No, it’s not only fashion that’s having a nostalgic moment with the ’90s. Beauty, too, has seen the resurgence of some common trends from the era. Here, we break down the top five ’90s lipstick trends that are still super wearable today.
Glossy Lips
Beauty’s obsession with all things dewy doesn’t just mean a luminous, glowing complexion. From Chanel to Fenty Puma, models were sported with heavily glossed-lips that oozed a sexy 90s appeal. Want to take your look up an extra notch? Use a metallic lip gloss instead.
Lip Liners
Clearly, Kylie Jenner was not the first to find out about lip liners – the trend was huge in the ’80s and ’90s. To get a perfectly plump pout, use a lip liner that’s a tad darker than your lipstick shade.
Brown Lipsticks
If nude coloured lipsticks are our go-to for lazy, casual days, then brown lipsticks were exactly that back in the 90s. Pair it with smokey eye makeup for an edgy look or tone it down by just applying mascara – it’s that versatile.
Metallic Lipsticks
Surprisingly enough, this lipstick trend is actually really wearable for day to day – you just have to pick the right shade of lippie. If you don’t fancy bright colours, opt for a pink or nude shade and layer on a metallic eyeshadow for added iridescence.
Berry Lips
We love a good red lipstick but another alternative to a classic red? Berry coloured lippies. The deep burgundy shade is sexy yet feminine and is the perfect way to jazz up your day to night look.
