“We are honoured to welcome Gillian Anderson to the L’Oréal Paris family," Delphine Viguier-Hovasse, L’Oréal Paris global president, said. "Not only is she a true icon with a decades-long career that spans stage and screen, but she shares our mission at L’Oréal Paris to empower women to celebrate their beauty at every age. With her history of inspiring women, elevating their stories, and fighting for their rights, she encourages all of us to defy conventional timelines and be unstoppable—no matter our age.”

Anderson will be part of L’Oréal Paris’ Age Perfect campaign, which celebrates living life the fullest and highlights the Age Perfect product, which caters to a wide range of mature skin care needs. 

“Women are extraordinary; unique, complex, brilliant, beautiful inside and out, at every age," Anderson said. "Yet the conventional narrative surrounding women and aging, rarely, if ever reflects that. L’Oréal Paris has championed women of all ages for decades, and I’m thrilled to join them as they inspire women to break free from stereotypes and put themselves at the center of their own stories.”
