Indian model, actress and activist Nidhi Sunil has been unveiled as the latest international spokesperson for L’Oréal Paris, and is the first Indian model to become a global ambassador for the French beauty brand.

Sunil, a former environmental lawyer who's spoken out about colourism and gendercide within Indian culture, said of the appointment 'I’m so happy to join the L’Oréal Paris Family - to speak out for the self-worth we must all believe in to succeed, especially when others try to tell us differently. To me, beauty lies in the full power of your own voice and your belonging in the world. All of our stories are worth hearing. Our worth is our birthright'.
