Lucas’s role as ambassador means he will be promoting Guerlain’s new third-generation skincare product. The product aims to repair skin nine times faster than its previous counterparts, and gives a plumper, smoother, and more radiant appearance. The oil is said to contain “95% naturally derived ingredients,” including Black Bee Honey and exclusive royal jelly, which is where the inspiration for Lucas’s campaign arose.
Both the advertisement video and images center around the warm golden tones found in honey, being reflected in the products packaging, set design, warm lighting and Lucas’ famous luminous skin. Making him the perfect candidate for such a campaign.
Fan Frenzie
Matching the golden honey set, Lucas is seen with glowing skin and a perfect complexion. Fans fell in love all over again, taking to social media to praise him on yet another brand deal and sharing their initial reactions, including predictions of the product being sold out!
