Festive Fervour

Shimmer and sparkle your way into the festive season with a dash of 90s flair

- KONIKA DATTA

The beauty trends defining today are steeped in nostalgia with the rebellious 90s taking centre stage, as evident on the runways and BeautyTok. It was a decade of some of the most iconic looks that transcend the lifespan of the new-age aesthetics rife on social media.

So, as the party season heads our way, we're turning to that time for our makeup moodboards – but with a modern, festive twist to carry us through one of the busiest social months of the year.

BROWN LIPS

A signature look of all the 90s It girls, brown lips can make you stand out at any festive parties. The shades now come with improved formulas, better texture, and a wider range of undertones to suit every complexion. Breaking down the best way to wear this look, Chriselle Ann Baptista, celebrity make-up and hair artist, shares, "First, over line the lips with a brown liner, followed by a rich cocoa lip shade. Add a little gold eyeshadow or highlighter to the cupid's bow and smudge it out for that festive glam finish."
