The 50-year-old stood with her hands pushing her hair back as she looked into the camera, her skin looking flawless as the sun set behind her. She opted for her usual bold eye makeup and a neutral look. For the glowy summer look, she paired the makeup with a pink and burgundy dress with long sleeves, a pendant necklace and some hoop earrings.
