In an interview with the British press, ahead of the launch of her swim wear designs for the clothing chain store Mango, Elizabeth Hurley says shooting bikinis is her life and it has become an "unmitigated hell”.

“I can’t think of anything worse in the world than another bikini shoot - and I’ve got two next month. It’s unbearable, and I bring it all on myself. I’ve got nobody else to blame. It’s literally torture.

"If you get a photographer you don’t know, of course, you think, ‘Oh God.’ But if you signed on for the gig, sadly, you have to go and be jolly in a skimpy white bikini."

Hurley told the Sunday Times she relies on "nice photographers and a bit of retouching" but she insists they don't touch her face.

“I like a certain amount of retouching, like anybody,” she said. “We all like to get rid of spots and shadows under our eyes. I’ve always been quite particular - I don’t like my face to be retouched.

"Often, people will want to correct one’s face, and with me, they always want to change my nose and I’m like, ‘No, no, no, I can’t look like that. I don’t mind if you want to make me a bit thinner and a bit younger, but you can’t give me a different jaw or eyebrows.’ But the vanity retouching – well, who wouldn’t?”

Hurley, who built a career out of sensuous outfits, says the best way for a woman to be sexy is to show off her back.

“I just love it. If I’m at a party and I see an amazing backless dress, it’s beautiful. Most women have pretty good backs, I think. It’s a good way to be sexy: a dress with no back.”

Pink stands for beauty, grace and goodness. And we use pink when it's a baby girl because it is sweet. Too much sweets can give you tooth ache. Elizabeth's super pink number, major headache!
