Who’s the boss?
Joining Divergent actor Theo James as the new face of Hugo Boss’s Hugo Man fragrance is 29-year-old hottie Zac Efron. In the spirit of being a boss, he gives us some life advice.
LIFE
"Move. Shake things up. That’s what makes life an adventure. I think that’s where I am in my life, so I can relate to the idea of the campaign."
#YOURTIMEISNOW
"I believe in the fresh potential of every day. I think ‘Your Time is Now’ is a green-light for our generation. Everybody procrastinates at some point in their life. I fall victim to it too. But the days I value the most are the ones when I remember to get up, go, take action, and take that first step."
HEROES
I admire Bruce Lee, Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, but my grandfather and my dad are my real heroes. My grandpa is 86, and he still skis and swims every day. The point is that all of these guys give 110 percent every single day, and that’s why they’re my inspiration."
OVERCOMING CHALLENGES
"Life is a challenge and it’s full of obstacles, but they're really just opportunities to rise above. If you think about it like that, then life is just a fun game."
Precious Water
Micellar water has been around for the last three decades, but it has only recently become every makeup artist’s must-have and busy girl’s beauty staple. This is because it's gentle yet does the job of removing dirt, excess oil and makeup so effortlessly without stripping the skin of its natural oils. To top it all off, it leaves skin feeling fresh after.
