H O W T O | 90s Inspired Kylie Jenner Makeup Tutorial







Hey everyone! I'm sure you're all aware of the infamous makeup that Kylie Jenner has been sporting everywhere... People of all ages are trying their best to imitate, but what's funny is this is the same style of makeup that was around in the 90's, the age of Spice Girls, Friends, TLC etc. From scouring YouTube, I found not many were in the way of 'Women of Colour' and instead ladies were focusing more on the product or specific colour rather than the technique to achieve the look. 

In this post and in my video that I'll link below, I'll try my best to teach you how to achieve this specific look and tailor it to your face/colour/taste with a few simple steps and key info!


In this picture displaying the gorgeous makeup, I want you to pay close attention to these 5 points that make up the look:

1. High Arched Eyebrows (very popular in the 90's)
2. Soft Natural Smokey/Sultry Eyes with large lashes
3. Fresh dose of Kardashian Highlight of course
4. Bronzed Cheek/Natural Looking Blush
5. Muted Pinks/Browns for lips

The idea is to keep the colour palette on the face very natural using pinks/browns/nudes but using these colours to accentuate your features rather than camoflage.


This colour diagram displays how I used the same colour palette used on Kylie, toned it down for my skin tone.

1. Your Skin Colour
2. Your Eye Crease Colour (Only a couple shades darker to bring out your eyes)
3. Outer V Colour (Just to smoke things out a little)
4. Muted pink lip

Remember keep everything smoked/blended out to keep it natural looking and sultry... NO HARSH LINES. 

I really hope this helped you ladies that have probably watched endless tutorials on how to achieve this look. Keep in mind, all looks are possible; it doesn't necessarily matter if you have the same product or shade, just find what works for you and voila!

Have a great day ladies... I'll put a couple pictures so you can see what the look actually looks like without all the filters etc! And don't forget to share this post/video to all your girlies out there
