HBO Max’s show Euphoria has become wildly popular as the second season continues to air weekly. The stars of the shows get a lot of attention for the unique and perfectly executed looks on the show. From colorful eyeshadow to facial gems, no detail is spared. Maude Apatow’s character, Lexi Howard, is usually styled in looks that are less colorful and more mature and composed. But no matter what look Maude showcases, it’s hard to ignore her flawless skin. The 24-year-old actress recently shared her skincare tips and tricks in a YouTube video with Vogue where she candidly shares her struggles with breakouts while shooting. Maude seems perfectly prim and proper wearing a pink and white frilly top that resembles the many Miu Miu looks her character wears on the show.
Step One: Get Clean
Apatow begins her routine by gently cleansing her face and patting her skin with a washcloth, all with a cat ear headband on to keep her hair out of the way. Then she goes in with an Obagi Medical toner using a cotton round to evenly distribute the product across her face explaining to the viewers, “When I started wearing more and more makeup, my skin got a lot worse, so I needed to come up with a new routine. And this one I’ve used like all through shooting Euphoria, and it’s worked, except for this last week when I broke out.”

Step Two: Moisturizer and Prep
After cleansing, the actress applies Obagi Medical IDR Exfoliating and Hydrating Lotion which she uses as a moisturizer. To help give her skin, which she claims is dry, an added boost, she carefully places Jillian Dempsey Hydrating Eye Masks directly below her eyes. While she lets those sit, she massages the products into her face with the Chantecaille Bio Lifting and Massage tool, rolling the tool over her jawline and cheekbones repeatedly.

Step Three: Lip Care
Still, with her eye masks on, Maude uses the Charlotte Tilbury lip scrub. After wiping off the scrub, she finally removes the eye masks and applies Charlotte Tilbury Magic Lip Oil while saying, “This stuff’s so good.”

Step Four: Prime
Following her lip routine, Maude protects her skin with a layer of the VI Derm SPF 50 Daily UV Defense Broad Spectrum Sunscreen. She explains with a smile, “My best self-care is just like laying down with my cats, watching TV, just totally trying to relax.” Preparing for her classic red lip makeup routine, the actress then primes her skin using the Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Hydrating Primer. To even out her skin and make it glow, she layers the Vita Liberata Beauty Blur over that.

Step Five: Glam
The star then proceeded to share her typical makeup routine consisting of brands like Armani for foundation, NARS for concealer and blush, and, most importantly, for her iconic red lip, she uses Laura Mercier Extreme Velour Extreme Matte Lipstick.
Maude admits that her makeup routine changes explaining, “Especially being on the Euphoria set when they’re trying all sorts of different looks all the time and different makeup and different techniques.” We’re curious to see what the actress will learn from the makeup artists in the next season of the show and how her look will continue to evolve.
