British beauty Elizabeth Hurley has branded bikini photoshoots her personal 'unmitigated hell'.
The star has bedazzled both men and women with her fabulous body, but she admits that she is tired of prancing about in bikinis.
'Shooting bikinis is now my life, which, as you can imagine, is unmitigated hell. I can't think of anything worse than another bikini shoot -- and I've got two next month,' The Sun quoted her, as telling The Sunday Times.
'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 adds that she can't even relax after a shoot, for then she has to worry about designers who want to reshape her facial features.
'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,' she says.
'Often, people will want to correct my 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.''
The star recently got decked out in a range of skimpy swimwear to pose among the rigging for high street store Mango.
