I absolutely adore Kristin Davis’ character Charlotte in the hit TV series (and now film version) “Sex & the City”. Charlotte’s demure fashion sense, conservative outlook and charming personality all attracted me to her character.

Apparently, the 43-year old actress is involved in Oxfam International, an organization working against poverty and injustice. In the Health.com Blog article, she shared what she has seen while visiting Mozambique, South Africa and Uganda.

When asked which women inspired her the most, Kristin replied:

Wow, so many, My mom, Angelina (Jolie), Hillary Clinton,Maya Angelou, Helen Mirren.

Interestingly enough, Kristin admits to being a recovering alcoholic. She went sober during her mid-20’s, but the actress said that she has been sober during the entire time that was in the limelight.

For a woman who is in her early 40’s, Kristin looks like she’s in her early 30’s. Here’s a bit of her beauty secret:

My mom looks great for her age, so I think genetics has a lot to do with it. Also, I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, and I love my Ahava sunscreen.
