Netizens question if NewJeans Minji is suitable to promote Chanel's anti-aging skincare product

AKP STAFF

Netizens are discussing whether an 'anti-aging' skincare product was suitable for Minji to endorse.

On an online forum, netizens are embroiled in a lively debate over whether Chanel's 'anti-aging' serum was an appropriate endorsement choice for the NewJeans member. Ever since her appointment as the luxury brand's new ambassador, Minji has been endorsing an anti-aging serum that provides treatment and care for "five different aging mechanisms" within the skin.

Some netizens are arguing that Minji, who is only nineteen and part of the rookie 04-line, is "too young" to promote an anti-aging product.

However, other netizens argued that beauty brands have been strategically targeting younger customers with their new breed of anti-aging products. They argue that females in their twenties now often initiate methods of preserving and enhancing their youthful aesthetic in an attempt to delay visible signs of aging.

Meanwhile, the original uploader of the post suggested that Chanel's Hydra line, known for its emphasis on moisturization, would have been a more fitting choice for Minji.

Reactions include:

"I love NewJeans but I don't understand why the fashion and beauty fields are becoming more and more extreme and wild"
"Are they saying that women have to start putting on those things at that age?"
"I don't think Chanel itself is a good fit for her"
"Are they saying that women will start looking younger like Minji lol"
"An anti-aging line for someone just starting out their twenties..."
"I wish that people would advertise products that are well-suited to their age rang..."
"Lol my friend also said that she can't understand why Minji has to promote an anti-aging product"
"An anti-aging ad for such a young woman..."
"Are you kidding me....an anti-aging product for NewJeans?"
"Well, I don't know if Minji became a Chanel model because she suit the image to begin with"
"Too young to be a luxury brand model in the first place!"
"How come they didn't give her the Hydra line??"
"An 'early anti-aging' treatment, they say, in the makeup field these days..."

at 19, this may be a bit young to promote anti aging products.
