That traditional for 1990s makeup is something we can easily recognize by old good movies. Yet, in the 2000s, beauty trends have dramatically changed, as it always happens. Now it is 2018, and those beauty trends are about to show up this summer. So, get ready to look trendy and check out what beauty trends from the 90s are about to get fashionable again.

Nude lipstick

It is a real business card of 1990s. It was so trendy to use light lipstick that is just 2-3 tones darker, than skin. That matte lip look could be also created with a darker foundation. The key feature of this technique is not going too light to look natural. A stroke or two of transparent lip gloss in the middle created that pout lip look. For even more defined look, lips may be lined with a light pencil. The line has to be well blended to the center of the lips with a synthetic brush.

Frosted lips

This is another lip makeup trend that is closely associated with the 1990s fashion. As a rule, it was fashionable to wear reflective lipstick with cool pinky undertone. For even bolder look, lips could be coated with transparent lip gloss. Sparkling lips are making their return this year, and a good example of that shiny Diamond Crusters that was recently introduced by Lime Crime.
