Gillette Venus names ambassadors ahead of Olympic, Paralympic Games Paris 2024

Gillette Venus is partnering with several athletes ahead of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 and Paralympic Games Paris 2024. 

The beauty brand, which is the Official Razor of Team USA, is working with several U.S. swimmers this summer, including Lydia Jacoby, Anastasia Pagonis and Torri Huske, among others. 

"As a competitive swimmer, my pre-race routine starts with my shave,” said Lydia Jacoby, U.S. Olympic Gold Medalist. “As someone with sensitive skin, I have always trusted Venus to give me the smoothest shave without irritation so I can focus on swimming.”

To celebrate these new partnerships and countdown to the games, Venus also is debuting a campaign features Jacoby and Pagonis, which highlights a new Gold Razor.

“It’s important for me to feel comfortable with and trust the products that I use every day, and a razor is no exception,” said Anastasia Pagonis, U.S. Paralympic Gold Medalist. “When I reach for Venus in my shower, I’m confident that I am going to get the smooth, close shave that I need to be competition ready.”

Other athletes who are working with the brand include U.S. Olympic Gold Medalist Abbey Weitzeil, U.S. Olympian Erica Sullivan and Olympic hopeful Kelly Pash, who will create social content that coincides with its ongoing campaign.
