All about Y2K beauty, the 90s trend making a comeback
The Y2K beauty trend is back and we cannot keep calm!! The Y2K look is nostalgic and gives a modern twist to the trends of the 90s and early 2000s. The trend has given rise to some fun beauty elements like frosted eyeshadow, body glitter, ombre lips, holographic gloss, etc. It's a fun way to reduce stress and express yourself through makeup and fashion.
Glossy lips that shine
Lip gloss is one of the 90s trends that has made a huge comeback this year. Though the 90s lip glosses used to be sticky with not-so-great formulations, today we have some great high-shine lip glosses that are long-lasting and non-sticky. The lip glosses are packed with hydrating ingredients like vitamin E, glycerine, and hyaluronic acid to give plump lips that also look healthy.
Frosted eyeshadow and colored eyeliner
The 90s was all about having fun with your eye makeup and the trend has come back again. You can pick a blue, purple, or green colored eyeliner and draw a modern cat-eye style to ace the Y2K look. Also, try the 90s frosted eyeshadow look with soft shimmery shades like minty greens, pastel pinks, and baby blues with a tiny glitter pigment.
Butterfly clips and other quirky accessories
The 90s was all about quirky and snazzy accessories like butterfly clips. However, if you are thinking that flaunting them will make you look like an eighth-grade wannabe, then take some inspiration from celebrities like Ariana Grande, Megan Thee Stallion, and Lizzo. They styled these clips in a super-classy way to elevate their hairstyles. You can also try colorful bobby pins and sleeker barrettes.
Hair crimping
The hair crimping style was a huge thing during the early 2000s. However, going too overboard with it might look a bit odd in this era. But the crimped hairstyle can be made a bit less severe and soft with the right hot tools and techniques. So, create large waves and turn the crinkles into a flowing pattern instead of tight and uneven bends.
Glitter all over
Get ready to sparkle and shine on with your eye makeup with some glittery lids. Celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Britney Spears, and Christina Aguilera rock this look. After applying your regular eyeshadow, just layer it up with some shimmery highlighter or a glitter base. Also, the body glitter trend is back. You can invest in some glittery body oils or lotions and dazzle.
