Claudia Schiffer says being happy is the key to looking good.
The supermodel - who will turn 40 next year - admits she takes care over her appearance but believes the main reason she still looks great is because she puts her happiness first.
The mother-of-two said: "It is all common sense. I try to drink lots of water. And when it comes to having beauty treatments I try to choose things that make me feel better about myself. Doing things for yourself is important when you're a busy mother. So whether I have a massage or reflexology or along, hot bath, it's about taking time to look after yourself and be happy. That for me is the secret."
Claudia - who is married to film producer Matthew Vaughn - also said she feels better now she is approaching 40, than she did in her 20s.
She told Britain's Hello! magazine: "My friends are my age and we all look the same so we don't think, 'Ooh I am getting older.' I feel very confident in myself and I feel better at my age today than I did when I was 20 or 30.
So if someone said they had a magic wand and could make me 20 again I wouldn't want it. I feel much, much better about myself today and I'm in much better shape and healthier today than ever before."
