Here, the 28-year-old from Perth, who is the face of David Jones, reveals some of the secrets to her success.
FOOD
Jessica eats to nourish rather than deprive herself and is a big fan of brown rice, green vegetables and quinoa. Here’s a typical day of meals:
Breakfast: Blueberries or sliced mango with Greek yoghurt or a fruit smoothie with added protein and vitamin supplements. And a good coffee. Alternatively, poached or scrambled eggs with avocado, salmon or good quality bacon.
Lunch: Kale salad with some white fish or a chopped salad with chicken. At least three times a week, cold-pressed green juices too.
Dinner: Grilled salmon with spinach and a little bit of mashed potato or sweet potato. If she feels like a splurge, steak and fries.
EXERCISE
Variety is key for Jessica, who listens to her body when it comes to exercise rather than punishing herself with strenuous daily workouts.
Her personal trainer works her hard when she’s up for it but, she says, “when I feel I want a more gentle exercise we do Pilates and yoga. I love to sweat it out in the gym and also to get out and hike and do walks”.
And she’s an enthusiastic proponent of massage and pampering too.
BEAUTY
Despite having a world of expensive anti-ageing creams and artful make-up at her fingertips, Jessica keeps things simple in the bathroom.
Her daily regime is “oil cleansing, foam cleansing, toning and moisturising”, supplemented by a weekly mask and a monthly deep cleansing and facial.
And despite the pressures of her industry, Jessica is not tempted by cosmetic surgery. She prefers a natural look. “I think it just makes people look the same and not different,” she says. “It scares me.”
