At the age of 50 years old, Dawn Zulueta’s beauty remains timeless. But her still-youthful look does not exempt the actress from posting equally beautiful throwback photos, and post she does — with a tinge of classic Filipino “hugot.”

Around 27 years old in 1996, Zulueta donned a yellow, long-sleeved top, tucked in a short black skirt, as seen on her Instagram post earlier today, Dec. 5.

Showing off slender legs and knees, the actress-model said, “1996: Gusto kong balikan yung mga araw na tuhod lang ang nasusugatan, hindi puso (I want to go back to the days when only knees were hurt, not hearts).”

In what appears to be a professional shoot when she was around 18 years old, Zulueta looked fierce with her curly hair flowing down to her shoulders, as seen in a black and white photo posted on Instagram on Nov. 21.

“1987: Nag kulang ako sa tulog pero ni minsan hindi ako nag kulang sa iyo (I may lack sleep, but I never lacked in anything for you),” Zulueta said.

Zulueta meanwhile warned daring men to not easily fall in love with her, as the then-18-year-old treated her fans with her beaming smile in a set of black and white photos, as posted on her Instagram on Nov. 7.

“1987: Kilig lang. Walang attachments (You can only get excited, no attachments),” she jested.

Zulueta went even further back and posted the ultimate throwback: a 9 to 10-year-old Zulueta, sporting a bowl cut while riding a horse, with knee-high socks exposed, in true 1970s fashion.

“1979: Ang hirap i-explain. Judge me na lang (It is hard to explain. Just judge me),” she said on an Instagram post, Nov. 29.
