Who would have thought that you could earn a living with your hands, and absolutely doing nothing with them. Ashly Covington is one of the most successful models of our time, but you will never see her on the covers of famous publications and advertisements, except perhaps a small part of her body. For the past 14 years, Ashley Covington has been working as a professional hand model full-time. Due to her specific profession, Ashley is forced to almost always wear gloves so as not to damage her hands. With her irresistible hands, she replaced the hands of such famous women as Adriana Lima, Brooke Shields and Charlize Theron on advertising posters. Also, her hands managed to light up in the advertisements of such famous brands as Dior, Maybelline, Rolex and Sephora.
