Barbie Ferreira Adds a Rose to Her Collection of Hidden Tattoos
One “Euphoria” character who’s earned rave reviews for her makeup prowess (and lessons in empowerment) is fanfic-churning Kat Hernandez, leading to an even bigger interest in Barbie Ferreira, the actor who plays her. While we know that Ferreira had a modeling career that led her into the acting world and that her online social media presence showcases body positivity in all its glory, one thing we rarely see on her Instagram grid is her newish collection of hidden tattoos.
In a recent interview with Allure, Ferreira opened up about her anxiety in light of the global pandemic. In addition to the work she did on herself “that I would not have done if I wasn’t paused,” she also did the unexpected and got some DIY ink. Living at her newly purchased LA home with her three cats – Mortimer, Magdalena, and Thomas – and partner, musician Elle Puckett, Ferreira told the publication: “I was like, ‘F*ck it. I can’t die and not have tattoos.'”
While many of her designs aren’t very readily visible because of their placements – she has a butt tattoo in the stick-and-poke technique and two others located in the side-boob area – each one has a fun backstory that’s well worth the read. Keep scrolling to see what we mean ahead.
Barbie Ferreira's Butterfly Lower Back Tattoo
On April 25, 2022, the “Euphoria” star appeared on tattoo artist David Enth‘s Instagram Stories, where she showed off her first back tattoo: an abstract butterfly etched on her skin in black ink. Ferreira’s massive new tattoo, which stretches from her midback past her waistline, features delicate yet sharp lines that create the silhouette of a butterfly with outstretched wings.
Barbie Ferreira's Fairy Arm Tattoo
On the back of her arm, Ferreira has a small tattoo of a fairy with zero shading or detailing. The fine-line design appears to show a tiny creature in flight.
