Nicole Kidman shows her playful side as she is staring in a commercial for Melbourne-based Swisse Wellness Vitamins.
Nicole Kidman, 45, is seen picking herbs from the garden while playfully dance-kicking to an up tempo guitar track – geared toward projecting an idealized vision of healthy living.
In the slow-moving montage, Nicole Kidman can be seen eating a low glycemic green apple as she sits in an idyllic vegetable garden in the countryside.
She is later depicted toting a basket full of garden herbs, and at one point even carries around a bunch of freshly dug up carrots still sporting their green stalks.
Underscoring the stream of dreamy images was not only the aforementioned guitar track but a gentle cadence metered out by a hand clapping.
The 30 second spot relies heavily on Nicole Kidman’s ability to convey a better, healthier, life – made possible by proper supplementation.
And the vitamin brand could not have chosen a more vibrant and carefree-seeming ambassador.

Kidman was the picture of glowing health and effortless joy as she pranced around the well-groomed garden – at times playing just like a child in the lush wonderland.
She has almost magically maintained an enviably youthful appearance, which may be due to a daily routine of vitamin ingestion.
Adorned in pink shorts and cowboy boots Nicole Kidman shook out her long blonde hair in various snippets of spontaneous dancing.
She even demonstrated a karate move in the pathway between an herb plot and a row of sunflowers.
Discussing her partnership with Swisse, Nicole Kidman said: “I joined Swisse because I wanted to help bring awareness to the importance of living a healthy lifestyle in a busy, often stressful world.”
“I love feeling healthy and fit. They are wonderful attributes of the Australian way of life – and I am a very proud Australian.”
Swisse CEO Radek Sali stated that the vitamin seller was “absolutely thrilled” to have Nicole Kidman as their official ambassador.
Meanwhile, Swisse, according to the Chicago Tribune, has big plans for what Nicole Kidman can do for them and are banking on her to help them reach a projected goal of $50 million in U.S. sales in the first half of 2013.
And even more astonishingly, Swisse expect to rake in $500 million annually by 2015 through products ranging from skin and hair care to multivitamins.
The Melbourne based company began carrying their health products in U.S. pharmacy chain Walgreens in February.

Salma Hayek has admitted that she achieves her skin perfection by never washing her face when she wakes up in the morning.
Salma Hayek, 46, looks much younger than her age, and she attributes her less than hygienic regime as the secret behind her skin perfection.
Speaking to Kate Garraway on ITV’1 Lorraine, Salma Hayek said: “OK, one tip – always wash your face at night. Clean it.
“You don’t have to wash it, but you have to clean it really, really well at night.”

The actress said: “One strange tip – don’t wash it in the morning, at all, never. Because at night your skin is rebuilding some of the oils that you need to keep your skin young, and it balances the PH.
“So in the morning if you take them off – you can splash it with water, do something mild – but you don’t want to get rid of that. And if your skin is dirty in the morning, it means you didn’t clean well at night.”
With one secret out the bag, Salma Hayek was happy to share even more of her knowledge on maintaining a youthful appearance.
The mother-of-one developed her own range of beauty products that she uses all the time and only sells in one store over in America.
Salma Hayek said: “I’m not very trim, but I don’t have as many wrinkles as probably I should. But I do use, I use my products but you don’t sell them, I just sell them in only one drug store in the States.
“And I do a lot of that for 10 years, and I’ve been using that stuff even since before, so I use creams, it’s creams.”
The Mexican born actor stars in new Oliver Stone movie Savages, alongside John Travolta, Benicio Del Toro and Taylor Kitsch.
The big budget thriller tells the tale of warring drug cartels and the violence that the narcotics business contributes to society.
Salma Hayek said of her role in the film: “I am the queen of the most important drug cartel in Mexico.
“I think it’s important people see that for people who consume drugs and they think, ‘There’s nothing wrong with just a little bit, I’m not going to die from it’, you might not die from it, but you buying it – for that to get to you, a lot of people died.
“So the people that use drugs somehow contribute to this violence and this business.”
The secret behind Angelina Jolie’s flawless face has been revealed as she is thought to be a fan of Dragon’s Blood, Rodial’s popular sculpting facial gel.
Dubbed the “Liquid Facelift”, Dragon’s Blood works by adding essential volume to hollow skin.
It claims to plump, sculpt and lift the complexion whilst protecting against ageing and reducing skin sagging.
Celebrity facialist Nuz Shugaa, who works with Rachel Weiz and Amanda Seyfried, as well as Angelina Jolie, says that the mother-of-six relies on the gel to maintain her youthful appearance.
“Angelina needs to keep her skin plump and hydrated to maintain the youthful radiance she is famed for,” says Nuz Shugaa.
“Lack of sleep, hectic lifestyle with extensive travelling all contribute to depleted levels of hyaluronic acid – which result in the skin looking tired, dry and dull.
“This incredibly ageing to all women in their thirties.
“I recommended the Dragon’s Blood’s sculpting gel to Angelina as it gives her a dewy complexion (for appearance of sleep!) with added volume which define her beautiful high cheek bones.”

Angelina Jolie, who is currently preparing to marry long-term love Brad Pitt, has apparently been using the product since February.
Dragon’s Blood, which costs $115, is made from the red sap of the sangre de drago tree and sold-out within minutes when it first launched earlier this year.
It proved so popular that there were 20,000 eager customers on the waiting list before it went on sale, with Harvey Nichols reporting “queues out the door”.
It is considered a less-invasive alternative to fillers, creating a youthful complexion without the needless and avoiding the common problem known as “pillow face”, where the cheeks look “inflated”.
“With our new Dragon’s Blood serum, women including our celebrity fans, are able to regain the youthful fullness in their face,” says a spokesperson for Rodial.
“Age, environmental damage and demanding lifestyles all take their toll and age us prematurely, with wrinkles and sagging skin around the eyes and cheeks being some of the first signs.
“Before now the only way to counteract these unattractive symptoms, was to inject fillers into the cheek to restore the original plumpness of the face.”
Dragon’s Blood alleviates the need for such cosmetic work as it plumps facial hollows and “orbital troughs” under and around the eyes, as well as for cheek volume and contouring of the chin, forehead and nose.
Lady Gaga also uses cream and reportedly used it as she prepared for the Golden Globes earlier this year.
During independent trials, 92% of volunteers saw an increase in skin elasticity over three months, while 72% also experienced a reduction in skin sagging.
Results also showed that those who used Dragon’s Blood found their skin was dramatically defined and volumised with firmer skin and improved tonicity around the jaw line and cheek bones.
