Emma Watson flattered by Lancome role

Emma Watson was "incredibly flattered" be asked to be the new face of Lancome.

The 'Harry Potter' actress was named as the ambassadress for the cosmetics firm earlier this year and says it's a dream come true because the brand has so much history.

She said: "I was incredibly flattered to be asked to be the ambassadress. I think Lancome has so much class and style and history."

The 21-year-old beauty shot a new campaign for Lancome in March and she's very proud of her work.

Speaking of the campaign she said: "I hope it brings a sense of optimism and fun and a sense of youthful energy life is just kind of like magical and full of surprise. I wanted the campaign's love story to be about that. There's something modern but also timeless about that kind of story."

Emma was chosen to become the new face of Lancome because she brings a "fresh spirit" to the brand.

Youcef Nabi, president of Lancôme International, said: "Thanks to her charm, romanticism and her incredible modernity, Emma Watson has become the icon of her generation. We are delighted by this new collaboration with Emma, who brings a fresh spirit to Lancome."
