Maude revealed she had to get creative while filming in order to keep her “gigantic zits” out of the screen.

“You couldn’t cover them, they were so big,” she added. “They stuck out and we tried [to hide them].”

Maude explained that she urged the director to be “careful with the lighting” as she didn’t want to “accentuate” her “bad” acne.

“When I started working and wearing more makeup, my skin got a lot worse,” she said, before saying that she had to come up with a solid skin care routine.

Throughout the process, Maude has picked up some skin care tricks and one of them was to stop picking at her skin.

“I definitely learned not to pick my skin because it spreads,” she said. “I never believed that when people told me that. Then I learned that if I pop zits, they travel.”

Euphoria was just recently renewed for a third season.
