Jen and Russ swop style tips

Jennifer Garner and Russell Brand have been swapping beauty tips.

The actress – who is married to Hollywood hunk Ben Affleck – and the British funnyman have reportedly grown close on the set of their new film Arthur following a series of lengthy discussions about their favourite products.

A source told National Enquirer magazine: "Russell offered Jennifer his favourite nail polish shade, OPI's Lincoln Park After Dark and kindly bought her a bottle. Another day they were chatting about shampoos and apparently Jennifer suggested Russell cut off his long wavy locks before his wedding day to Katy Perry, so he could 'look back on the pictures later and not cringe'."

The pair is appearing in the remake of the classic 1981 film alongside Dame Helen Mirren and Greta Gerwig.

The screen legend recently praised Russell for his portrayal of the titular character, a party-going alcoholic who faces losing his inheritance after falling in love with a woman who doesn't meet his family's approval.

She said: "It's unlike most other film experience, where you don't change lines that much. But Russell isn't a wild cannon.

"He has an incredible comedian's brain but he pays attention to detail."
