In fact more traditional gyaru tend to have lots more makeup to look ugly on purpose, but there's a bunch of different niches within the gyaru class. Like Kogal, Yamanba, etc., (Ganguro is the one that emphasises the tan I think). I think the idea is to be 'loud' and free-spirited compared to what Japanese society normally wants girls to be like, and that's what gyaru does. And then there's different levels of clothing/makeup/personality depending on how far the girl wants to take it. Not all of them are promiscuous either, but some are.
But basically, blonde california valley girls are like this by default, so they're kinda like a first gen gyaru. Or at least the progenitor for what would be a gyaru.
