SHE’S almost 60 but Elle Macpherson credits her “flawless” look to her 50s. 

According to the ex-supermodel, rocking your fabulous 50s may require you to ditch some of your favourite things… including coffee. 

Elle took to her Instagram stories last week to share a snippet from an old interview about how she became “flawless” over the last decade. 

“When I turned 50, I just wasn’t feeling very well and I wasn’t looking very well,” the mum-of-two admitted. 

“I noticed my skin, hair, and weight … I was just not feeling inspired.

“I had sugar cravings and poor digestion.”

Thanks to her celeb status, Elle had access to a dietitian who put her on a “green powder which changed her life”. 

However, there were much simpler changes she made.

The Aussie model ditched coffee, started prioritising sleep and ate more fruit and veg. 

Coffee is a natural stimulant which affects the skin through causing heightened stress levels and interfering with sleep.

Research by Lenstore, a company that specialises in eye health, found that coffee can stay in the body's system for up to nine hours.

This can contribute or lead to insomnia – and lack of sleep is a sure-fire way to age your skin. 

For supermodel Elle, beauty and wellness “merge into one” – meaning she takes care of what’s on the inside for it to show on the outfit. 

Her daily wellness protocol also helped her relish in her fabulous 50s.

“I take care of my mind, body and spirit every day with breath practice and meditation,” Elle told Body+Soul in a previous interview. 

“My daily practice includes meditating in the morning for around 25 minutes — either guided, or in silence.

“I try to live my life in a perpetual flow of meditative connection rather than just at specified times.”
