Neutrogena has released a statement in response to criticism following the death of actress and activist Hayden Panettiere. The skincare company pledged to invest more in supporting women, especially those dealing with postpartum depression. Panettiere expressed feeling unsupported by Neutrogena during her last contract renewal, which occurred more than a decade after she began her association with the brand.
The company acknowledged their mistake, stating that it did not reflect their values. Panettiere was discovered in cardiac arrest shortly before her death on Sunday, August 28, 2022. According to the Greenville County Coroner’s Office, there were no signs of trauma contributing to her demise, and her cause and manner of death remain under investigation.
Born in New York on August 21, 1989, Panettiere embarked on her career at 11 months old and became a household name after her breakthrough role in the superhero drama Heroes from 2006 to 2010. She was also a vocal environmental advocate, frequently participating in protests to raise awareness about dolphin conservation.
