Going back to school after three months of carefree life is hard, we get it. And we can bet that the elders’ assurances that “the school years were great” don’t motivate you at all. Personally, watching movies about young people like us during high school helped us. You can take endless inspiration from movies and TV shows about high school, repeat the images of the main characters (our fashion editor talked about the most iconic) and, of course, their make-up and hairstyles. The latter has always received special attention, so before the start of the school year, we decided to recall our favorite beauty images of schoolgirls in the cinema.
Sam from It’s Good to Be Quiet


Emma Watson’s first project after eight episodes of Harry Potter was the role of high school student Sam in the film adaptation of Stephen Chbosky’s novel It’s Good to Be Quiet. The scene with hair blowing in the tunnel to David Bowie’s song “Heroes” has become a cult. And the long pixie haircut, almost always decorated with headbands and hairpins, was sought after by all American schoolgirls.

Heroes from “Euphoria”


Thanks to make-up artist Donnie Devi, make-up has become an integral part of the image of each heroine of the series. Maddie received the status of an ambassador of black graphic arrows and glossy lips, Cassie – curls and neat rhinestones, Kat – bright shadows, red lipstick and smoky, and Jules – glitter and art makeup. The only pity is that in our schools it is better not to appear in such a make-up, otherwise a reprimand from teachers is inevitable.

Maeve from “Sex Education”


Maeve has become the epitome of a classic rebel who sees bright makeup as a means of protection. In the first season, bleached hair with pink tips was part of her image, and in the second, the hairstyle changed in the same way as the heroine’s demeanor. Meanwhile, according to the main makeup artist-stylist of the Emily Bilverstone line, Maeve’s bangs were inspired by Lydia Dietz from Beetlejuice and Lisa Rowe from Girl, Interrupted. The only thing that does not change in the image of the hero is black eyeliner and nose piercing – features whose main task is to show his determination and courage.

Regina George from Mean Girls


In the image of high school student Regina George, you can write a portrait of a girl from scratch. Blonde long hair, bright lips, blue mother-of-pearl shades and, of course, hoop earrings and a name chain – all the trends of that time are still popular today, so you can safely note the main chips of the hero (except for his character, of course).

Cher Horowitz from Clueless


The series about teenagers from Beverly Hills High School was not only a snapshot of the times filled with the atmosphere of the nineties, but also influenced the development of pop culture. Alicia Silverstone, as Cher Horowitz, has become one of the symbols of the generation – thick long hair, as everyone dreams, and mother-of-pearl lipstick has become a staple of any cosmetic bag.

Blair and Serena from Gossip Girl


In high school on the Upper East Side, the dress code was much stricter than the teenagers in Euphoria. Therefore, Queen B was most often seen with natural makeup – pink blush, lip gloss and colored eyelashes. Of the many accessories she almost always settled on headbands, which she chose individually for each image. Serena Van der Woodsen was indifferent to hoops, which can not be said about the style that is now only associated with her – the beach, slightly careless curls.

Noora from “Shame”

The Norwegian drama “Shame”, released in 2015, is loved by young people around the world for its realistic characters. They didn’t wake up with perfect hair and make-up, they just ate chips in bed in the evening and looked like real schoolchildren, not actors. The main role model for young girls was the feminist Noora. The platinum bob and burgundy lipstick that stands out brightly on fair skin has become the adoration of all young girls.
