THIS IS WHAT 64 LOOKS LIKE

- Interview by FLORENCE SCORDOULIS

EilEEn nahum lives in london and is single, with two grown-up children, Roy, 37, and lara, 35. She is a profession­al matchmaker at aspreyintr­oductions.com

MIDLIFE MATCHMAKIN­G

I’VE been single, on and off, for some time, but I love the freedom and independen­ce of it. I still enjoy dating: the key is to relax and have fun. Don’t just stick to online dating, go out and meet new people. I know what I’m looking for, but am also open to different ages and I’m realistic about my expectatio­ns. My advice to my younger self would be not to worry so much.

SLEEK AND SHINY HAIR

MY HAIR is coloured at a salon, which can leave it feeling frazzled. To keep it healthy, I like to have an Olaplex deep conditioni­ng treatment at the same time (£20). Then, in between visits, I use Knight & Wilson PurePlex Revolution­ary Hair Repair System (£8.65, superdrug.

com) once a week. My hair is stronger, shinier and softer afterwards.

THREE STEPS TO GLOW

MY DAUGHTER introduced me to an amazing primer called Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser (£5.59, boots.

com). It helps to even out imperfecti­ons and blur fine lines, and I don’t need to use any foundation. When I do, I use No 7 Lift & Luminate Triple Action Serum Foundation (£18), which is very light. I often mix it with the day cream from the same range (£26, both boots.com), so it’s not too cloying and heavy.

FITNESS CHALLENGE

THIS summer, I moved to London from Ascot and felt like shaking up my fitness regimen: a new move, a new me! I now see a personal trainer for one hour a week and I do four gym sessions on my own. I’ve dropped a dress size and really firmed up my arms, stomach and legs. It’s been a real confidence boost.

LANGUAGE LEARNING

IT’S important to keep the mind strong as you get older. I speak four languages — Italian, French, English and Hebrew — and I’m currently learning Spanish. I use a free app called Duolingo whenever I have a free moment during the day. I’m planning to spend Christmas in Spain — it’s helpful to have a travel incentive!
