Elle Macpherson is Happy to Age

Elle Macpherson isn't worried about turning 50.

The 48-year-old supermodel - who was once nicknamed "The Body" - is happy to embrace getting older as she doesn't think being younger always means being more beautiful.

"I don't believe that youth equals beauty or beauty equals youth. How I feel, how well I am is more important to me. It doesn't bother me becoming 50 at all, the alternative is death, so that is not an option. I rather like the idea of flowing on with life. I have had amazing life experiences and hopefully another 50 years of experiences ahead of me."

Elle - who has two children, Flynn, 14, and nine-year-old Cy, nine, with former partner Arpad Busson - recently renewed her contract with cosmetics brand Revlon and says it makes her feel the attitude of brands toward older people is changing: "That tells me this is not an ageist society, and Revlon is a modern company."

Cindy Crawford to become the face of SPAR Beauty Kiss

Cindy Crawford has become the face of a budget beauty brand. The supermodel, who has previously worked cosmetics giants Revlon and Maybelline, signed up to promote shop chain SPAR’s Beauty Kiss toiletry range and has posed in a series of raunchy shots. The 43-year-old beauty looks sensational in the pictures, wearing a cutaway black swimsuit.

Cindy has previously said thinks she looks “pretty good” naked for a mother-of-two and is happy with the way her body has aged. She said: “I think I look pretty good for 43, but I don’t look the way I did when I was 23.” Cindy, who raises nine-year-old son Presley Walker and daughter Kaia Jordan, seven, with her husband of 10 years Rande Gerber, said she pays most attention to her hands and chest because they are the areas most affected by aging. She explained: “In Los Angeles, there are 65-year-old women walking around in Juicy sweatpants, and from the back you’d think they were 20. But when you see their hands or their neck, you know.”
