Make up was very simple in the 50's. Not a lot of colored eye shadows were used, mostly browns and natural skin tone colors. Colored eye shadows were saved for parties and special occasions, so they'd wear shades of blue and purple. So most of the time women would wear red and pink lipsticks, with a bit of blush for a natural girly glow (a lot of girls would just pinch their cheeks to make them pink), and winged eye liner was very popular, because it gave the illusion of longer lashes.

  • Brown hues were popular in the 1990s.
  • The significant makeup look of the early 1990s was the "grunge look," inspired by the music of the time period.
  • Mid '90s makeup saw a return to pretty with the rise of neutral and brown-toned makeup with matte skin and lips, while the bare-faced, no makeup look of the late '90s was popularized in perfume ads of the time.
  • Lip gloss was a staple of '90s makeup.
  • The bare face/no-makeup look was popularized in the late '90s. Skin was free of foundation and dewy--often just moisturizer. Concealer was used if necessary, and powder skipped. Blush was either not worn or applied sparingly, unlike other '90s makeup looks that used heavy blush.

makeup in the 80's was heavy all over, heavy eyes, heavy cheeks, an heavy lips. it was all about bright! the blusher was in the hollows of the cheeks rather than on the apples an it was brought out to the back of the cheek near your hairline. the lips were very overdrawn.

It was very bold, and eyeshadow colors such as cerulean blue were popular. Heavy foundation and powder were common, as well as Mica makeup, which is ground powder & is very reflective of light, making it look glittery.
