Beckham: How I stay gorgeous (barf alert)
This Is London ^ | 29 April 2005 | Andre Paine

David Beckham has revealed details of his beauty regime - including moisturising, eye cream and manicures.

The Real Madrid star came clean after being voted the world's Most Beautiful Sports Icon by America's People magazine.

He admitted to taking tips from wife Victoria, who is equally obsessed with looking good.

Beckham, 30 next month, said: "I've learned a lot. Being out in the cold and rain doesn't help your skin, so moisturiser in the morning is a big thing.

"And at night it's the eye cream. A manicure is probably my favourite pampering splurge."

Beckham is the only British sports star in the annual 50 Most Beautiful People poll.

He also denies his wife's infamous suggestion that he wears her G-strings.

"I wouldn't get them past my knees," he said.

Last year, Victoria Beckham revealed she smothers beauty creams on her husband at bedtime.

She said: "David is very much a new man, totally in touch with his feminine side. He loves having his face and nails done."

He also plucks his eyebrows and has spray-on tans, and famously wore pink nail polish at the christening of Elizabeth Hurley's son Damian.

Beckham is said to favour La Prairie eye cream, which costs more than £50 for 15ml.

The footballer also regularly changes his hairstyle and says his biggest regret was when a dye temporarily left it black.

The England captain also boasts that his wife says his best feature is his bottom. "She likes it because it's firm," he said.

However, Beckham told the magazine he doesn't like the look of his feet.

Legal proceedings launched by the Beckhams against their former nanny for breach of confidence are set to reach the High Court today.

The couple decided to take action following claims by Abbie Gibson in a newspaper that their six-year marriage was on the rocks. She is said to have received an estimated £300,000 for the story.

Okay..you continue to be ruggedly handsome, and I'll stick with terminally pretty.

Enter the lyrics police, it's "brutally handsome" and "terminally pretty."
