    The Texan model explains the secret to feeling good and standing out in a sea of gorgeous women

    Erin Wasson knows a thing or two about feeling beautiful.

    With her sun-kissed skin and camera-ready smile, the 32-year-old American supermodel always looks fab. So we just had to find out her secret.

    'Confidence is beauty - 100 per cent,' Erin explains in the May issue of Marie Claire. 'Stop looking at Instagram and comparing yourself to everyone. Allow your own experiences to give you strength.'

    Of course, looking gorgeous is also about choosing the right make-up - a skill Erin has down to a science. Pick up the May issue Marie Claire (on newsstands now) to read all her must-follow beauty tips and find out why she's named her personal style 'Johnny Cash.'
