Not too long ago, I performed with this actually skinny eyeliner, the microliner ink from Shiseido, and I drew this image from my group that I actually love on one facet of my eye and like a sword on the opposite eye. And each of these are issues I like to attract. They find yourself in my sketchbook lots of the time.

Euphoria ushered on this new wave of magnificence, finest exemplified by the rhinestones and coloration that now fill For You pages. Are you and Doniella elevating the bar for season 2? Have you ever talked about what’s subsequent in any respect?
I believe there’s possibly a way of stress to do this. I believe the fascinating factor with sequences or a season leaping into one other season is the concept of getting to high your self or stage up. We have been doing our greatest to keep away from that stress as a result of no matter we did within the first season labored, in lots of methods. We’re simply making an attempt to recollect to remain true to the characters and keep true to the wavelength of the present slightly than making an attempt to create the subsequent Tiktok pattern or one thing.
Do you ever have a look at your co-stars’ make-up [Alexa Demie as Madi, Barbie Ferreira as Kat, Zendaya as Rue, and Sydney Sweeney as Cassie] and personally establish with their magnificence appears greater than Jules? Or are you Jule via and thru?
Jules is certainly essentially the most like me and I actually put lots of myself into the collaboration I did with Doni. Once we first began filming season 1, I used to be nonetheless type of in my colours and like, Oh my gosh, I’ve entry to all these enjoyable garments [but] I believe I have been a bit of goth recently. I have been carrying lots of black and I’ve gotten into screamo just lately. That’s like, taking place. It’s had an impact on me.
In that regard, there’s part of me that is possibly a bit of bit jealous of Kat’s make-up and that she inhabits a bit extra of a goth magnificence world, which I really like. To be trustworthy, what I need to channel and be adjustments each single day.

Along with your particular episode launch and season 2 on the way in which, are we going to see some character development via the make-up appears of Jules?
Yeah. We have talked about it so much. We have at all times been attentive to how the make-up companies a scene or displays a scene or amplifies a sure side of a scene and the place the character is at and what the character is feeling. The place season 1 left off is repositioning Jules for season 2 in a brand new place now that lots of huge issues have simply occurred. I believe there will likely be a little bit of an evolution and a few new vibes and aesthetics coming from Jules.
When do you personally really feel you are most stunning?
I believe I really feel essentially the most stunning after I really feel like myself. That sounds corny, nevertheless it’s true. Once I really feel like one and in unison between how I am feeling on the within—which is ever-changing and at all times evolving—and the way I look on the skin is a very particular feeling. It is a feeling I am notably attuned to and that if that is not matching up, I do know one thing’s off.
That feels actually essential to me and there is nearly a way of euphoria when these issues do harmonize. Additionally, when it is somebody who’s been previously fairly insecure, it is taken lots of work for me to be comfy with my face and the way I look. I’ve grown to essentially like how I look now. So letting that shine via at all times feels actually essential and is part of how I really feel stunning, as a result of my face is what makes me distinctive and that is stunning to me.
