Lacey Chabert is the Queen of Christmas in the Hallmark world, and now she's breaking out of her festive mould to star in the new Hallmark+ series, Paris Is Always a Good Idea.
Based on the hit 2020 novel from Jenn McKinlay. Lacey stars as Chelsea Martin, a work-focused non-profit executive who travels to Paris to secure a major donation. It premieres on July 30 2026, so what better time than now for us to delve into just how Lacey looks so incredible on screen?
I can hardly believe I'm saying this but the Mean Girls actress is 43-years-old (yes, really) and I think she could definitely get away with saying she's in her late twenties. I immediately wanted to know all of her skincare must-haves, because with skin that good, I need tips. I may be younger than her but my skin doesn't look it.

I too am a fan of the skin tint - it's not as heavy as foundation but gives you a bit more coverage than a tinted moisturizer. Talking about the brand Ilia, she said: "I love this clean beauty brand. I use the ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint, $48 / £42, which gives me a luminous glow under The Ethereal Baked Face Palette blush, bronzer and highlighter for my everyday look."
I had to try it - it's Lacey approved after all - and I was shocked by the result. I was surprised by how lightweight it feels on the skin. I applied with a beauty blender, but I'm sure it's just as good when used with a brush or with your fingers. But I would say, as it's a bit runny, it might get a little messy. It comes in 30 shades, too.

With non-nano zinc oxide the tint provides weightless mineral protection from UVA, UVB, UVC, and blue light with no white cast. It‘s free of silicones, oil, fragrance, and chemical sunscreen, and clinically tested to be non-comedogenic and safe for sensitive skin - this is great for anyone with enlarged pores or oily skin.
My only negative about the Ilia Skin Tint is the scent, I didn't love it, and have noticed a few comments on the scent in the reviews online, but it's not enough to make me not use it. After all, my skin looked great.

I’ve been using that forever and it’s great for my skin. I’m always trying to teach my daughter to wash her face and to be careful what she puts on her skin. What else? It’s all very simple. I love a good sheet mask here and there for some pampering, eye patches when my eyes are really puffy, or a roller. The ice roller is something I’ve gotten into recently. I feel like that helps with puffiness when I’m tired."
On Instagram, Lacey often raves about Tula - a brand she's a brand ambassador for. The Tula Skincare Rose Glow & Get It Cooling & Brightening Eye Balm, $32.50, is her most recent must-have. It's an eye treatment crafted with plant-based retinol alternatives. It's basically a balm stick that you swipe over the under-eye, and you get a cooling sensation. It hydrates the skin while leaving it looking brighter, tighter and firmer.
