NEW YORK — Drew Barrymore and the beauty brand Garnier have co-created a pioneering new campaign, set to create real buzz for the brand’s latest Whole Blend’s Sulfate Free haircare range.

After discovering Barrymore was an authentic fan of Whole Blends on Instagram, Garnier joined forces with the Hollywood sweetheart. For the first time ever, the brand has enlisted a celebrity as both a Brand Ambassador and Creative Director.

In August 2020, Barrymore shared her love of the Garnier Whole Blends Legendary Olive Shampoo and Conditioner with her Instagram community during a #BeautyJunkieWeek series.  In a detailed review she told fans “I got this because my daughter’s name is Olive. And it turns out that I am in love.” Drew’s love for Garnier doesn’t stop there, the Hollywood star also uses Garnier Micellar Water and is impressed by the brand’s Greener Beauty commitments.  This true passion for Garnier and beauty in general combined with Barrymore’s powerful influence and outstanding achievements in the film industry made her the perfect addition to the Garnier family to help the brand launch the new Whole Blends Sulfate Free Remedy Hair Care collection.

“We are delighted to welcome Drew to the Garnier brand. Together we have thrown out the rulebook when it comes to haircare advertising, creating a truly fresh approach which we hope connects with our consumers. Drew’s involvement has been phenomenal, both because she genuinely loves the products and also because of her creative input in the campaign,” said Adrien Koskas, Global Brand President for Garnier.

Working closely with the Garnier team, Drew helped lead creative for her first-ever TV advertising spot with the brand and will serve as the face of the new Whole Blends Sulfate Free Remedy Collection.  From concept development to scripting, Drew lent her creative and entrepreneurial talent, along with her fun-loving and free spirit, to bring to life the Garnier Whole Blends Sulfate Free Remedy Honey Treasures range, and the brand’s Greener Beauty commitments towards sustainability, to help Garnier Whole Blends make a positive impact on people and the planet.

“I truly fell in love with Garnier and I am thrilled to become part of the brand. I genuinely use their products, they make my hair feel amazing, and I had the most fun creating the campaign. Beauty can be boring, but we’ve turned it on its head! Garnier is a brand striving to be more sustainable while creating accessible beauty products that work.  Garnier Whole Blends provides clean and accessible hair care products that help people feel like their best selves while being free of nasties, and I dig that,” said Drew Barrymore.

Regarding her new role and the upcoming campaign, Drew shares: “I’ve been a fan of Garnier Whole Blends since trying the Olive products last summer, so when they approached me with the idea to help them launch the new clean beauty Sulfate Free Remedy Collection, I was all in.  The products are amazing and good for your hair, but what’s even better is that the brand is doing so many good things to give back and help make the planet greener, they have a total end-to-end approach to sustainability, Greener Beauty, and work with NGOs such as the Bee Conservancy, protecting 10 million bees, and that’s really important to me.”

The creative will begin running on February 15^th, 2021, and includes TV, digital and social media content.
