Angelina Jolie is the new face of Tom Ford's beauty brand.
The Hollywood actress has become the first ever celebrity ambassador for Tom Ford Beauty after agreeing to star in a new campaign for the fashion mogul's relaunched lipstick line Runway Lip Color which launches in September.
Angelina insisted she's a big fan of the brand's Scarlet Rouge shade, which she is seen wearing in the new ads.
She told WWD.com: 'It's a beautiful color and texture. A good red lip needs little else. It's worn with intention. That was part of the discussion.'
Tom Ford Beauty's president and chief executive officer Guillaume Jesel added of bringing in Jolie: 'She appeals to a broad demographic, and she has global appeal. We are branded very internationally, and are well diversified around the world. And her appeal to Gen Z is very interesting.'

He also explained the adverts featuring the actress have an intentional link to the film world, saying: 'In terms of the celebrity aspect, the connection of film is something that's been there naturally.
'Tom is a filmmaker and he shot a lot of his own photography. The connection to film and the cinematic aspect of the visual imagery that he created for this brand set it aside from anyone else and has been integral to our DNA.'
He added of the revamped lip range: 'Lip is the ultimate fashion accessory, it's a carrier of the brand DNA, and it is at the core of the brand identity.'
The new collection replaces the previous Lip Color lipsticks and will boast 18 shades - 10 which are new and eight which have been brought over from the previous range.
Runway Lip Color also features Runway Lip Pencils in eight shades. The lipsticks are priced at $62 while the pencils retail for $46.
This comes as Jolie's son Pax is said to be 'stable' after his e-bike accident.
The mother-of-six 'Maleficent' actress, 49, reportedly raced to be by her boy's side when the 20-year-old was hospitalised following his crash at around 5pm on Monday (29.07.24) when he was on Los Feliz Boulevard, Los Angeles.
A source has now told Page Six he is 'stable', adding Angelina 'is by Pax's side at the hospital as he recuperates'.
Law enforcement sources told TMZ Pax smashed his electric bicycle into a stopped vehicle at a congested intersection when a traffic light turned red.
She told WWD.com: 'It's a beautiful color and texture. A good red lip needs little else. It's worn with intention. That was part of the discussion.' Seen in June in NYC
The driver reportedly hopped out of the car to check on Pax before first responders were called.
Pax – said not to have been wearing a helmet at the time of the incident – reportedly suffered a head injury and was left with hip pain and was then rushed to hospital for treatment.
Page Six said even though paramedics were worried that Pax was experiencing minor brain bleeding, it is understood he is 'doing better' and 'may be discharged' from hospital later on Tuesday (30.07.24.)
Along with Pax, Angelina has five other children with her 60-year-old 'Fight Club' actor ex – Maddox, 22, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
Jolie and Brad Pitt were declared legally single in 2019 but their battles over custody, as well as their Chateau Miraval winery fight, are ongoing. Seen in 2015
Angelina and Brad started dating in 2004 and married 10 years later – but split in 2016 and have been since been embroiled in bitter battles over child custody and ownership deals linked to their French vineyard.
Brad initially won a 50-50 custody agreement that was sealed for privacy in 2021 but overturned later the same year.
The exes were declared legally single in 2019 but their battles over custody, as well as their Chateau Miraval winery fight, are ongoing.
ANGELINA JOLIE'S COOL STORE
Angelina Jolie's store Atelier Jolie opened last year.
And this month the actress' New York City shop has been buzzing with classes on how to be creative with clothing.
On Thursday there will be a session on 'upcycling,' which means reusing old items. On August 28 a class is offered called Experimental Drawing with Andrew Castrucci.
Before that there was a class on intimates 'where you can learn how to create designer-inspired intimate apparel.' And there was another gathering with Giancarlo Cipri on how to silkscreen and Mimi Plange on using appliqué through felting.
Jolie has also hosted a conversation with artist Ferrari Sheppard.
The mostly brown and beige 6,600 sq ft space has an inviting café and an art gallery. It's located on 57 Great Jones Street as if open Tuesdays to Saturdays.
'The place is bustling and has a very smart vibe, I like it in there, it's amazing,' said a fan of Atelier Jolie. 'It's a cool place to hang out.'

'It definitely was a labor of love for Jolie to highlight artists. And the coffee is good, the café is fun,' the source added.
'Everyone there seems genuinely interested in not doing what The Gap sells - there is a lot of hand crafting. The classes are cool. And people do talk about how incredible Angelina is for opening the shop. They adore her. A lot of Jolie fans there.
'Angelina does come into the Atelier, and so do some of her kids.'
Inside the store hangs clothing from sustainable brands from all over the world, Atelier Jolie’s own collection, art, and a café run by refugees called Eat Offbeat.
It is in New York’s NoHo neighborhood that was formerly the studio and home of Jean-Michel Basquiat, per WSJ.
Last year Jolie told WSJ that she will 'probably lose money, maybe even for a while' on her store.
'If I can eventually put into practice some things that I think are improvements and I just break even, that’s a huge victory,' said the Salt star.
Earlier this year they put a call out to creators.
The shop has a piano, chairs and tables, books, and a bar

'To all creators-Everyone can join one way or another.
'Every customer will be part... And anyone who visits or participates online, or at the many events will be a part… But today we are focusing on one part of our Atelier family.'
The Tomb Raider star added she was looking for 'skilled tailors.'
'The first atelier is going to be in NYC, this post is for skilled tailors living there. We hope there will be others soon, as we build a global family.
'We are looking for tailors who understand quality and creativity. Atelier Jolie will curate a few up-and-coming skilled tailors who have a strong point of view on design.
'This collective’s purpose is to collaborate with customers, supporting them with tools to design and create. You will also have a chance to develop your own line and sell in the shop under your name, to help launch your own new sustainable brand after leaving the residency.
'We understand because of financial reasons that you may not have been able to touch on sustainability, so we are here to support that endeavor.
'Soon, we will be looking for artisans—with a focus on embroidery, fabric painting, fabric manipulations, etc... There will be different calls for talent submissions. Some in-house… Some for special events and salon dinners... Some are to be featured in tutorials online. All to help share your creativity.
'As you fill out the submission form below, I encourage everyone as artists to always protect your creations. You should never submit confidential designs… share what you have shared with the world already. We will see the work with respect and integrity.
'We look forward to reviewing them. Remember, if you don’t hear from us this round, there will be many more rounds and other opportunities to come.
'Thank you in advance for sharing your creativity. Be bold.
'Love, Angelina Jolie, Founder.'
