Gel is Davy’s preferred eyeliner formula on the set of Euphoria. When etching on precise, black cat-eyes, she’s newly a fan of the Inglot AMC Eyeliner Gel. It joins last season’s go-to liner in Davy’s kit: Chanel’s Calligraphie De Chanel.
5. MAC 212 Flat Definer Brush
When painting on the sharp winged liner seen on Euphoria, Davy’s favorite brush shape is flat and rectangular. The MAC 212 Flat Definer Brush fits the bill, she says, as well as 09 in Kate Jane Hughes’ brush set collab with Spectrum Collections. Davy’s team can’t get enough of the latter, but, unfortunately for us, it’s harder to come by.
6. Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shield Glow

HBO Max“We’re really big on lack of foundation,” Davy shares, and that will be true for the new season, too. Instead of the thick base makeup often used for other television shows, she’s veering toward tinted, shimmery sunscreens to amplify the actors’ naturally luminous, fresh complexions. Davy’s top product pick is the Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shield Glow, which has a universally flattering golden radiance and packs SPF 50.
7. Chantecaille Future Skin Foundation
If extra coverage is needed, Davy grabs the Chantecaille Future Skin Foundation. “It melts into the skin and looks so much like skin,” she says. Sometimes, she even adds a drop of it to the sunscreen for a custom-blended BB cream. (Makeup artist Molly R. Stern also swears by it for giving mature skin a dewy finish.)
Because Euphoria is filmed on a 35-millimeter camera, a “grainy, soft texture is over everything,” Davy says. “We always cover blemishes and whatnot, but we’re embracing super-glowy skin and not really worrying if it’s too shiny because it’s not HD. It’s blurred.”
8. No False Lashes
Instead of gluing on dramatic falsies for season two, Davy is favoring chunky lower lashes built up with loads of mascara. This look helps the characters’ lids fit into the rawer look of the new episodes.
9. Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze
The last product Davy mentions on our call is the Anastasia Beverly Hill Brow Freeze. She combs up brows with the translucent wax to lock them in place for filming. Allure‘s Nicola Dall’Asen adores it too for its fluffy soap brow effect.
Now that I know what Davy is working with, my imagination is doing its best to pair them together and dream up possible looks we will soon see on Rue, Jules, Maddy, Kat, and the rest of the cast. The release date for Euphoria season two has yet to be announced, but it’s safe to say it can’t come soon enough. My face is ready for the inspiration that Davy is sure to deliver.
