31-year-old actress is the new face of Lancôme cosmetics, becoming the first

Roberts, Kate Winslet and Penelope Cruz, as ambassadors. The actress who

excited about the new gig.

In a statement, she says “I am truly honoured to
join the Maison Lancôme, a brand with such a prestigious history that I have
always loved. I am particularly proud to represent its unique vision for women
and the idea that beauty should not be dictated, but should instead be an
expression of a woman’s freedom to be herself.” she said.
