Gisele Bundchen has reportedly scored a two-year endorsement deal with international cosmetics firm Max Factor.

According to an insider, the Brazilian supermodel is going to pocket about US$2.5 million for endorsing the brand.

"The campaign will start by summer," E! Online quoted the insider, as saying.

The source also said that Bundchen is apparently very happy because when she was with Victoria's Secret, she was not allowed to endorse any other beauty products.

There has been no response from Carmen Electra, the current face of Max Factor's makeup line, on whether her contract will be renewed, or if Bundchen will effectively be replacing her.

However, a company spokesperson said: "Max Factor can confirm that Carmen Electra is the face of the brand."
