Steph Claire Smith showed off her stunning physique in a skimpy bikini on Monday while reflecting on one of her insecurities.

The 30-year-old fitness influencer shared a video to Instagram of herself wearing a tight black and white two-piece while sitting in an infrared sauna.

Her athletic physique was on full display as she opened up about a birthmark she is ‘incredibly insecure about’.

‘Something that I used to be incredibly insecure about was my birthmark on my leg,’ said the Keep It Cleaner (KIC) founder, as she showed the mark on her upper thigh. 

‘Growing up, if I ever found myself in shorts or bathers where you could see it… I put a Band-Aid on it.’

She then went on to claim that some childhood friends convinced her to be more confident and to wear ‘short shorts’ to an event.

However, Steph claimed that later in her life as she got into modelling, the industry did not value ‘imperfections’ and often airbrushed it out of photos.

The influencer said she recently received some direct messages on Instagram which praised her for not hiding her mole in pictures.

Taking to Instagram, the 30-year-old fitness influencer shared a video of herself in an infrared sauna. Her athletic physique was on full display as she opened up about how a birthmark has caused her ‘shame’

‘I came to accept that it’s something that makes me unique, and that’s what makes it beautiful,’ she said in the post.

It comes as Steph and her KIC co-founder Laura Henshaw opened up about an ugly feud that almost ruined their friendship.

The fitness influencers were enjoying a getaway with their husbands Dalton Graham and Josh Miller when the pair of besties got into a heated quarrel.

‘Something that I used to be incredibly insecure about was my birthmark on my leg,’ said the Keep It Cleaner (KIC) founder, as she showed the mole on her upper thigh

Their respective husbands had to intervene at one point during the stoush to calm things down.

Now Laura, 30, and Steph have dished up some behind the scenes details about the incident.

Opening up on their Kicpod podcast, the pair of best mates said they never came close to getting physical during their argument.

However, the business partners and friends short-changed fans on the details of the fight and what caused it.

Reviewing Laura and Steph’s discussion on their Outspoken podcast, sisters Amy, Sophie and Kate Taeuber tried to get to the bottom of the partners’ feud.

‘It just went around in circles I just felt like I was this friend listening into this conversation that I was out of the loop because they never once addressed what this fight was about,’ they said.

Amy then said she felt sympathy for the two best friends. 

‘I feel for them,’ she said, and continued: ‘You say things to your family members that you wouldn’t that you never say to anybody else.

‘You forgive a family member where you may not forgive a friend.’
