“LANEIGE is honored to name Chloe Kim as our first-ever North American brand ambassador because she embodies the spirit and power of K-Beauty and the beauty of feeling confident in your own skin,” said Bradley Horowitz, CEO, AmorePacific North America. “Chloe has the perfect formula for inspiring women around the world. We admire her determination to keep striving to reach new heights and we are thrilled that our brand will accompany her on her journey.”

Your Personal 100 campaign will follow Chloe Kim on her journey to the 2018 Olympic Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea. As part of the campaign, Chloe will inspire and engage fans through social media posts by sharing her Personal 100 stories and LANEIGE K-Beauty secrets using #YourPersonal100.

Chloe has changed the face of snowboarding and always puts her best face forward thanks to her family, friends and a skincare routine that is based on tradition and nourished by K-Beauty products. For Chloe and her mom, Boran, using LANEIGE is a tradition that is passed on with pride and love from one generation to the next. Chloe knows the importance of staying hydrated and protected from the sun and other elements when she is on the slopes and learned from her mom that LANEIGE can help keep her skin healthy and glowing so she can concentrate on bringing home the gold.

“My skin has seen some extreme weather and I’m so glad I have LANEIGE to keep it looking and feeling awesome,” said Kim. “First thing in the morning I use my LANEIGE cleanser, toner, emulsion, Water Bank Serum and Gel Cream, and before bed I relax and recharge with my LANEIGE Water Sleeping Mask. It’s like my treat to me!”
