Kate Moss on nail painting: Its one of the things I like to do on holiday

As a supermodel who claims to paint her own nails, it's fitting that Kate Moss has launched a new Super Pro home colour nail collection. "Nails are a huge influence now, it's part of the look now, it's as much as the hair and make up," says Moss.

Speaking about Rimmel polishes, for whom she is the face, Moss revealed that she'd always used the brand's pots: "the thick brush... it was always just really easy that I could do it myself."

"I'm really good at painting, and other people's. I like doing it. It's one of the things I like to do on holiday - a line up of all the girls and make their nails look nice."

But this time around, for her new Super Pro Collection by Rimmel, the colours have got better. Moss said choosing the shades came instinctively: "something would inspire me whether it's, you know, a band or a film or some kind of character - Debbie Harry, you know in Studio 54."

Moss revealed that her favourite colour in the collection was Soul Sessions (a pale beige-pink). "I do like punk rock" she explained, but I'm quite a neutral girl so I think the Soul Sessions colour I quite like, it's done but not making a statement."

As for Moss's nails tips?

Don't do matchy matchy lips and nails: "on a set it would be a big no no..it's always a clash."

For healthy nails it's about "eating well and juicing - the more vitamins you have the better the condition of your nails."

And when it comes to length, although Moss admitted having quite long nails and getting into "being the vampy kind of lady for Christmas," she's back to her signature short neat nail which looks "fresh and younger and shorter."
