Beloved actress Kristin Chenoweth has made us smile for years through her parts in "Wicked," "Schmigadoon!" and more. But now she's taking on a new role that you might not have expected from her: "Partner-in-cheer" with the Command brand! And, as we at Shop TODAY know well, one of the best ways to spread cheer during the holiday season is with a thoughtful present. In that spirit, we asked Chenoweth to share a few of her favorite products as part of our Shopping Diaries series — many of which make great gifts!

Kristin Chenoweth on gifts, Crocs and the drugstore find she says 'works' on wrinkles

Nivea Shimmer Lip Care Moisturizing Lip Balm

When your chapped lips need some nourishment, but you still want a glammed pout, Chenoweth knows just the thing to reach for. "I love the Nivea [lip balm] in pink shimmer," she says. "It makes me look like I sort of have on makeup when I don't want to do anything."

"Another thing I use that they make is new, it's Bio-Oil lotion and oil, so it's two-in-one," she says. "When I get out of the shower, I slather that on before I go to bed, and my skin is doing so good."

Command Clear Medium Wall Hooks

Chenoweth's must-haves for hanging holiday decor are Command's wall hooks. "I'm a fan of the clear hooks because you can't see them," she says. "They're great, they hold the lights beautifully and you can't see them. So those are great gifts and a great gift for yourself."

"Not That Fancy" by Reba McEntire

"I love autobiographies," says the actress and avid reader. "A friend of mine just released hers, and I've read it and it's fantastic. It's Reba McEntire's book, 'Not That Fancy.' First of all, it has great easy recipes in it. For people like me who don't love to spend a lot of time in the kitchen, it's really fun. But all her anecdotes are just hilarious."

When it comes to the hotly-debated shoe brand, Crocs, it's clear which side of the debate Chenoweth is on. "People, these are comfortable, they're great for your feet, get them," she says. The star has a few limited-edition pairs, but you can't go wrong with the bestselling classic style.
