In an Instagram Story about the announcement, James said: “Charlotte, I love you and I am so incredibly excited and honored to be your new skin care muse. I couldn’t be prouder.”
James stars in the newest photo and video campaign for the moisturizer. She dazzles in a sequin gown and diamond earrings with her blonde hair in loose, glamorous waves.
As for her makeup, the Pam & Tommy star’s complexion looks positively radiant. Teamed with a glossy lip and a subtly smoky eye makeup look, the star looks fresh off the red carpet.
For those new to Magic Cream, which rings in at $100, it’s time to get acquainted. The name comes from years of celebrities asking for “Charlotte’s Magic Cream.” Before it was actually a product, Tilbury would mix up her moisturizer to find the perfect formula for the runway to the red carpet.

Magic Cream was formally launched in 2013 and remains a backstage staple for prepping models’ and actresses’ skin before fashion shows and red carpet events.
James is among those who swear by it. “Every time I apply Magic Cream on Lily, she tells me how she cannot live without it,” Tilbury tells Stylish.
“I have worked with Lily for years and I know from studying her skin just how much long days working on set, traveling around the world and attending red carpet events affects her complexion. As an actress, she needs a moisturizer that retexturizes, plumps, smooths and adds glow to her skin so that her makeup glides on and looks flawless, and is protected under harsh camera lights.”
