Gwyneth Paltrow always looks effortlessly glowing.

Yes, that might be partly due to great genes and a healthy lifestyle, but she also has access to makeup artists with insider knowledge of the best beauty products around – and one of them has just shared her advice for flawless foundation application.

Speaking to Who What Wear, celebrity makeup artist Jamie Greenberg explained that “Many women haphazardly schmear on foundation or tinted moisturiser with their hands and often miss spots or create lines of demarcation [at the neck or hairline].

"It's so important to take your time and put it on evenly."

And the best way to do this?

Instead of slapping on foundation with your fingers, try a thick foundation brush like the EcoTools Wonder Cover Complexion brush.

Why is this brush so good, you ask?

Well, it has 100,000 bristles to help you achieve full coverage of liquid and cream foundation in less time.

The hundreds of ratings on Amazon prove that it’s not just Greenberg and Paltrow who are fans.

“This is a super foundation brush. This is a very compact head with apparently 100,000 bristles - it feels way denser than any other brush I have used,” wrote one shopper.

While another added: “I love a good makeup brush, I do - and this one is no exception. It's designed particularly for putting on foundation or powders, and I was really impressed to find out it's vegan! It's also made with sustainable bamboo.

“The brush feels so soft, the handle feels nice to hold, and the bristles are really soft and they feel tough, too.”
