The 90s Comeback!

Sunday, December 22, 2013

Hey everyone!

Hope you all had a great weekend. Sorry that my post have been so spastic lately but the holidays are quite hectic, so todays post is 90s inspired. I have been loving the re-emergence of the 90s brown makeup look. I've put together some of my favorite NARS products to re-create this look.

  • Blush in LoveJoy, this is a shimmery bronze rose color.
  • Eye Paint in Mesopotamia. 
  • Eye Liner in Via De' Martelli, this is a true chocolate shade (so smooth and creamy!).
  • Eyeshadow Duo in India song. Another truly neutral duo, this has a matte vanilla and shimmery walnut shade. 
  • Satin Lip Pencil in Het Loo, a satin or glossy finish is best when wearing a brown lip because a matte brown lip can look a but dead.

What do you all think of this trend? Love it or hate it?

Have a great day!

    Not too crazy about the brown lip trend personally. But I love the trend of brown shadows and liners.

      I think many people share your thoughts on the brown lips, but couldn't agree more love the brown on the eyes trend. Thanks for checking it out :)

    Love it (looking at this I do feel slightly old now though... because this look looks/feels kind of "normal" to me)!
    I think a trip to MAC/the Nars counter is in order!

      I completely agree I don't see the brown lip becoming a huge trend like a vampy lip. Thanks for checking it out :)

    i much prefer the shade on the eyelids rather than lips, personally i don't think it'd suit me! xo

      I think many people feel the same way, they love the brown eyes and cheeks. Brown lips are definitely something work your way into.
      Thanks for checking it out :)
