Eva Mendes Joins Instagram With Adorable Throwback Photo (SEE IT)

Welcome to Instagram, Eva Mendes!

The 41-year-old actress officially joined the social media photo-sharing site on Thursday - and for her first post, Mendes shared an adorable childhood photo of herself wearing a pink outfit and head scarf with brown cowboy boots.

"Taking to Instagram to keep you posted on my clothing line for @nyandcompany and CIRCA Beauty (@realcircabeauty), a cosmetics line I have coming out at Walgreens," Mendes captioned the pic. "I thought this picture might be a good way to start. 38 years later and still holding strong on the head wrap comeback. x."

In the April issue of Women's Health, the "Hitch" star opened up about her mental wellness and talked about her diet and exercise plan and getting back into shape six months after welcoming daughter Esmerelda Amada with boyfriend Ryan Gosling.

"I haven't eaten meat in about six years, because I don't agree with factory farming here," she said. "This is just what worked for me, it's important to say, but when I cut that out I immediately felt better. And also, after a year of eliminating it, my skin looked brighter and healthier overall."

To exercise, Mendes told the magazine that she lifts light weights, practices yoga and goes on hikes with her trainer.

The actress has remained fiercely private about her personal life. "I believe there is a public self and a private self," she shared. "My sisters and my good friends are experiencing that now [with] Facebook and Instagram. When they freak out about a friend of theirs posting a bad picture of them, I'm like, 'Well, imagine how I feel! Get used to it!'"
