NEW YORK, March 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- In celebration of International Women's Day, L'Oréal Paris global ambassador Gillian Anderson lends her voice in the latest installment of Lessons of Worth, the brand's ongoing series of personal testimonies inspired by the brand's iconic tagline "I'm Worth It." 

The actress and advocate affirms a powerful truth: a woman's relevance – and worth – does not diminish with age. Inspired by her message, L'Oréal Paris invites the public to nominate a Woman of Worth, with submissions closing March 8, honoring women who are making a meaningful difference in their communities.

Today, 70%¹ of women believe they become invisible with age. For Gillian Anderson, joining the Lessons of Worth is an opportunity to challenge this and other stereotypes about aging and womanhood: "The greatest misconception is that a woman over fifty just shouldn't bother. Bother to start dating, bother to start a business, bother to pursue dreams. People often ignore the wisdom and energy we've gained. In reality, this is the time when many women truly find their power and shine. And this is exactly what I want to acknowledge in my Lesson of Worth. Women over 50 are, more than ever, worth it," says Gillian Anderson.

Rooted in L'Oréal Paris' longstanding commitment to women's empowerment and self-worth, Lessons of Worth provides a space for L'Oréal Paris ambassadors to share defining experiences that have shaped their confidence and self-belief. These personal reflections invite women everywhere to recognize their intrinsic value and embrace their authentic selves.

Anderson joins fellow Lessons of Worth ambassadors including Viola Davis, Jane Fonda, Elle Fanning, and Kendall Jenner in advancing the brand's mission to amplify women's voices, challenge limiting narratives, and build confidence at every age.

As a L'Oréal Paris ambassador, Anderson reflects the brand's belief that women deserve to feel confident, celebrated, and self-assured in every chapter of their lives. From The X-Files to The Crown, Sex Education, and Scoop, her career has inspired generations through her portrayals of complex, empowered women. Her work continues to challenge cultural narratives around ambition, experience, equality, and representation.

"Gillian Anderson's Lesson of Worth is a powerful reminder to all women that they can be who they want, no matter their age or societal beliefs and expectations. Her message is clear: women are unstoppable! This message perfectly reflects the values at the very heart of L'Oréal Paris' mission," says Laetitia Toupet, Global Brand President, L'Oréal Paris. "More broadly, through the Lessons of Worth and the voices of our inspiring ambassadors, we want to help women take their rightful place in society, whether it is in a lab, on a film set, in the boardroom, or leading at home, and start a wider conversation about the issues that matter to them." 

For more than 50 years, L'Oréal Paris has championed beauty at every stage of life, fostering confidence and challenging societal preconceptions. Launched in 2020, Lessons of Worth continues to serve as a meaningful platform for the brand to celebrate the many dimensions of women's beauty and identity. Through ambassador stories, the initiative sparks global conversations that drive awareness and impact.
