Find out the five little look-good strategies that Candice Swanepoel—our March cover star—swears by when she’s about to walk the runway in lingerie before billions…
1. Get Low: Whenever I think about the show coming up, I’m like, “Damnit, let me do squats right now.” So, when I’m cooking or just standing around, I do random outbursts of exercise.
2. Hydrate: I like to put olive oil in my hair to moisturize it. And then, of course, I wash it out, or I’d smell like the kitchen.
3. Eat More Fruit: If my skin is not great, I’ll eat a lot of blueberries and acai berries. They’re full of antioxidants.
4. Hide Your Shakers: A couple of days before a show, I won’t eat too much salt, since it can cause bloating. Even if I have sushi, I won’t drown it in soy sauce.
5. Tap Your Alter Ego: In my personal time, I’m pretty private and not that confident. But when I’m working, I’ve learned the pictures look better when I convince myself in my mind that I’m amazing. It’s a mental game. Sometimes, you just have to forget your insecurities and just pretend.
