Big Picture: Chris Noth, Biotherm Homme

by Janine on 15 March 2010 · 32 comments

Staff is suffering from an attack of raging jealousy. If you haven’t heard, Big actor Chris Noth of Sex and The City and “The Good Wife” is the new face of Biotherm Homme in North America. I met him last week to chat about his association with the skincare brand as well as his approach and attitude to face care. Check tomorrow’s Metro News for the story and a round-up of look-better-stuffs-for-guys, including a couple of Noth’s favourites.

In the meantime, feel free to gaze longingly at this photo. Honestly, while I respect his work, I wasn’t a swoony, Chris-Noth-super-fan type before meeting him. But in person, his skin looks a-mazing — he wore no makeup for our talk. In fact, when we were introduced I blurted, “You look fantastic!” like I didn’t expect it (oops). He didn’t take it badly, and happily was comfortable with my taking a buddy photo post chat. In the very first snap, I got this. I don’t really care about my dorky hair or foolish grin because that sexy twinkle in Noth’s eye is killing me. (Just for you, the image has larger-than-usual dimensions — click on it once, then again when the screen changes to get the Big picture.) And yes — maybe you caught my tweets last week — this photo is my new desktop image.

I can’t even type any more. *swoon*

Biotherm Homme is available at drugstores and via biotherm.ca .

What a pro, huh? I need to learn how to do that!

LOVE the shot!

Me too — clearly! Thx, R!

This is great! Boy…he really loves the camera!

Yes, he does — looks like although he’s happy to have his photo taken with some girl, he’s actually flirting with the photographer. How fun for me that I was both??

Not to imply that he was flirty for the interview. He was relaxed, but not flirty.

So NOT a Big fan either (Aiden 4EVA!) but yes this pic makes me swoon as well.

I think it’s a magic pic. I got swoony when I saw it, not at the interview (despite my expression). I liked Aiden better as BF material too, but for Carrie I think Big was a better partner — he’d understand her fashion-passion better, which is so much a part of the character. For me, though, I now think I need an opportunity to buddy-photo John Corbett and compare.

I’m not usually prone to envy but that photo is amazing.
He loves the camera and the camera loves him very mach!
Must have been great to be able to know the man behind the Mr.Big face.

Well, it was certainly nice to meet him, and dang, his skin really looked terrific. I’m thinking, though, that while he accepts that he has to take care of his skin, and he genuinely likes the product line, talking about face cream and shower gel all day long might have been a bit of a trial! And then folks chased him around the cocktail party afterward with cameras — such is the price, I guess!

Lesa 15 March 2010 at 4:00 pm

Yes, buddy photo with Corbett! Someone get him a face contract of some kind!

Janine 15 March 2010 at 10:34 pm

Hmmm. Whose ear can we put that bug in? Neither Neutrogena Men nor Nivea Men have celeb faces… let’s get Nora on it for Neutrogena!

Wynne 15 March 2010 at 4:06 pm

Your skin looks amazing, J…much better than Chris Noth’s for sure!

Janine 15 March 2010 at 10:40 pm

Aww thanks, Wynne! To be honest, I’m surprised at how nice it looks in the photo — I’m wearing only a bit of concealer under my eyes and around the base of my nose, plus a little MAC Blot Powder in my t-zone. My routine’s been different for a few weeks, though. I’ve actually been exfoliating less and using a Bioderma waterless cleanser, La Roche-Posay Derm AOX serum and Neostrata Daytime Smoothing Cream Level 2. Plus the natural light in that room was fabulous :-)

I think the foolish grin is the best part!

You’re so beautiful, Janine – and you don’t even know it. I think you might be a dork.

Thanks, You. Heart.

Oh, I wish I was the one in the picture with him! Envious of your job… Dream on!

you look exceptionally good in the picture but I’d just like to cover it up with my own. P

Janine 15 March 2010 at 10:42 pm

Totally do it! Copy the image and slot your own face in — that’s what Photoshop is for!

Hmmm. Maybe I should run a put-your-face-here contest?

Staff is not the only one suffering from an attack of raging jealousy. You lucky, lucky girl.

Janine 15 March 2010 at 10:47 pm

I cannot deny it, Valerie. But I’ll tell you — had I not got this photo, I’d be less chuffed. I took a second shot because at first all I could see in my camera screen is that he’s half hiding behind my head. But when I reviewed later, I realized this was hands-down the better of the two — his expression makes it.

Finally after all the tweets we get to see the pic, and it doesn’t disappoint ; ) You have a fun life!

Reply

Janine 15 March 2010 at 10:48 pm

Yay! Sometimes it really is fun, true, Monica. But then there’s the deadline part… *grin*

Lesa 16 March 2010 at 9:26 am

OMG the fact that you felt the need to outline your latest skincare regime in detail to Wynne is hilarious.

Reply

Janine 16 March 2010 at 9:52 am

I’ve had a lot of great comments on my skin lately, so I’ve been thinking on why — the routine must have something to do with it, so I shared!

Michelle (BeautyEditor.ca) 16 March 2010 at 10:59 pm

OMG he is NUZZLING you! I’ve got to post mine. I’m with Kate and he looks so ANGRY – like he wanted to peace out on that place asap. Oh well… I guess we were kinda paparazzi-ish about it.

I didn’t know until I looked closely at the photo! Honestly, this photo is a career highlight. Thank you Chris Noth.

Looking forward to seeing yours — love your teaser there!

DAYUM! You know I wasn’t a Chris Noth fan either until this photo. My god the man looks sexy here… and you look awesome. No dorky hair that I can see =D
