Tasmanian acting import Rachael Taylor has been in a long list of movies and TV shows, but the actress’ latest role sees her welcomed into the skincare world as the new face of Neutrogena. Taylor will not only lead the launch of the brand’s latest innovations, but will assist in the release of its empowerment campaign ‘See What’s Possible’. Taylor recently spoke to BD about her new ambassadorship:
Why did you choose to align yourself with Neutrogena?
I'm a long-standing fan of the brand so it was a natural fit. I'm passionate about good skin and products that deliver real results. And I'm very invested in facilitating conversations about empowering women to achieve their dreams. Neutrogena are doing that with their See What's Possible campaign.
Can you remember your first experience with the brand?
I had sort of tricky skin in my late teens and a dermatologist recommended the Oil Free Acne Wash, which is one of Neutrogena’s classic products and it really helped. I was over-scrubbing my face, and Neutrogena’s products know how to get skin clean without completely disrupting the skin’s PH balance. They have a great history of dermatologically-approved innovation with their skincare. When you feel good in your skin, you feel like you can put your best face forward and hold yourself with a bit of extra confidence.
What will your role as ambassador entail?
I'm excited to launch the Neutrogena Deep Clean Micellar Gel to Foam. It's a great product that uses Micellar Gel technology to remove make-up and impurities, and then you add water and it transforms to a foaming cleanser. It's very clever! Removing make-up and cleansing my face is important to me because I wear a lot of make-up for work.
What appealed to you about the See What's Possible campaign?
The Neutrogena See What’s Possible campaign is about empowering women to put their best face forward and achieve their dreams and it's a message I can really stand behind. It's about girls and women facing their future with a sense of optimism and feeling good in their skin - that’s a conversation I'm always happy to have.
