   Kate Moss snapped on vacation in St. Tropez – the photo that told her her lifestyle needed an overhaul

With her perfect bone structure and a waif-like body that literally set a new standard for the modeling industry, Kate Moss is often hailed as the most successful supermodel in the world, even at 35, which, as we know, occasionally equals “old” in model years. However, recent pictures snapped while she was on vacation in St. Tropez, showing the extent of the damage done to her skin by her unhealthy lifestyle, have prompted Moss to opt for a radical change, the Daily Mail informs.

Kate Moss is a heavy smoker and drinker – as a matter fact, the media knows that there are few things she likes in life more than partying. Understandably, the many sleepless nights, the nicotine addiction and the amounts of alcohol ingested on a regular basis have eventually taken a toll on Moss’ complexion, as the pictures taken earlier this month have revealed. After seeing them in the media and on the Internet, the model has decided to change her habits and knock as much as ten years off her face.

“Kate didn’t like seeing pictures of the state of her skin while she was on holiday. She knows it’s down to her lifestyle, so she is deciding to try a particular health plan to help regain a fresh look.” an unnamed source tells the Mail. In cutting down on her smoking and her drinking, as well as by beginning to eat healthy again and drink more water, Moss hopes to rid herself of the wrinkles, blemishes and the spotty skin the strong holiday sun made so painfully obvious in the aforementioned pictures, the source says.

With the help of her current boyfriend, Jamie Hince, Moss has already taken the first steps in the right direction, by promising him she would smoke less and limit her drinking only to going out. She is also drinking more water to hydrate her skin and paying more attention to what she eats, because she knows that too is ruining her complexion, the same insider reveals. By overhauling her lifestyle, Moss is convinced she will look ten years younger in just a short time – granted she manages to stick to the changes she makes and doesn’t lose focus on her goal.

“She is now eating three regular healthy meals a day. For breakfast she will have a poached egg on a slice of wholemeal toast, grilled chicken with vegetables and a salad for lunch and wholemeal pasta with fish for dinner. She is also drinking two liters of water a day. Her alcohol consumption is being limited to only when she goes out and has made a pact with Jamie that she will try not to drink during the week. She is also trying to cut down on the amount of cigarettes she smokes.” the same source explains.
