Episode notes

Lili Reinhart – actress, producer and newly-minted beauty entrepreneur – joins us this week! Best known for her role as Betty in Riverdale as well as her scene-stealing turn in Hustlers. In 2024, Lili added beauty founder to her resume with the launch of her acne-friendly skincare line, Personal Day.

Tune in as Lili shares how she learned to care for her acne-prone skin – and why she felt that the time was right to become a beauty founder in the sea of celeb launches. Plus, Lili tells us how she manages to keep her mental health in check - from becoming a Reiki master to exploring neuroplasticity along with hints on her campy turn in the witchy female-ensemble film, Forbidden Fruits, debuting at SXSW this month.

Tune in to hear about:

How Lili uses Personal Day’s viral hit products, the Unplug Blackhead-Melting Nose Strips and the “Trust Me on This” Hypochlorous Acid Spray, in her own routine – and the one product that she loves to test-drive on her actor boyfriend, Jack Hughes
Lili’s exact fave eye shadows, foundations and lippies in her makeup bag right now
How Lili is still learning to make peace with her hair, and the products she trusts to care for alopecia
How Lili is using her role as producer to mentor up-and-coming talents, like co-star Lola Tung
Stay tuned to the end for a fun game of “Forbidden or Fruit” - inspired Lili’s latest film - where the actress shares her dos and don’ts in fashion and beauty
