Johnson & Johnson-owned Neutrogena has named Australian actor Nicole Kidman Global Brand Ambassador.

“I am very excited to share the news that Academy Award winning actress Nicole Kidman has become our newest Global Brand Ambassador,” said Carla Speering, Group Marketing Manager at Johnson & Johnson Pacific. “She embodies the true spirit of the women that we are committed to everyday, their passion, strength and focus are what makes Neutrogena women so special.”

“From the time I was a little girl, my mum taught me to protect my skin from the sun,” said Kidman. “So looking after the health of my skin is something I’ve grown up understanding.”

Kidman’s first commercial for the skin care brand will air for the first time during the Academy Awards on February 25.
