13 Apr – Good things continue to come for Oscar's newest Best Actress Michelle Yeoh, as she recently became the face of luxury skincare brand La Mer. The actress joined the likes of Ana de Armas and Patrick Ta to be filming an advertisement for the brand, which La Mer posted on its official social media account recently. In it, the actress can be seen applying the make-up, showing off her dancing ability, and saying that she had always wanted to be a ballerina but ended up becoming an action star in Hong Kong as she didn't want to play a damsel-in-distress.
"The sea is very special to me," she said, in another post. "It's a place where I find calm and inspiration, and it brings warm memories of my time spent there with family. That same connection is what drew me to La Mer." Sandra Main, Global Brand President of La Mer, expressed, "Over the last year, we've been thrilled to watch Michelle's journey as she collected long-overdue industry accolades and broke barrier after barrier. Michelle has defied conventional notions of time and it's an honour to partner with such an inspiring trailblazer who demonstrates that achievement knows no limits. We believe her story resonates across generations and captures the essence of La Mer's ethos of enduring, ageless beauty that stands the test of time."
