As she enters a new chapter, what are the secrets to her flawless appearance and jaw-dropping figure? Here, the Daily Mail finds out.

More than a decade ago, Kim told the Daily Mail that she wanted to 'embrace aging.'

But now she has admitted that she is all about 'battling aging in every way I can,' with the help of Botox and fillers.

However, going under the needle, isn't entirely in vain for the Emmy-nominated star.

She told The Sunday Times: 'It's not just a vanity thing. I play a certain kind of woman who looks a certain kind of way. And professionally I am looking after myself.'

The star admitted thanks to her financial situation, she can basically do whatever she wants to her face and body.

Still, she warns that the end goal is to continue looking like the Kim Cattrall we all know.

The actress added that she wants to 'look like the best version' of herself and encourages anyone thinking of cosmetic surgery to find the 'right surgeon.'

She added: 'It can't be emphasized enough. You want to look like you!'

Last year, Kim gave a peek inside her skincare routine as she was the beauty muse for Lancôme's Rénergie Triple Serum Retinol.

She uses it for a 'boost of love and attention,' citing vitamin C, peptides and pure retinol as the hero ingredients.

'Look we all know this is an ad, but this will fade your wrinkles — not your smile,' she said in a Mother's Day-themed ad for the product.

As for makeup, her approach has changed over the years.

She now uses less in her day-to-day life, focusing on using a good sunscreen and moisturizer daily.

'As I get older, less really is a lot more. I don't want to start wearing a lot of makeup,' she told People.

'I want to feel my skin being able to breathe and protect it and support it.'

When it comes to maintaining her incredible figure, Kim likes to keep very active.

She told Woman and Home: 'I try to do cardio three or four times a week.

'And I've had injuries in the past so I also do 'physio yoga' - a combination of physio and yoga so I'm constantly trying to rehabilitate my body.

'The older I get, the less jarring I want my exercise to be and I find that a long walk is equally as helpful and satisfying as a three-mile jog.'

Kim doesn't want to injure her body by running too much, so the walks help her get the cardio exercise that she needs. She also enjoys swimming.

The actress credits 'physio yoga' for helping to reduce and manage her chronic knee pain and injuries from stage rehearsals and intense filming.

As for food, the actress follows the anti-inflammatory Perricone Diet to maintain her youthful glow.

She likes to eat almost anything, especially pasta with garlic, dry herbs, stewing meat, and vegetables.

She told Woman and Home: 'I have a big appetite and I like to eat, and staying on top of that is about knowing myself and saying, 'I can eat that today, but tomorrow I'm not going to'.

'And I'm always aware from gaining and losing weight for parts that the time in the gym trying to lose extra weight is really hard work! I always have that in my mind.'

Ahead of her 70th birthday, the actress opened up about the biggest lesson she learned in her 60s.

She told New Beauty: 'Patience and looking back on what I feel I've accomplished, and enjoying that success and surrounding myself with people that want the best for me personally and professionally.

'That sounds like, 'well, why wouldn't you, of course,' but sometimes that's taken for granted, and I don't think we should take our girlfriends or our mentors for granted because they've been there, and that knowledge, you can't find in a doctor's office.'
