90's Lip Look

May 13, 2024

The 90's were an era for iconic beauty that still reigns supreme today. One look that has stuck around since the 90's is the minimal yet classic nude lip. Follow this step-by-step tutorial to achieve this easy, nostalgic look that will create the illusion of fuller lips. 

Steps to Apply Lip Liner

1. Overline the Center

Overline the center of your top and bottom lip using the Power Line™ Plumping Lip Liner in shade HI-DEF HONEY. Connect the lines to the corner of your lips, but this time, draw on the on the natural lip line. This will create a plumper lift effect and a contoured finish. 

2. Soften the Lines

To soften the lip liner lines, flip the pencil around and use the brush side, blending towards the center of your lips, where your lips meet. This will help create a seamless transition between your natural lip line and the overlined center.

3. Line the Sides and Corners

Continue lining the sides and corners of your lips, keeping it tight to the natural lip line. This precise application will enhance the pouty effect. To further contour your lips, fill in the corners with the lip liner. This shading technique will add dimension and shape to your lips.

Lip Gloss

Add Contrast with Lip Polish

Glossy lips were a statement in the 90's. Take a nude lip gloss, like Full-On™ Plumping Lip Polish Gloss in ALLISON, and apply it to the center of the lips. The contrast between the two shades will give you that iconic 90's lip look but with a modern twist. This modern twist is that our Full-On™ Plumping Lip Polish Gloss nourishes, moisturizes and softens while visibly plumping them, which was not the case in many lip products in the 90's.
