bnk,
  Ever since Harry Styles first dropped his boundary-blurring beauty line, Pleasing, in November of 2021, we knew that we would be craving much more than just the initial six-product drop. The first collection, called the “Perfect Pearl” collection, consisted of four nail polishes, an eye and lip balm, and a pearly serum primer. Now, Harry and the brand are finally promising to deliver a new range later this month. To help announce the new drop, named “Shroom Bloom,” Pleasing also announced legendary musician Mick Fleetwood as the new face of the brand and the star of the new collection’s psychedelic campaign, alongside cartoon frogs, flowers, and oversized mushrooms.

If you’re watching Euphoria season two for another round of envelope-pushing makeup looks, you’ll have to look a little closer this time. The mind behind the HBO show’s headline-worthy makeup, Doniella Davy, told Us Weekly that this season, she’s describing the looks as “discoverable” as opposed to in-your-face. “It’s not a repeat of season one,” she said, but instead “more refined and more subtle.” In fact, on Instagram, she referred to the season two makeup looks as “season one’s more introverted sister.” Of course, that doesn’t mean the show will be without its iconic glitter and eye liner. “There’s a steady ‘quiet’ to her, until she’s suddenly loud,” Davy said of the makeup. “She has her full glam moments but then switches to super minimalism.” For the most...
