This post is especially for girls, every fashion trend comes and goes, same is the case with makeup trends, they are evolving with time. In the course of recent years, society has changed its thought of what the ideal essence of makeup looks like. Back in time, makeup was considered a factor of beauty. Makeup trends usually focus on some features of the face. As in the 1900s, lips were more focused and were often highlighted and cornered with lip liners in sharp shapes but after some time in the 1950s, lips were usually bold and in pouted shape with dark shades like red. Also with the eyeshades, before they were likely to be done with minimal colors but they were changed to pastel colors in the 80s. Females preferred a more powdered look. Back in the 90s, makeup was usually done by only movie stars or musicians for their music videos so its market was quite less but still, the makeup industry made huge changes in their products and style.
By the 1920s, lips were the main focus for all modern and casual looks. The fair complexion was the main priority so face powder and cream range products were very famous. No look was completed without dark red lipstick. In the 1930s, ideal makeup always started with powdered makeup. For the ayes, they usually used petroleum jelly or olive oil to their eyelids to have that glossy effect. Eyelashes were enhanced with dark henna but not so thick. Eyebrows were plucked in thin shapes with a high arch and even some of the women shaved their eyebrows completely and filled them with a pencil.
World war II changed makeup looks a lot and at that time makeup was considered a luxury item as it was heavily taxed due to its shipment. In the 1950s, women used glamorous looks and used a heavy foundation with bold lips with a blush on. They even winged your eyeliners and mascara was also famous.
From 1900 to the 1950s, makeup was focused on facial features like cheeks, lips, and eyebrows. After that makeup was focused on the eyes. Pastel eyeshades were preferred and also eye makeup was done with a technique called cut crease which is also famous till now.
In the 1970s, women preferred no makeup or less makeup to deal with the issues of beauty standards, and also the makeup industry took notice and created products like ‘no makeup look’ or ‘barely visible’. Mostly in the 1900s, makeup products were created for the white complexion, but in the 70s makeup, the industry introduced darker shades for every skin type. The 80s were all about colors. They used pink, purple, yellowish shades with red cheeky blushes and heavy eyeliners. In the 90s, makeup was all about glitter. Women love to do glittery looks with shimmery eyes and even cheeks with glossy lips. Also in the 2000s, makeup was all about heavy blushes and glossy lips. By 2010, makeup was bold, and smoky eye makeup was preferred as inspired by Kardashians.
Today the makeup looks are usually inspired by models and content creators on Instagram and YouTube. Makeup now is usually around perfect-constructed eyebrows, deep contours, highlighting your features around the face. Summer and winter looks differ. In summers, makeup is usually light and women preferred less makeup except for their events. Daily routine makeup usually contains lip and cheek tint with mascara. As time passes, makeup products increased, and now a lot more makeup products are introduced that 90s women never thought about. Makeup in the new era is a mixture of all previous trends and includes products from every trend like winged eyeliners, blush on, thick eyebrows, colorful and dark eyeshades, bold and nude and beige lip colors, contours, bronzers, highlighters, and many more. Winter looks are usually bold and women prefer to wear bold lips in winters with heavy makeup as compared to summers.
These trends are constantly shifting and we will see more different trends in the future.
