There is no doubt that the fashion industry has been very very instrumental in helping 12 Years a Slave Actress and Oscar Winner Lupita Nyong’o lay the foundation for a very successful career in the creative arts. Her cross over appeal has also spilled from fashion and film to music (Yes. Jay-Z recently gave her a shout out on his latest track).
Now, Lupita has been named the new face of Lancôme, the fragrance and cosmetic brand owned by L’Oreal. Check out the exciting news!
