Paltrow headed for Instagram with a make up free post, posting "#Nomakeup for my 44th birthday, embracing my past and future," Thank you for the instalove #goopgoesmakeupfree @goop."sporting a floral, v-neck top while showing off her long blond locks.
The actress has been open about her beauty routines in recent interviews as well as her best-selling books. And as it turns out, the proud mom isn't all that crazy about makeup. "I often go out with just mascara and a little cheek. I don't use bronzer," she shared with the New York Times. "You need technique to use bronzer, highlighter and BB cream, all these things my daughter tells me about." If you have to wear makeup, the actress advises fans to skip anything that is toxic. And when it comes to protecting yourself from the sun, always use mineral sunscreen. "I only use mineral sunscreens, never the chemicals one," she revealed. "I don't understand why anyone would put on carcinogens." Gwyneth hopes that her businesses continue to succeed in the years to come and the A-list star would like to separate her personal brand from Goop. "More and more, I would like it to be its own brand," she explained at the Saga Summit in Chicago. "My dream is that one day no one will remember that I had anything to do with it."
