It's no secret that supermodels make a lot of money. Reigning in prestigious magazine photo shoots and locking in valuable endorsement deals with top beauty brands, models have got the goods to earn some big bucks.

But there's a select group of models whose beauty and business acumen has made them top earners for the year 2014. From a list provided by Forbes, the rankings are based off of pre-tax earnings based off of income made from solely modeling from June 2013-June 2014, so no actresses or singers are on the list. Check out the gallery above to see which beautiful ladies are packing the most money and makeup in their purse.
