“Act IV combines my two greatest passions, acting and beauty, to allow every woman to feel like the star of her own life.” – Danielle Lauder

Act IV, is a limited-edition makeup collection created by Danielle and inspired by the beauty of old Hollywood. Act IV is both a cinematic reference and to Danielle as a fourth-generation Lauder Family member. It combines Danielle’s beauty legacy with her passion for acting and love of Hollywood glamour. An actress, herself, Danielle has had to master the art of makeup for different lighting as she goes from audition to being in front of the camera. Act IV is inspired by the concept of looking beautiful in any light, with glow-enhancing skin perfectors, dreamy pastels, and statement lipsticks that allow every woman to feel like a star.

Growing up in NYC, Danielle moved to LA to pursue her acting career shortly after graduating from Northwestern University, where she studied film and theater. After playing the lead in her first film, The Charnel House, a psychological thriller, Danielle went on to star in the dramatic thriller The Stanford Prison Experiment and the comedy short I Love Lucy. Danielle is inspired by a diverse array of female role models as she shapes her acting career and her life in Hollywood. One of her most important role models is her great grandmother, Estée Lauder, who once had dreams of gracing the silver screen before starting her global beauty business. Danielle’s passion for beauty and glamour stems from her deep admiration of Estée, as well as her grandmother, Evelyn.

And, in January, Danielle Lauder, the actress and great-granddaughter of Estée Lauder, will launch a limited-edition, seven-item makeup collection with the brand. Based in LA, she has named her collection Act IV — a nod to both her heritage as a fourth generation Lauder, and to her acting career.

Dani – as she is known to family and friends, declined to comment further about the line before its launch, but in a statement released by the company, she said “Act IV is a perfect blend of my heritage in beauty and my passion for acting, taking inspiration from my life in Hollywood to provide multifaceted makeup products for every woman to add a touch of glamour to her day.”  We hear the collection will consist of seven products and will launch via select influencer and retailer partnerships.

A graduate of Northwestern University, Dani studied film and theater, and has had starring roles in The Charnel House and The Stanford Prison Experiment. In 2018, she had a role in a short film Estée Lauder produced with global ambassador Karlie Kloss, and just recently starred in a music video called Bubble Gum on Count the Clock.

She is also a supporter of the Breast Cancer Research Foundation founded in 1993 by her grandmother, Evelyn H. Lauder, which has raised more than $500 million for lifesaving research.

The future is bright for this rising star.
