(By Carmichael Phillip)
Summary
The new Neutrogena commercials in 2025 feature Tate McRae as the primary face of the brand’s Hydro Boost campaign, while actress/singer Hailee Steinfeld continues to appear in related Neutrogena content for the Collagen Bank line.
Tate McRae serves as the Global Brand Ambassador for Neutrogena’s Hydro Boost skincare range, starring in the “Metaphor” TV spot that blends youthful authenticity with dermatologist‑led science messaging, while Steinfeld’s ongoing role focuses on Collagen Bank products.
Hailee Steinfeld’s Neutrogena Legacy — and What’s New
Hailee Steinfeld has indeed appeared in Neutrogena campaigns—particularly as the face of their Collagen Bank line. In 2024, she starred in the “Collagen Banker: Trust Me” TV spot, positioning herself as a playful yet informative ambassador for skincare that addresses collagen loss in a modern, relatable way.
However, as of early 2025, the latest Neutrogena campaign does not feature Hailee Steinfeld. Instead, the spotlight has shifted to Canadian pop star Tate McRae, who was named the new Global Ambassador for Neutrogena’s Hydro Boost range—especially its Water Gel product—celebrating its tenth anniversary and ushering in a “Beauty to a Science” brand positioning.
Meet the 2025 Face: Tate McRae Takes Over the Hydro Boost Campaign
Tate McRae—currently 21 years old—embodies the fresh, youthful energy that Neutrogena is leaning into for this next chapter. Her appointment as Global Ambassador was officially announced in February 2025, aligning with the Hydro Boost Water Gel’s milestone tenth anniversary.
In interviews with People, McRae expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, mentioning that she’s used the Hydro Boost moisturizer for years, especially during tours where simple, effective skincare is a must. She also described how “overthinking” can affect skin—an authentic sentiment she brings to the campaign.
So… Is Hailee Steinfeld in the 2025 Neutrogena Commercial?
To be clear—Hailee Steinfeld is not in the 2025 Neutrogena campaign. The current advertising focuses on Tate McRae and the Hydro Boost line, while Hailee’s involvement was centered around the Collagen Bank product in 2024.
That said, Hailee’s past collaboration remains memorable, and she continues to be recognized as part of Neutrogena’s extended ambassadorial history. But at least through early 2025, she is not fronting the brand’s newest campaign.
