Can Lili Reinhart's Skincare Line Rise Above the Celebrity Brand Monotony? We Think So

personal day skincare review
Design: theSkimm | Images: Alexandra Napoli
November 7, 2025

Products you buy through our links may earn us a commission. Oh, and if something's out of stock, oops, it was there (and all prices were accurate) at time of publication.

Welcome to Skimm Tested, a series where we put viral products to the test and give you our honest, unfiltered reviews.

What We Tested…

  • Trust Me on This Hypochlorous Acid Spray, $27

  • Emotional Support Lip Balm, $24

  • Even Keel Resurfacing Peel, $34

  • All Covered Brushed Blemish Patches, $19

  • Dive Deep Mevalonic Moisturizer, $38

  • Doing the Work Salicylic Acid Acne Treatment, $36

Why Ali Tested…

Test Results…

All Covered Blemish Patches

  • I’ve tried a lot of blemish patches over the years, and I have to say these patches are the thinnest ones out there. They practically disappear on your face, which is great if you’re wearing one to work or applying makeup. When it comes to effectiveness, I would give them a solid A. I find them to be just as effective as my favorite brand, which is Hero Cosmetics. I would take a photo for this review, but I already used all of the patches, which I think proves how good they are. I would buy these again. 

Dive Deep Mevalonic Moisturizer

  • I don’t have anything negative to say about my experience with this moisturizer, yet at the same time, I don’t feel deeply obsessed with it. I used it during the transitional months, so September and October when the weather in New York isn’t yet cold. It’s a good weight for that time, but now that we’re in winter weather, I don’t think this would be thick enough to deal with my dry patches. This didn’t disrupt my skin, didn’t cause breakouts, absorbed well, and was easy to layer, so again, nothing negative to say. But would I buy it again over other products I pick up at my local CVS? Probably not. 

Doing the Work Salicylic Acid Acne Treatment

  • I like this product. I’ve added this as a beginner step in my routine to keep breakouts at a minimum. It hasn’t irritated my skin, so I try to use it every other night. Instead of spot treating pimples, I like that it treats everything at once, and can be spread down to my neck and chest. I flew three out of the four weekends in October (gag) and felt like this paired with my other dermatologist-supplied creams kept my skin from going crazy. I did experience more clogged pores than normal, but considering everything I put my skin through, I’m impressed that I was able to maintain decent clarity.

Test Results…

Trust Me on This Hypochlorous Acid Spray

  • I quickly became addicted to this spray over the summer months. I use it after I've been out in the sun, post-sweaty workout, or as an everyday toner in my skincare routine. I have sensitive, eczema-prone skin and this always calms it down when it's red and inflamed. After testing for months, I’ve noticed a difference in how my skin looks. I even spray it on my body when I have eczema flare-ups. I'll let it dry and then apply moisturizer. It always decreases redness.

  • The best part about this spray is how fine the mist is. I've never tried anything else like it. The nozzle has this strange triangular shape that creates the finest, softest mist I've ever tried, which makes it very relaxing to use.

  • It's about the same price as the Tower 28 one, but I like this one better because of the fine mist. It evenly distributes the product better than the Tower 28 mist.

Emotional Support Lip Balm

  • This lip balm is nothing to write home about, but as someone with sensitive lips, it didn't irritate my skin or cause more flaking. Instead, it's a thick balm that hydrates and stays on throughout the night. I find that when I wake up in the morning, it’s still on. The only downside: $24 feels overpriced.

Even Keel Resurfacing Peel

  • This is probably my second-favorite product after the facial spray. I love this mask. It's spicy because it's made with four different acids, so I only keep it on for a minute or two. After every use, my pores are clear and any texture issues are gone. At $34, I feel like it's pretty affordable for a mask this effective. If you were to start with two products from the brand, I'd say go with the spray and this mask. You won't be disappointed.

Sidenotes…

  • The patches need to be removed from the plastic film with a tweezer, otherwise the edges will curl and you’ll get a deformed patch. 

  • For $38, we wish the moisturizer came in a bigger bottle.

  • Overall, we were both impressed with this line. We’ve continued to follow along on Lili’s journey, and feel reassured that she’s deeply involved with the creation and production of these items.
