She Goes Home When She's Busy
Hill has a busy schedule, which can be difficult to deal with. Whenever she gets stressed, she decides to go back home and spend time with her family. "Fashion month is exhausting, and that's probably when you become the most unlike yourself," she says to Byrdie. "It's always really refreshing to go home and see your friends and know that your life's not that hard and it's all going to be fine."
She's Confident In Herself
Hill is a model, and she has a lot of confidence in herself. However, that wasn't always the case. She revealed that she used to struggle with her self-esteem, and that she didn't feel confident until she started modeling. "I used to hate my body, and I thought I was really ugly," she revealed to Byrdie. "I was so not confident, and becoming a model—and especially a VS girl—has changed my perspective on who I am. It's kind of given me a new light: You're beautiful no matter what you look like, no matter what body type you have. I always envied curvy women because I wasn't that. The grass is always greener, and you'll always have to deal with that. But being a model has helped me embrace my body type. It's hard on some girls, but it actually helped me a lot."
She Uses A Trainer
Hill tells Byrdie that she likes to use a trainer to help with her wellness. "I have to use a trainer because I cheat in classes," she admits. "I'm a natural-born cheater. I cheat on everything—I cheated on tests (don't tell my teachers), I cheat workouts, I eat whatever I want! So I just needed someone to watch me and make sure I'm doing it correctly."
She Does Pilates-esque Exercises
Hill tells Byrdie that a lot of her workouts are about toning her body. She says that she does a lot of slow, Pilates-esque movements to stay in shape. "We do a lot of slow, muscle-targeting movements with gliding discs and two-pound weights. Almost kind of floor Pilates in a way because we get on the floor, and she puts resistance bands around my ankles and things like that. It's so hard—it doesn't sound hard, and it doesn't look hard, but I could back squat, like, 85 pounds, and I quiver when I do this. I'm like, Oh my God, I can't stand up anymore because I'm so sore! It's amazing."
She Takes Care Of Her Skin
Hill has flawless skin, and she revealed some of her favorite products to Harper's Bazaar. "After washing my face with a cleanser, I use the Energie de Vie toner and follow with the Milky Lotion in the morning. At night, I'll use the sleeping mask from the range instead. Makeup-wise, I really just keep to my three essentials: mascara, concealer and lip balm, and I'm ready to head out."
