of All Time” list. A beauty guru herself, she had business investments in several beauty lines including a wig collection. Her secret to her ageless beauty includes a low-carb, gluten-free diet, yoga exercises, and using udder cream on her face. She remains a fan of the cream since it’s believed to keep the skin smooth and supple.
