Donni Davy shared the shimmery, crystal-dotted glam (and matching skimpy outfit) to celebrate her fourth Emmy nomination.
This “Euphoria” look was too good to stay on the cutting room floor.
Donni Davy, the HBO drama’s lead makeup artist, gave fans a peek at a Cassie Howard glam that never made it to screen on Monday.
The two-time Emmy winner shared the look to celebrate her fourth nomination for her makeup work on the series, this time for the Season 3 episode “Kitty Likes To Dance.”
“Bucket of my tears,” Davy captioned the clip, lamenting that the scene was cut. Instagram/@donni.davy Big curls and glitzy chandelier earrings rounded out the bombshell look. Instagram/@donni.davy Icy opalescent shadow and clear crystals dotted Sydney Sweeney’s eyes. Instagram/@donni.davy The actress paired the frosty glam with a rhinestoned mesh halter catsuit with bronze sequin pasties. Instagram/@donni.davy“Bucket of my tears for this Cassie look not going on the big screen,” she captioned the video, calling the sparkling glam her “fave” of the season.
The scene called for icy opalescent lids, a razor-sharp wing and black liner tightlined along Sydney Sweeney’s upper and lower lash lines and a scattering of clear crystals across the eyes.
Davy finished the design with shimmering skin and a frosted lip traced in brownish-nude liner.
Sweeney, 28, modeled the makeup in a rhinestoned mesh halter catsuit with bronze sequin pasties, accessorized with chandelier earrings and her hair teased into big curls. The actress capped the clip with a wink.
Davy has documented Cassie’s glam all season, from the character’s wedding party to her now-famous pool photo shoot. Instagram/@donni.davy Davy teased soon-to-be-launched waterline pencils from her brand Half Magic after a follower credited the show with a tight-lining habit. Instagram/@donni.davy The makeup artist scored the nod for the “Euphoria” Season 3 episode “Kitty Likes To Dance.” Instagram/@donni.davy Cassie’s grown-up glam turned “performative” this season, Davy told Allure. Instagram/@donni.davyCommenters mourned the loss of the scene. “This has to be one of the best looks of the season — it’s soooo pretty,” one wrote.
Another follower credited the show with inspiring a new technique: “This season made me start tight lining.”
Davy couldn’t resist replying. “Tight lining is the s—t!!” she wrote, teasing that her brand Half Magic is about to drop waterline pencils designed for staying power.
The over-the-top glam suits where Cassie has landed in the show’s grown-up final chapter. “It’s very performative,” Davy told Allure of the character’s Season 3 makeup, calling it “kind of desperate, unapologetic” and built to grab attention.
She’s chronicled Cassie’s whole arc this season on social media, detailing the inspiration and techniques behind everything from her wedding party look to a “dreamy trashy” episode 4 makeover.
The scrapped scene won’t earn any trophies — but the Cassie look Davy loved most got its close-up anyway.
