Bikini bombshell Elizabeth Hurley shares her 'secret' for the perfect swimsuit selfie

Yahoo15-07-2025
Elizabeth Hurley is sharing some of her model magic with the world.
The actress-model, who's become known for her glamorous bikini-clad portraits on social media, opened up about her process for taking the skin-baring photos in a July 13 Instagram post.
True to form, the post featured a picture-perfect shot of Hurley, 60, posing in a light brown bikini as a golden beam of sunlight illuminated her figure. "The secret to flattering bikini pics? BAN overhead sunlight 🤣," Hurley wrote.
"When shooting bikinis, sunrise or sunset are your best friends 😉," she continued. "We shot this at 7am… By 8am, I was lounging around in one of my equally flattering @elizabethhurleybeach kaftans, feeling glamorous AND shielded from the lethal sun ♥️."

Hurley, known for her roles in the Austin Powers franchise, "Bedazzled" and "The Royals," is no stranger to the modeling world. In 1995, the actress became a spokesmodel for cosmetics titan Estée Lauder, which led to a decades-long relationship with the New York City label.
"I was far from an ingénue, having had my first modeling job at 29," Hurley reflected during a 2008 luncheon, per The Daily Front Row. She added that Evelyn Lauder, then-senior corporate vice president of Estée Lauder, was "like my second mom."

Hurley has also appeared in several advertising and fashion campaigns for brands such as Jordache, Got Milk?, Monsoon, and Lancel. Additionally, she's landed the cover of British Vogue three times.
In an October 2020 interview with People magazine, Hurley reflected on her "out-of-the-blue" introduction to the modeling industry with her Estée Lauder gig. "I acted for years before I got my first modeling job," she told the outlet. "I was an actress, not really a model."
But the modeling gene runs in the family. Hurley's son, Damian Hurley, whom she shares with late businessman Steve Bing, has modeled for makeup brand Pat McGrath Labs and was previously signed to top agency IMG Models.

Fresh of their appointment asNOT A HOTELcreative advisors,Pharrell WilliamsandNIGOhave announced plans for JAPA VALLEY TOKYO, the latest cultural complex by the Japanese hospitality group, set to open in 2027. JAPA VALLEY TOKYO reimagines the splendor and serenity of California's wine country through a distinctly Japanese lens, swapping Napa Valley wine for craft sake brews. Staged in the upcoming Yurakucho Park, the project describes itself as a 'visionary art, retail and hospitality precinct' with a rotating lineup of fashion, food and design pop-ups. Marking a first for NOT A HOTEL, JAPA VALLEY TOKYO breaks from the brand's usual getaway model to introduce a city-centered creative playground in the heart of Tokyo, with the hopes to 'weave art into the fabric of daily life.' Concept renderings tease a maze of arched, timber-clad structures, complete with lush roofing and floor-to-ceiling windows for sunny interiors. At the center of the lies a reclining COMPANION sculpture byKAWS, anchoring the hectare-sized site with a sense of wonder and play. The New York-based artist was also tapped to curate artworks for NIGO's cliffside NOT A HOTELhomelast year. JAPA VALLEY TOKYO is slated to open for a limited time in 2027.

Supermodel Paulina Porizkova Shares Candid Selfie in Bra and Underwear: ‘This Is 60'

Porizkova compared a snap of herself in 'pretty light' that was taken on vacation to a bathroom mirror selfie in an empowering Instagram postNEED TO KNOW Paulina Porizkova shared two photos of herself without makeup or filters in an empowering Instagram post on Monday, July 28 She penned a lengthy caption about self-acceptance and learning lessons throughout the years 'The beauty of 60 is that now I understand the importance is IN the lesson, not passing the exam,' the supermodel wrotePaulina Porizkova is embracing her natural beauty! On Monday, July 28, the supermodel, 60, shared two photos of herself in an empowering Instagram post that accompanied her thoughts on aging gracefully. In the first snap, she appeared fresh-faced in a white bikini while posing on a beach bed, while the second image showed her in a dimly lit bathroom. 'This is me. Vacation, pretty light, posing for a shot,' she wrote in the caption of the post, referring to the first photo. Speaking about the second snap, she added, 'This is also me. Home, not great light, not posing. This is 60.' Porizkova revealed that throughout the years, she hasn't followed a perfect regimen but has learned many lessons. 'This is 60 years of sometimes healthy eating, sometimes not,' she continued in the caption of the post. '60 years of sometimes working out, sometimes not. 60 years of doing the right things followed by doing the wrong things and over again and again." 'It's 60 years of learning of what works and what doesn't,' Porizkova said. 'And just as I think I've figured it out, everything changes and I have to start again." 'The beauty of 60 is that now I understand the importance is IN the lesson, not passing the exam,' she concluded. Porizkova added several hashtags to the post that confirmed she wasn't wearing makeup in the photos and that they were both posted without a filter.

Since reaching the milestone age in April, the Swedish Estee Lauder spokesperson has repeatedly spoken candidly about her thoughts on aging. 'We're so terrified of wrinkles because I suppose wrinkles make us no longer relevant, no longer sexy, no longer desirable, and as women, that has been sort of our calling card — it's tagged with us for such a long time,' she said on the TODAY show in January. 'And I keep looking at wrinkles — mine, yours, any woman that I see — and I think, 'It's your map of life,'' she continued. 'I see how you are as a person. Why would you want to erase it?' Despite having helped to sell a 'vision of beauty inextricably linked to youth' in her early career, Porizkova has revealed another upside to aging. 'The best part is you finally turn into the person that you were meant to be all along. And perhaps that's not always a happy finding,' she told Harper's Bazaar in April. 'But I think if you try to live your life with an understanding that other people matter, that connections matter, and that love matters, then you won't be disappointed with who that person is that you truly are,' Porizkova added. Speaking exclusively to PEOPLE back in 2023, she explained her reason for putting her unfiltered self out there. "As soon as you start filtering yourself or auto-tuning your photos and stuff, well then, it's not really all that authentic anymore," she said. 'I feel a responsibility to put myself out there as I am." Read the original article on People
