Lancôme has announced that Zoe Saldaña has joined its collective of global ambassadors. The Academy Award-winning actress, producer, and global icon embodies the brand's sophisticated allure with what the company describes as a grounded perspective on beauty and authenticity.

A powerhouse across skincare, makeup, and fragrance, Lancôme defines its signature expression as effortless French femininity, sophisticated, slightly irreverent, and deeply connected to a global community of women.

Accomplished Career

Zoe Saldaña is the highest-grossing film actor of all time, having starred in the top three blockbuster films: Avatar, Avatar: The Way of Water, and Marvel Studios' Avengers: Endgame. She most recently reprised her iconic role as Neytiri in the third installment of the Avatar franchise, Avatar: Fire and Ash, and starred in Emilia Pérez by filmmaker Jacques Audiard.

In 2025, Saldaña won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Rita in the Spanish-language musical crime comedy. The performance was also recognized with Golden Globe, Critics' Choice, SAG, and BAFTA awards in the same category.

She most recently wrapped production on season three of Taylor Sheridan's undercover CIA drama series Lioness, in which she stars alongside Nicole Kidman and Morgan Freeman and serves as executive producer through Cinestar Pictures, which she founded with her sisters Mariel and Cisely in 2013.

Partnership Vision

On joining Lancôme as a global ambassador, Zoe Saldaña said that the brand has always stood for a grounded and deeply human vision of beauty. "That speaks to who I am as a woman, as an actress, and as a parent," she said. "Beauty, to me, is about conviction: the courage to set your own terms and the confidence to uphold them."

Vania Lacascade, Lancôme Global Brand President, stated that Saldaña is far more than a global icon. "She is a dynamic force who bridges worlds, cultures, and generations," Lacascade said. "She brings a grounded authority and a rare intellectual depth that resonate deeply with today's women, who seek substance over surface."

Lacascade emphasized that beyond her energy and grace, it is Saldaña's unwavering sense of self and commitment to meaningful storytelling that make her a powerful voice for Lancôme.

First Campaign: Absolue Longevity MD

In her first campaign for the brand, Zoe Saldaña will be the face of Absolue Longevity MD, Lancôme's first dermatologist-validated skincare range grounded in what the company calls Longevity Integrative Science. Formulated with Mitopure, the number one selling longevity urolithin-A supplement ingredient adapted for topical skincare, the collection represents a new frontier in longevity skincare.

The range is comprised of three distinctive skincare approaches: Anticipate, Intercept, and Reset. Designed to target visible aging signs including firmness, suppleness, radiance, fine lines, and smoothness, the products aim to help preserve the look of strength, vitality, and radiance over time.

Diverse Ambassador Collective

A woman of multicultural heritage who leads with both vulnerability and authenticity, Saldaña joins a remarkable and diverse collective of global ambassadors that includes Julia Roberts, Olivia Rodrigo, Christy Turlington, Isabella Rossellini, Aya Nakamura, and Vanessa Kirby among others.

Founded in 1935 by visionary pioneer Armand Petitjean with the wish of spreading the spirit and taste of French elegance around the world, Lancôme immediately embodied the essence of beauty. The brand aims to offer every woman the possibility to blossom and embrace her beauty and femininity whatever her age or skin color.

Lancôme is present in 135 countries, with about 20,000 beauty advisers offering sophisticated services and iconic products to an international clientele. The brand successfully combines scientific expertise and an intuitive understanding of women's needs to produce innovations that are complementary across skincare, makeup, and perfume.

Lancôme affirms that happiness is the most attractive beauty, choosing charismatic and fully accomplished women to embody that philosophy.
