Recently I have been taking inspiration from 90s make-up looks by incorporating key elements into my everyday make-up routine, such as the trade mark brown lips and the slightly smoky eyes. With that in mind I thought I would share with you what I use/do to create it, as this is ‘look’ is probably worn in 99% of my recent outfit posts.
No eye make-up look of mine would be complete without some form of black eyeliner and mascara-I fell ‘bare’ without them!
Onto the lips…To create that 90s brown lip I use two products-a brown lipliner and a nude/beige matte lipstick. As a recent lipliner convert, I use Mac “Cork” to line and fill in the whole of my lips blotting each layer of lipliner with a tissue to ensure maximum staying power and colour opacity. A recent trick/tip I discovered is by adding a slightly lighter shade of lipstick (Revlon “Nude Attitude”) to the centre of lips, adds a subtle highlight to the look.
So there you have a couple of ways to add a 90s/grunge ‘touch’ to your everyday make-up look.
