Jules is the trans, mesmerizing-vintage-bike-riding new girl in town. Rue is fresh out of rehab and doesn’t plan to stay sober, but is struggling to immerse herself back into high school. It’s sometimes easy to forget that these characters are just kids as they experience the dark reality of sex, drugs, and high-stakes high school drama.Season one is over, so here’s our high-level synopsis of what went down as to avoid spoilers. “Euphoria' is uniquely capable of pulling viewers into complex storylines that make us fall in love with criminals and analyze toxic relationships, all while feeling like we’re on a gnarly bender.

The drama stars Zendaya as Rue, a 17-year-old recovering drug addict, Alexa Demie as Maddy the fiercely defiant popular girl, Barbie Ferreira as Kat the virgin turned dominatrix, Jacob Elordi as Nate the violent jock, and Hunter Schafer as Jules the new girl.įrom the complicated storylines to the characters, to the makeup, everything about the show is captivating. Davy has later revealed this specific shape is an ode to Jules’ mid season episode, “F**ck Anyone Who’s Not a Sea Blob.“Euphoria' is HBO’s next big drama and we are obsessed with everything about it. Her look at the premiere’s New Years Eve party also features enigmatic inner corner eyeliner.

So far this season Jules’ biggest point of transformation is her formerly long, wavy fairy hair being cut into a short and straight bob. Season 2 Episode 1: Trying to Get to Heaven Before They Close The Door Jules As the second season airs, NYLON will be keeping track of the best hair, makeup, and nail looks from each episode of the show and updating the list weekly. Lucky for us, they are generous about sharing inspiration and behind the scenes images from this season, and we’ll be keeping tabs. This season, the beauty team also includes Kim Kimble (famously one of Beyoncé’s go-to hair stylists) as the lead of the hair department, and nail artist Natalie Minerva.

Innocence has been lost, if the characters had any to begin with, and now we can’t wait to see all of the ways the aesthetic takes form in the hair, makeup, and nail looks across the board.ĭavy won an Emmy in 2020 for Outstanding Contemporary Makeup for her work on Euphoria, so expectations have been set extremely high. She also loves fake blood & gore.įrom the first episode it’s been clear, the cast is embracing a subtler and often darker vibe. She’s elusive with her sparkle and prefers a softer version of twinkling Euphoria glam. She loves bright color, but only when she’s really feeling bold. She experiments with all different takes on winged liner from classic to modern to… something more free-form. She loves her dewy skin, and going foundation free. She has her full glam moments but then switches to super minimalism. She explains: There’s a steady ‘quiet’ to her, until she’s suddenly loud. On her Instagram she captioned a picture of nine different eye makeup looks, mostly with inky lashes, spidery liner, and more muted (relatively speaking) shadow saying, “Season 2 is like Season 1’s more introverted sister”.

Doniella Davy already warned audiences that something different is in store for season two. In the two years of downtime Euphoria-inspired makeup had been a consistent trend on TikTok (the #Euphoriamakeup on TikTok has over 716.9 million views and counting), and will only be revitalized with new looks to recreate. But perhaps even more importantly, all of our favorite characters have returned serving new fashion and beauty looks. Thankfully, after such extended time away, season two does not disappoint, bringing back all the not-so-innocent hijinks of the kids of Euphoria High (or, as it’s technically called, East Highland High School). After an extended absence, Euphoria’s long awaited season two premiered on HBO on Sunday, January 9.
