Actress and model ANGIE HARMON doesn’t look any different than she did when she first made her mark in Hollywood nearly 26 years ago.

Her real segue into beauty came during her modeling days as a teenager in the late 1980s. “It was an incredible time for me. It’s interesting to see the transition of what is considered beautiful and how it’s changed. I remember being in Milan—one of the first times I was modeling—and seeing Linda Evangelista in person. Her beauty literally brought tears to my eyes. She had this elegance, class and sass to her, and she was beautiful. The supermodels of the late ’80s and early ’90s had this confidence to them, but it wasn’t arrogance. They owned what they had and didn’t hide it. That was really sort of burned into my brain and still is today.”

ome may say it’s because she hit the genetic lottery—it doesn’t hurt that both of her parents were models, too— while others may credit her flawless skin and to-die-for body to simply taking care of herself. But no matter which way you slice it, Angie says her look hasn’t veered all that much from when she first burst onto the scene because she knows what works for her. “I love a good, fun trend, but I’ve learned to stick more with the classics and what looks good on me,” says the mother of three. “I feel best when I’ve got a little bit of a tan, a great coat of mascara on my lashes and soft, shiny hair, which is pretty much what I’ve always worn, and still do.”
