The Goop entrepreneur outfitted her toned figure in a black and white color-blocked Stella McCartney Miracle One Shoulder Bikini Top and Classic Bikini Bottoms ($195 and $130, shopbop.com). She tied her blonde hair into a messy bun, shielded her eyes with white square-framed sunglasses and went barefoot as she explored the beach.

And just two days later, she sizzled in a brighter, skimpier bikini in an Instagram post. “#tbt Monday when @jcvn40 caught me in an epic nap on the beach,” she captioned a Thursday, September 29, post where she rested in a blue string two-piece.

Paltrow, who’s mom of Apple, 12, and Moses, 10, with ex-husband Chris Martin, is loving the skin she’s in as she turns a year older. On September 27, she took a page from Alicia Keys’ book and ditched the cosemtics. “#nomakeup for my 44th birthday, embracing my past and future. Thank you for the instalove #goopgoesmakeupfree,” she captioned the photo that racked up over 215,000 likes.

It seems like makeup-free is the way to be for Paltrow. “In the day, I generally don’t wear that much makeup,” she told the New York Times in an April 4 story. “The culture in L.A.: You’re outside a lot, there’s hiking and swimming. It feels in a way that you’re more engaged with nature.”

She’s also picked up a few tips from Apple. “I often go out with just mascara and a little cheek. I don’t use bronzer.” Paltrow continued. “You need technique to use bronzer, highlighter and BB cream, all these things my daughter tells me about.”
