“America is a powerful and thought-provoking role model and an advocate for individualism and inclusion, making her a natural Covergirl partner, as we continue to make beauty accessible and inclusive, through products and campaigns that speak to all audiences, including the LatinX community.”

Ferrera is an award-winning actor, director and producer best known for her breakthrough role as Betty Suarez on the comedy show, Ugly Betty, which earned her an Emmy, a Screen Actors Guild Award, and a Golden Globe, as well as ALMA and Imagen Awards. 

Most recently, she executive-produced and directed several episodes of Netflix’s hit Latinx Dramedy, Gentefied. She also starred in, executive produced, and directed many episodes of the workplace comedy, Superstore, which ended its six-season run in March. Next, Ferrera will make her feature film directorial debut with I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter and co-star in AppleTV+’s, We Crashed.

“Easy and natural makeup has always been my favorite kind of beauty. I like to feel and look like myself,” added Ferrera. “For me, beauty is about loving and accepting myself first and foremost and as a Covergirl, I want to share that message; Your uniqueness is what makes you beautiful and your authentic identity is your superpower.”
