Images of the 38-year-old went viral last year, with many then speculating that she’d had some kind of facelift. One aesthetic doctor even made a TikTok that went on to be quoted by tabloids, which guessed that she’d had $300k worth of plastic surgery.
As part of her new Elle cover story, Lindsay was interviewed by SNL star Chloe Fineman, who has a cameo in the upcoming sequel Freakier Friday. In it, Lindsay said that she’s developing a new beauty line because she’s “crazy about [her] skin and health.”
Though she affirmed that “everyone does Botox,” when asked for her skincare “secrets,” Lindsay said, “Oh, God, I don’t even know how to answer that. I drink this juice every morning. It’s like carrot, ginger, lemon, olive oil, apple. I also drink a lot of green tea, a lot of water. I’m a big pickled beets person, so I put them in almost everything.”
“My skin care is very specific. I’m trying out some serums now that I’m doing — I’m testing them. Also, I’m a big believer in ice-cold water on your face when you wake up. I drink lemon juice a lot; I also put tons of chia seeds in my water. Eye patches, I do every morning. I’m into lasers,” she continued.
Adding that she once tried the microneedling treatment Morpheus8 but found her skin to be too “thin” for it, she explained, “My skin changed after having my son. It got really sensitive. That’s what really made me change my whole routine and diet and everything. I did blood tests, and I was like, ‘I want to know everything I’m allergic to.’ So I cut everything out, and that’s kind of when everything started to change for me.”
Lindsay’s publicist then interjected to say, “The problem is…the second she looks any different, they assume she had her face lifted at 37 or 38, that she ripped apart this or that. It’s so mean.” The actor affirmed what she had to say, responding, “I’m like, when? With what time? Where?”
Her publicist then continued, “I tried to figure that out, Linds, in the last three years, when you had time to do anything, because I know your schedule. So the haters can hate and be jealous. It just sucks that that’s where they go with women in today’s world. Women can’t just look good to look good and change their lifestyle to be more healthy.” Subsequently, Lindsay said, “You just have to do it and ignore everyone else.”
