In the vid, Reinhart explained that back when she was doing tons of red carpets for Riverdale as a younger woman nearly a decade ago now, she’d cover up her troublesome zits with phony bangs to make sure fans and photogs alike were none the wiser! She noted:
“I used to create fake bangs that I didn’t have in order to hide my acne. I created a fake bang to go across the center of my forehead.”
Genius! Such a simple cover, and easy on her skin, too!
But it didn’t always work. Reinhart added:
“I historically would get this insane pimple always in the middle of my face — a cystic pimple — that you couldn’t cover.”
Oof!
In the same vid, she explained how the Riverdale stars used to have something called a “Beauty Pass” they could use on set to wipe away bad pimples in post-production! She noted:
“On Riverdale, we would have something called a ‘Beauty Pass.’ If you had a really bad breakout on set that obviously you didn’t want anyone to see, they could go through and sort of wipe it out in the frame, sort of like putting a filter on you.”
As for Lili herself, she opted for that “Beauty Pass” during Season 2 when she sang Mad World. The actress explained:
“In the trailer, they didn’t edit my skin. In hindsight, it’s not bad [but] it made me so self-conscious. I thought I had a monstrosity on my face. I was so distraught that they didn’t edit out the pimple on my forehead.”
She then offered this helpful message to her TikTok followers who might themselves be struggling with acne:
“To anyone out there, maybe it’s helpful to know that the perfect skin you see on TV and in movies is sometimes not really what’s going on [behind the scenes].”
Amen to that!
