“Of course there’s been times growing up that I felt insecure about something physically,” reveals Cabello, who will make her film debut as Cinderella in an upcoming version of the fairy tale. “But I’ve always known someone’s personality is the most important and most attractive or unattractive quality.”

“I feel very comfortable with the fact that my body will fluctuate and change and that’s important too,” she tells PEOPLE. “I’m not trying to maintain a certain image of any kind. This is what the human experience is like. I’m in other countries, I’m going to eat those foods. I’m not going to stop doing that because I’m worried.”

Julia Roberts

A few things are different now for Roberts, who has been named People’s Most Beautiful a record five times. “I look forward to work forcing me into change,” she says. “It’s liberating. I recently cut my hair, and it’s been so great to remember how fun shorter hair is.” But the essential Julia (who names Rosebud Salve as her fave beauty product) has remained the same. As a young girl, “I was a happy, nerdy little kid," she says. So what kind of “old lady” will she be? “Happy,” she adds. “And hopefully nerdy.”

Her Hulu series Shrill celebrates size inclusivity, and Bryant enjoys hosting the party. "Having someone who wouldn't normally be cast as a lead, you're saying something about who has value," she says. "We're letting people know that there's something worthy in every type of person's story."

As a kid,“I was most likely to be found in mismatched dress-up clothes, with wild fuzzy hair and no shoes,” Fanning says. Now the Teen Spirit star uses grape-seed oil for makeup removal and aims to drink 64 oz. of water a day. “I’ve been trying to do better!”

Oscar-nominated for The Wife, the gorgeous star has perfected her look, from preferring no makeup to “letting my white/silver [hair] grow in,” she says. “Mainly because I was spending too much time touching up roots.” Now she’s empowered “because I am finally comfortable in my own skin,” adds Close. “I own my choices in life — good and bad. I trust my instincts and sense of right and wrong. And I have a strong support system.”

Jennifer Aniston

The actress, who recently celebrated her fifth decade with a bevy of A-list pals, has learned a thing or two about beauty along the way. “There were the years where I was pounding makeup on like it was going out of style,” said Aniston, who will next be seen in Netflix’s Murder Mystery. “To me it’s not about hair and makeup as much as how I’m feeling inside.”

After winning a third Emmy in September, the actress then won the Oscar for her performance in If Beale Street Could Talk. On her own she steers clear of too much glam. “I don’t really wear makeup when I’m not working,” King says. “My daily regimen is Dove soap and Kiehl’s lotion.”

Coming off one of the most prolific and acclaimed years of her career, including a box office blockbuster in Aquaman and a Best Actress Emmy and Golden Globe in 2017 for HBO’s Big Little Lies (the second season premieres in June), the Oscar winner says she feels “an enormous amount of gratitude.” More than any accolade, Kidman is grateful for the life she’s built with husband Keith Urban and their daughters Sunday, 10, and Faith, 8. As for the best thing that anyone has ever done for her, she says simply: “Keith Urban married me!”
