EXCLUSIVE: Alix Earle Talks Acne Journey and Creating Reale Actives, Her New Skin Care Brand

Reale Actives launches with four affordable acne products featuring mandelic acid, developed over two years with dermatologist Dr. Kiran Mian, targeting gentler exfoliation.

  • Social media star Alix Earle debuts Reale Actives on March 31, an acne-focused skincare collection featuring four products ranging in price from $28 to $39.
  • Motivated by personal struggles with cystic acne, Earle sought to avoid the 'medical vibes' of brands like Proactivs and create products she could proudly display.
  • Consulting dermatologist Dr. Kiran Mian helped develop the formulas, which prioritize mandelic acid as the primary breakout-reducing ingredient alongside ceramides and hyaluronic acid.
  • A secretive Instagram account, @wtfisalixdoing, gained more than 500,000 followers ahead of launch; Earle appeared on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon last night.
  • Earle has products planned through 2028, intending to identify consumer frustrations and fill market gaps by launching new offerings in the fall.
