Scarlett Johansson on becoming a skin care mogul

    Actress Scarlett Johansson has played many roles in her career – and now, the Tony-winner and two-time Oscar-nominee has taken on another: launching her new line of products, called The Outset, designed for people with sensitive skin (like hers). She talks with correspondent Tracy Smith about her skin struggles, and how husband Colin Jost has been a “guinea pig” for her products.

    1. I had acne all my life until post menopause. Covering up every morning is an effort. Nothing really works, even laser, only minimize with good products that doesn’t dry your face. But now laser really helped renewed my skin and no one knew I had acne.

    2. CBS Sunday Morning is pure fluff. But it's pleasant harmless fluff. We need a little fluff in our lives with all the insanity happening.

    3. I’d rather hear the story of an indie brand than another celebrity who is already worth hundreds of millions, looking to cash in by attaching their name to something they aren’t truly passionate about.

    4. I'd never buy her stuff, I want ingredients to effect change. She'd look incredible if you rubbed motor oil on her face. If it doesn't stimulate collagen, I'm not interested. I'm sure it's simple and hydrating and moisturizing. So?

    5. Eat your heart out Blake. Scarlett is everything that Blake Lively wishes She was and doesn't even get close to. She's a nice person. Great actress a great relationship with your husband. and now she's getting into skincare. While Blake's stuff is going down the tubes cause she's an awful person.

    6. I'll bet Johansson $$ that her endocrine system will calm down when she stops consuming gluten.
      (Doesn't negate value of her skin care products…. )

    7. Oh my gosh, the perfect woman!. I’m old so I can get away with saying things that are inappropriate. But, Scarlett is amazing in a myriad of ways. She is so energetic, so funny, so enterprising, such an amazing actress, and of course, the obvious physical beauty. She proves the point that women don’t have to have these cutsy little noses to be beautiful. Everything about her is classic beauty. Colin Jost is the luckiest man on the planet. Waking up to Scarlett every morning, holy.s**t. Of course, with Colin being one of the funniest men on the planet, he would probably say something like “aside from the snoring”. I’m sure she doesn’t snore. Love this feature.

    8. Had severe acne as well eventually on Accutane, twice, which worked. I had a wall full of cleansers and mud mask products growing up. What would work?
      It does affect your self-esteem and you never really feel attractive even though you probably are.
      Point here is, you eventually learn skin care a lot more than others.
      Go Scarlett…

    9. I have no idea who she is in real life. I can make no comment about anything about her life or her relationships, but on the internet, after watching this video for a few seconds. I am an expert on who she is and what her life is about! Way to go and good for her and her stuff!

    10. It’s so funny to me. She is the woman Blake Lively wishes she was. Scarlett, you dodged the bullet of your life by divorcing R Reynolds!!!

    11. Dear lord. This ends my relationship to Sunday Morning. This is a blatant advertisement for a celebrity product. What I used to love about Sunday Morning is that it would show the joy and wonder of normal life. I don't have room for this. We break up.

    12. I’m an Independent Latino. Another celebrity who’s aiming billions. Please stick to acting. In 2026, we should all know by now what you eat, affects the skin – Plain and simple. No need of all these chemical products even though it reads harsh chemicals. 2:18 it’s called foundation and corrector with 2 gallons of make-up, Botox – the my 2011 flatscreen TV can catch all the bumps on her cheeks. Go on be transparent and true blue. It’s like Evelyn Longoria selling tequila to be a billionaire mark. 😮

    13. This is a waste of time and money. Diet, sunscreen, sleep on your back if your health permits, and a good skincare routine… there are way too many products out there. She's lovely, but this is all about wanting more money.
