What's in Ruby's Hair and Makeup Bag?
Unlike Maeve (and her boyfriend this season, Otis), Ruby's character is extra in all the best ways — which means her hair and makeup had to match. Just take her beauty inspiration — a mix of Cher Horowitz and Jan Brady, two popular girls all the same — as proof.
Ruby's skin was coated with high-coverage pigment, starting with Glossier Futuredew (£23) mixed with Rimmel London Medium Matt Tan "buffed all over the skin and neck," followed by Chantecaille Future Skin (£72) and It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer (£25) and topped with highlighter from the Hourglass Cosmetics Ambient Lighting Palette (£61). (She also used Hourglass Ambient to set Ruby's eye makeup, which was created with Glossier Skywash (£15) in Pebble and Lidstar Moon.)
Ruby's lips also got the full movie-star treatment: lip balm (Glossier), lip liner (Shu Uemura), MAC Lipstick in Verve (£18), and lip gloss (Liz Earle Beauty). "NYX Cosmetics Juicy Secret Lip Gloss (£7) is also a great match for Ruby's lip colour," she said.
Her hair barrettes were courtesy of Hub Shop. Oh, and to create those hickeys (or as Bilverstone called them, "love bites") in the first few episodes, David Stonemam used Maekup for Film & Television.
