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 part, Davy and her team ditched foundation this season for dewy, natural skin (with the exception of Alexa Demie’s Maddy who always goes all out with makeup). And while the bright colors and glitter that made Euphoria a mecca of beauty inspiration will be present, expect a bit more nuance in the looks shown week to week. But if you missed anything, don’t worry, we’re gathering up all of the best makeup moments from Euphoria season two.

The Euphoria finale didn’t deliver many new makeup looks, but it did teach Cassie a lesson about karma. Her final look of the season, a sweet pink and blue moment to match her knit set, is nice, but it’s even better when combined with the bruises from her unavoidable fight with Maddy.
Her ex-boyfriend may be dating her ex-best friend, but that doesn’t mean Maddy is going to let her makeup routine fall by the wayside. Extra points for surviving her fight with Cassie without a broken nail or hair out of place.

If you forgot Jules was a character in Euphoria, don’t worry, so did the show’s creator, Sam Levinson. Luckily, though, Davy did not and she provided one last subtle look for Jules this season.
Everything is more dramatic in the theater, so it makes sense that Lexi’s Twiggy lashes from episode five would be amped up for the debut of her stage character.
