Lea Michele has just been announced as a new brand ambassador for L’Oreal Paris cosmetics. It’s certainly a boost for the Glee star’s career, putting her in the same ranks as Gwen Stefani and Beyonce, who also represent the global beauty brand. The first look at her upcoming campaign—which will run on TV and in print in early 2013—is a black and white shots of the actress with her beautiful brown wavy hair taking up most of the spotlight. Whether she’ll represent hair, makeup or specific product is yet to be determined, though Lea Michele did reference her first experience with L’Oreal Paris lipstick in the press release. Long-lasting lipstick does seem like a good fit for a singer, but we’ll have to wait until next year to know for sure.
Coincidentally, one of Lea Michele’s Glee co-stars (well, guest co-star) also announced a cosmetics partnership yesterday: Gwyneth Paltrow will serve as “creative inspiration” for Max Factor‘s makeup artists over the coming six months. Launching in November, the actress will model various makeup looks that have been created to reflect different parts of her life, from actress and mother to singer and model. And just when you couldn’t be more jealous of all the amazing things Gwyneth Paltrow does, consider this: the campaign is being curated by Pat McGrath, who holds the title of Max Factor’s global creative design director. While it’s not set to launch in North America, we’re sure the internet will keep us fully connected with each of the Gwyneth Paltrow ads as they are released.
