Olay Appoints Male Celebrity As Brand Ambassador In China

April 12, 2016: 12:00 AM EST
Women's skincare brand Olay’s recruitment of local male celebrity Li Yifeng as the brand’s ambassador in China is not a wise move, according to Resonance China executive Jerry Clode. Brand owner Procter & Gamble also chose Taiwanese actor Darren Wang and Hong Kong TV host Wong Cho Lam as endorsers of SK-II cosmetics and Tide laundry brand. As part of P&G’s partnership with e-commerce company JD.com, the three male celebrities formed a “boyband of six” with other male celebrities Lu Han for Clear toothpaste, Eddie Pang for Head and Shoulders shampoo, and Ning Zetao for Gillette.
