COVERGIRL announced Maye Musk, legendary fashion and beauty model, as their latest addition to the lineup of fierce women leading the charge in breaking boundaries in beauty.
Maye just walked the Fashion Week runways at age 69.
"With wearing makeup a part of my job as a model, one might think I'd get tired of it, but I absolutely love it. I've had the benefit of working with a lot of wonderful artists through the years, and it's a fascinating process: you start as a blank canvas and then a transformation occurs, but there's always a very real and honest piece of me there, too," says Maye Musk. "I think that's one thing that's kept me working in this industry for so long, my interest in self-representation. It's a big part of my role as a dietitian, too – helping people feel happy, healthy and confident exactly as they are. And recently, I've become so much more engaged in social media, particularly Instagram, which is yet another way I can show people the many different sides of myself."
"Maye Musk is not only a timeless beauty, but a visionary who has always followed her own path, creating new opportunities and paving the way for so many others who might not meet the industry standard of 'model,' but are truly beautiful in every regard," says Ukonwa Ojo, SVP, COVERGIRL. "This is exactly what COVERGIRL is all about: owning your identity and proudly sharing with the world all the facets that make you, you. Maye is an affirmation of the power and importance of diversity and inclusivity in the world of Beauty. She is unstoppable and, together, we're just getting started!"
