The HBO show Euphoria is known for its bold makeup looks, which can be stressful on the skin, according to Maude Apatow. In a recent Vogue beauty tutorial, the actress explained, "When I started working and wearing more makeup, my skin got a lot worse, so I needed to come up with a routine. This one I've used all through shooting Euphoria and it's worked."

She admitted, "It's taken me a long time to find products that don't make me break out." Now, that Maude has perfected her skincare and makeup routine, she's sharing her tips, tricks, and favorite products to conceal breakouts, hydrate dry skin, and get a flawless red lip. She even shared products that the Euphoria makeup artists use on the set.

I Tried Cassie From Euphoria’s 4 AM Beauty Routine: Here’s What Happened

Obagi Medical Nu-Derm Toner

"I use this toner," Maude shared.

A Skinstore shopper said, "Been using this for 15+ years. I've used lots of toners but always come back to this." Another shared, "I have used Obagi products products for years and they are wonderful for my sensitive skin. Other products used to leave me with red cheeks and "tight, itchy" skin. With Obagi my skin looks good and feels great. I highly recommend these products."

Obagi Medical MD Intensive Daily Repair Moisturiser

"My skin is pretty dry, so I try to use a lot of moisturizer," Maude revealed.

A Dermstore shopper said, "I always struggle with patchy dry spots in my very oily/combination skin. Finding a moisturizer that fixes the dryness without being too greasy is usually hard.

A shopper remarked, "I love my tool! I am shocked at how much of a difference it makes. My skin looks more lifted. I use it religiously and will continue to do so. I know it is expensive, but definitely worth it."

Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte's Magic Lip Scrub

"Before I do a red lip, I use a lip scrub. Here's the Charlotte Tilbury lip scrub," Lexi Howard's real-life counterpart said.

A Charlotte Tilbury shopper raved, "It's magic! Charlotte's lip scrub is fantastic stuff in a small little tub, it keeps your lips moist all throughout the day. My lips are so smooth and plump since using it. I have recommended this to so many friends and they are all impressed with it to."

Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte’s Magic Lip Oil Crystal Elixir

"I put on the Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte's Magic Lip Oil. This stuff is so good."

"FANTASTIC. ORDERED TWO MORE," a shopper said. Another advised, "Just try it your be amazed This is definitely magic, it feels like silk, the roller ball make application so much easy I use it to massage the oil in to the outer lines on my lips and the fine lines are slowly fading."

This primer has 11.9K "loves" from Sephora shoppers, with one raving, "This has easily become a staple in my make up routine.

I have found that my makeup stays in place a lot longer when I use this primer first, leaving my face looking flawless all day!"

Marianna Hewitt has raved about this concealer not once, but twice in beauty breakdowns she shared with E! News.

Jillian Dempsey Natural Khol Eyeliner

"Then, I go in with an eyeliner. This is Jillian Dempsey Khôl Eyeliner. It's brown. I usually just do a little bit and then smudge it out," Maude explained.

A Revolve shopper shared, "These Jillian Dempsey Khol Eyeliners far outperform any other eye pencils, green beauty or otherwise. They are waterproof, do not smudge when carefully applied to the upper waterline... I also love that there is a built-in smudger with cap for when you're desiring a more smudged or smokey look."

 

Laura Mercier Caviar Volumizing Mascara

Maude uses two different mascaras in her first routine. This is the first one. She shared, "This is what they used on me on Euphoria. It makes your lashes look like you're wearing fake lashes. I start with the Laura Mercier."
