Gwyneth Paltrow Talks Red Carpet Beauty Tricks In New Max Factor Campaign: Watch

The A-list actress is the new face and creative inspiration behind the make-up brand.

Gwyneth Paltrow has revealed the secret tricks behind her flawless red carpet looks in an exclusive behind-the-scenes video for Max Factor.

The 39-year-old A-lister never fails to wow on the red carpet - whether she's letting her tan do the talking by teaming sunkissed skin with a shimmery eye and a neutral lip or vamping it up with a pillbox red pout, Gwyneth nails it time after time.

And now, the face of Max Factor and newly-named 'Creative Inspiration' behind the brand has been letting us in on her Hollywood beauty regime, as well as allowing us a peek of the on-set action for Max Factor's upcoming November campaign.

In the clip, make-up artist Mel Arter talks us through the super svelte mum-of-one's dramatic red carpet make-up look. Gwyneth, meanwhile, showcases her impossible slender limbs in a showstopping black backless gown, while wearing her poker-straight locks swept back into a chic ponytail.
