These 9 Beauty Looks Were Massive 20 Years Ago

If there's anyone we need to look to for contouring inspo, it's '90s supermodels. You won't find any harsh lines here, as the supermodel sculpt was all about naturally defining the cheeks and lids. Make like Naomi Campbell and keep blending your contour through before adding a nude gloss to finish the look.

This foolproof powder won't leave a chalky or blunt finish. Instead, it'll create killer cheekbones without looking like you've spent six hours carving them in the mirror with a heavy product. 

Baby-faced Kate Moss showed us all how to perfect the minimal makeup look. The skin comes first here, so it's all about achieving a radiant base. A wash of color on the cheeks and Popsicle-stained lips will have you looking like an off-duty model.

This organic coconut-, jojoba- and argan oil–infused pot is all you need for this look. You can swipe it over the cheeks for a natural blush and then add a few layers to your lips. Done and done. 

We can all remember the day when a hair straightener entered our lives for the very first time. While we're all for embracing our natural hair texture now, Jennifer Lopez has us lusting after poker-straight strands with blunt ends.

You'll need a helping hand to get your hair in its sleekest state. Spritz this conditioning mist into your hair to nourish and smoothe flyaways for a smoother finish.

You can always spot a '90s lip when you see it (it's usually a brown base with a brick-like red running through it). Gwen Stefani's dark lipstick shade is an absolute classic, and it can be brought up to date with a matte finish.

The name of this shade says it all. This is the Instagram version of the go-to '90s shade in a budge-proof matte finish. Satin lipsticks in a brownish-red color can look a bit dated, but this is a great way to keep it looking fresh.

There was always a free mini frosted eye shadow or lip gloss that came with our favorite teen magazine. Most of our makeup experimentations resulted with some sort of glitter look, as seen on Julia Roberts. However, if you go for a darker shadow, then you can still make a frosted shadow look modern.

It just doesn't get much prettier than this light-reflecting shadow. It's made with crushed pearls and is an absolute pleasure to glide on to the lids. The deep metallic shades are great on all skin tones too.

Pastel eye shadows (and Alicia Silverstone) will always have a place in our hearts. When done correctly, soft eye shadows will make you look super fashion-forward. The key to nailing this one is to go for a shade that complements your skin tone and eye color.

This palette is as sweet as can be, and it knows how to make an impact with its pastel hues. If you're not ready to go for the full lid, use a liner brush to create a thin wing with one of the shades instead.

Ah, Brandy's signature liner-and-gloss combination. We saw our fair share of bold lip-liner looks during this decade, but if you focus on blending it out and diffusing the line, a brown lip liner can be very now.

Pair this soft gloss with a lip liner a few shades darker to get the ultimate '90s-girl look. Bonus points if you wear it with a slip dress.

Winona Ryder had the grunge-makeup look down. Smudged eyes paired with a neutral lip and super-natural skin is the laid-back look we need in our lives. Bonus points if you do the look with a short, cropped hairstyle.

This will create the best "slept in" eyes. Charlotte Tilbury's eyeliner is all you need for re-creating this look, as the inky pigment and blendable formula make it such a breeze to smudge in.

A '90s hairstyle wasn't complete without a hair accessory—whether it was butterfly clips (oh, the memories), scrunchies, or oversize headbands like the ones Melissa Joan Hart wore. Believe it or not, there's still a place for them in your 2018 wardrobe.

Consider yourself an extra in Clueless with this checked scrunchie. Wear it with a topknot bun or on your wrist for extra style points.
