Hollywood darling Jennifer Aniston has just been announced as the keynote speaker for this year’s Women’s Wear Daily Beauty CEO Summit, a three-day event featuring speakers, presentations and more tailored specifically for beauty industry leaders. Aniston will be speaking from her perspective as a co-owner of Living Proof, a hair care company based in the U.S.
“Jennifer embodies everything we stand for – a unique combination of beauty and brains,” said Living Proof CEO Jill Beraud, who is appearing onstage with Aniston and will speak about the company. “She not only has the most fabulous hair but is an amazing creative talent, and has shown she is a savvy businesswoman with a serious interest in developing small, innovative companies.”
Last week, Aniston was also named brand ambassador for skincare brand Aveeno, having appeared in television advertisements for the company since last year. The 45-year-old actress revealed that her love of skincare products is one that she shares with her real-life love, fiancé Justin Theroux, in a recent E! News interview.
‘He is good to his skin, that’s for sure. It’s always, ‘What are you using? What is that?” she said. ‘It’s hysterical! What product doesn’t he try to hijack?’
With a long and distinguished career in Hollywood, Aniston has tried out a number of beauty trends and had her fair share of hairstyles (those signature blonde locks have long been the envy of many a woman!). Now that she’s built a reputation for herself within the beauty industry, Aniston will certainly have some insightful words to share with the audience at the WWD Beauty CEO Summit, which is scheduled for May 7-9 in Palm Beach, Florida.
Other speakers at this year’s event include L’Oréal USA president and CEO Frédéric Rozé, Drybar founder Alli Webb, and Ciaté London founder and creative director Charlotte Knight. For more information, visit the WWD Beauty CEO Summit website.
