Seyfried, whose hit films include "Mamma Mia' and 'Les Misérables,' is something of an expert when it comes to fronting beauty campaigns, having previously worked as the spokesperson for the Japanese luxury brand Clé de Peau Beauté for several years. She has also represented Givenchy's 'Irrésistible' fragrance.

In teaming up with Lancôme, the star joins a stellar cast of ambassadors and spokesmodels that includes the actresses Zendaya, Julia Roberts, Kate Winslet and Lupita Nyong'o, among others.
