Popular Euphoria Makeup Styles
The TV show Euphoria has featured tons of dramatic makeup styles through its many characters. In fact, you must have seen how one single character sports so many beautiful looks in different scenes. Given below are some of the most killer makeup looks from the drama series.
Glitter Tears
Trailing glitter tears, actually. When Rue appeared on the screen with glitter tears, no one could take their eyes off. Very soon, the makeup style became a favorite of a lot of teens and women all over.
The idea of gold-glitter triangles below the eyes was artistic. It was vibrant, sparkling, and dramatic. Rue always wore this look to portray a sad clown or someone who found it difficult to be in control. While this particular look told a story of its own, makeup artists around the world took inspiration from it and gave birth to so many similar eye makeup styles out of these glitter tears. Just check out Youtube and you will come across thousands of tutorials on this.
Neon Eyeliner
Kat’s makeup style on the show tells a story of her evolution. Though she has worn different variations of makeup, the neon liner attracts the most attention in particular. The emboldened liner tells the viewers that she has matured and grown into a beautiful and sexually-empowered young lady. Multiple versions of the neon liner have been created by makeup artists. At festivals and carnivals, you must have seen faces painted with neon. But neon as eyeliner has truly caught the attention of women. If you have been doing the black cat-eye for a long time now, you can use a neon liner to give your eye makeup a vibrant look. There are several vivid shades that you can choose to apply this type of makeup style. Adding a pop of color to the eyes has become a fashion trend since Kat wore a neon liner on Euphoria to portray a transformed personality.
Rhinestones
When Maddy appeared with rhinestone makeup, a lot of girls and young women wanted to copy that amazing eye look. Maddy has been popular for wearing looks such as cat eyes, vibrant lashes, and a good deal of rhinestones. Apart from Maddy, there are a couple of other characters that have also sported eyeshadow with rhinestones. In the market, you will be able to find various shades of rhinestone stickers. Based on the look you want to achieve, you can wear either single color rhinestones or go for a multidimensional effect. This type of makeup is a surefire way of adding a fantastical element to the personality and represents boldness and confidence.
