1. Beauty Starts From the Inside Out

Elle emphasizes the importance of taking care of yourself from the inside out. “My beauty routine, which is really a wellness routine disguised as a beauty routine, because I truly believe that when you're well within, it shows on your skin,” she said. She takes a “little swig” of an ION Biome to start her morning. She explains that it is important because “it supports your gut,” prepping it for other vitamins and supplements.

2. Use a Crystal Water Bottle

Elle prioritizes hydration, using a special water bottle for her H2O. “I'm gonna fill up my bottle with some water,” she explained. “I use a crystal bottle.” The concept behind the expensive water bottles is that positive energy is infused into them.

3. Lymphatic Drainage Is Important

“So for me, circulation is key,” says Elle. “Lymphatic drainage is really, really important. You've got to move those toxins out of your body, it will show on your skin, it will show in the way you feel,” she says. One way she does it? With a dry body brush.

Another way she practices lymphatic drainage is in a hot shower. “I have a steam most nights, and while I'm in the steam, while my body is sweating, I'll put oil on it and then I'll use the body Gua Sha, the same way as I use the lymphatic drainage brush.”

5. Gain Weight As You Age

Elle maintains that weight gain as your age isn’t a bad thing. “I like to be a little bit more rosy and round, because I think at my age, it's just you know, it's more appealing to look less gaunt, so I've noticed that I've put on weight as I've gotten older and that old adage,” she explained. “You have to choose between your a** and your face is kind of true [laughs] because if I'm too thin, it really shows in my face, so I keep it round and rosy and fresh.”

5. Adapt Your Routine As You Age

As you get older, you need to change up your routine, per Elle. “When I turned 50, I started to notice some new changes in my body. I was sugar addicted, sleep deprived, adrenally stressed, and it showed, you know, it showed on my skin, it showed in my body, and I was doing the same things I've been doing since I was 20, and they just weren't working anymore,” she said. “I changed my lifestyle and within a few months, people started to say to me, God, you look amazing, and what are you doing, and I realized there were so many women that must've been struggling like I was and I wanted to share it with other people, so that is the birth of WelleCo.”

Elle Macpherson is 59, and still looks every bit the supermodel as she did in her twenties when earned her nickname, “The Body.” This week the statuesque stunner shared a photo of herself walking from behind in a high cut swimsuit, flaunting her beyond fit figure and legs-for-miles.

1. She Prioritizes Wellness

Wellness is Elle’s priority year-round. “I believe in maintenance, I’m not a big binge and purge person,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “I think it’s really important to maintain wellness year-round. Not because it looks good but it actually feels good – which is really important when you’re running a business and you’ve got kids and a full life. It’s easy – I just make good choices and I enjoy the choices that I make.”

2. She Follows an Alkaline, Plant-Based Diet

Elle follows an alkaline diet, rich in veggies. “I really enjoy a plant-based diet, I love vegetables,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “If I’m really in my groove, I love a raw, plant-based diet,” she added to New Beauty. “That’s how I feel best. I eat grains, nuts, seeds, beans, vegetables, almond milk, hemp milk, chia seeds. I make my own granola in a dehydrator. Avocado, salads, juicing—you know, beautiful, whole, natural foods. As far as animal products are concerned, I’ll have a poached egg every now and then, some Parmesan cheese and goat cheese, but they’re not staples of my diet.”

3. She Gives Up Wheat and Sugar for Summer

Prior to swimsuit season, Elle makes dietary sacrifices. “Coming up for summer what I try to cut out is wheat and sugar. If you love bread and butter, that would be what I’d give up for the summer. For me it’s a ‘fine tune’ more than anything else,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.

4. She Starts the Day with Hot Water and Lemon

Elle is one of the many stars who get the day started with a lemon water elixir. “The first thing I have is hot water and lemon when I wake up, then my Super Elixir greens and a matcha tea. Sometimes I have cap-full of apple cider vinegar in water if I’m feeling like I’m inflamed. I drink three litres of water a day and my Sleep Welle Tea at night,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.

5. She Curbed Her Craving for Sugar with Supplements

Elle maintains that one of her supplements keeps her sugar cravings away. “Since I’ve been taking the Super Elixir I don’t crave sugar anymore and so when I have cheap sugar now I just don’t like the taste. Sugar is addictive but breaking that addiction only takes about three days. Do a week of taking the Super Elixir greens and then try to give up sugar, it’s usually pretty successful, she told Harper’s Bazaar.

6. She Stays Active Outdoors

Elle prefers outdoor activities to sweating away in a gym. “I do sports like water skiing, running, cycling, swimming laps, snow skiing if it’s winter, walking the dogs – I just love to be outdoors,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “If I’m lucky enough to be by the sea, I think walking in seawater is one of the best things I can do for my body. It tones the legs and the waist, it’s great for minerals, and if you have any water retention, it’s a great diuretic. I walk in about thigh-deep or knee-deep water for 40 minutes to an hour,” she added to New Beauty.

Elizabeth Hurley loved posting bathing suit photos over the summer, so when fall hit, she seemed a little disappointed.

1. She Eats Natural Foods

"I like simple, natural, easy food. I don’t really like food with a lot of chemicals or additives," Elizabeth told The Cut. "When I’m at home in the country, I always try and eat food that’s grown locally. That goes for meats and vegetables."

“I don’t do any regulated exercise, but I’m very active. On the weekends I go for long hikes with my dogs. I try and stretch every day. I do the occasional yoga or Pilates class, but mostly it’s just self-exercise at home. I might do some stomach exercises or some bottom or arm exercises, but because I trained for a dancer when I was young, I sort of know all the exercises. I find it very hard for my schedule to regularly go anywhere else. It works very well for me,” she told the Cut.

3. How She Stays Healthy Emotionally

“I find watching the news and talking to my friends keeps me healthy emotionally because you realize that there are really terrible things happening sometimes and it makes you feel grateful for what you have. If you hear that someone is sick, you appreciate your health. If you hear something bad happened to someone, you’re glad it didn’t happen to you or your loved ones. There are many ways to appreciate what you’ve got,” she told the Cut.

"I haven’t eaten processed food for 100 years," the star told U.K.’s Sunday Times. "I don’t eat sweets. I drink little alcohol. I don’t smoke but I deeply regret that I once did. I have learned to eat lighter and not so late." She added: "I think one of the most transformative things that I’ve done is making 50 percent of what I eat vegetable matter," Hurley continued. "If you have a slice of toast for breakfast, have an apple too. Counteract everything with vegetables,” according to Fox News.

5. She Has Her Own Swimsuit Line

Elizabeth Hurley Beach was launched in 2005. "I decided to venture into beachwear not only because I’ve always been obsessed with vacation clothes, but also because it’s an area where women, regardless of shape or size, can either look amazing or really get it wrong. I wanted to develop resort collections, which make women feel fabulous at any age," she announced on the company’s site.

1. She Sought Help From A Dermatologist

Macpherson shared her skincare secrets with Get The Gloss. She says that she sought help from a dermatologist. “In 2014, I was burned out, irritable and exhausted. I first visited nutritionist Dr. Simone Laubscher PhD’s London clinic and I remember telling her about my skin being particularly dry, dull and prone to rashes and hives. She prescribed me 30 days of her anti-inflammatory nutritional greens powder. After just a few weeks, I was feeling better, lighter and brighter. The quality of my skin improved noticeably and people’s comments confirmed it.”

2. She Eats An Anti-Inflammatory Diet

Macpherson makes sure to eat a healthy diet. “At the same time, I’ve learned that the best facial is what you put inside your body, which is why I preference an anti-inflammatory approach to diet and in turn, skincare,” she told Get The Gloss. “It improves skin texture and appearance, as Dr Barbara Sturm, a brilliant doctor and master of skin care who I have known for over 15 years, often shares. This means I eat organic, whole foods and stick to plant-based meals. If my skin needs a boost for an upcoming shoot or event, I’ll start juicing four times daily using my friend Dr Sara Siso’s protocol — lots of turmeric, ginger, green leafy vegetables, cucumber — and my super greens. I’ll also add our collagen powder to support my skin specifically.”

3. She Stays Hydrated

Macpherson tells Get The Gloss that she drinks a lot of water. “Another skin essential for me is hydration. I drink three litres of water every day and start each morning with warm water, lemon and ginger, and two capsules of The Skin Elixir with water. I leave the jar of skin caps next to my toothbrush to remind me to take them. I take two teaspoons of The Super Elixir™️ greens in water in the morning too.”

4. She Does Outdoor Activities

One thing Macpherson does to stay in shape is outdoor activities. She tells Get The Gloss that this also helps her skin. “We are an active family, so connection to nature and the fresh air tends to have a positive effect on our skin in terms of tone, colour and texture. Nothing beats a rosy cheek from being outdoors with my boys; hiking, skiing, biking or swimming.”

5. She Limits Sugar

Macpherson shared some of her wellness secrets with Harper’s Bazaar. She says that she has figured out a way to limit her sugar intake. “Since I’ve been taking the Super Elixir I don’t crave sugar anymore and so when I have cheap sugar now I just don’t like the taste.

It’s a bit different – but I’m never hungry and I eat quite a lot. Today I had a super bowl with quinoa, beets, goats cheese, sweet potato and rocket with olive oil and it was fabulous, I felt completely nourished.
