How Goth Makeup in the 90s Was Really Done by CHERRY DOLLFACE

- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- I see a lot of videos of baby goths re-creating the glory days that they were born well after. Let me tell you… I started high school in 1996 and We didn’t contour or use eyeshadow or even think about our eyelashes or brows. We used three products if not less and we did it badly because no one had UA-cam to learn by.
You saw club goths wearing the full white make up or corpse paint… But this is what us everyday suburban Teenagers did to look super cool. extra points if you used a lighter to bring your wet and wild eyeliner back to life.
It’s fun to recreate looks from the past with a modern twist… but I assure you, you young guns are doing it with way more skills and way more tools.

That eyeliner was carrying our whole make-up routine
She's got it so right. I miss that mascara.
100% that and a powder compact, mascara, lip smackers. That's the whole makeup routine lol
@@tannaerosoh i have the mascara i love it!
It still does. That's really all I wear is black eyeliner. I still use it for everything lol. Eyebrows, lightly. Lipliner, smudged lightly with chapstick. And Damn dg stopped carrying wet n wild about 6 months a year ago
It was the holy Grail
Bruh the sharp spots on the wood eyeliners got me every time
Oh, yes - that or the tip would constantly break off.
That's the whole point of it.
LOL YES
To this day I hate wooden pencils lol 😂
😂yes
Don’t forget the occasional burning of the eyeliner tip with a lighter to melt it so it would “go on smoother and darker” 😂
Oh I wasn't alone 😂 🔥
You can stil do that with modern eyeliners, it's even what makeup artists do lol
Yes we sure did 😂😂
My big sister did this! Omg flashback memory 😅😅😅
I remember that. 😂
NOT THE WET AND WILD EYELINER PENCIL 😂 YASSSS!!! She tells no lies 🙅🏻♀️
Sleeping in it was my preferred method ✌️
This is it. This is the most accurate one. And boy does it hurt. Remember trying to use that shitty liner but there'd be one spot that the wood was still on and you'd scrape it all along your eye? I do. ☹️
I used to soften the liner with a lighter, it helped so much. You just had to be careful not to over do it.
@@mermaliade6631 to this day I keep a lighter in my makeup bag for pencils that are acting up 😂
I had to touch my eyelid because--oof, I felt that 😅
OH MY GOOODDDDDD HAHAHHA I had a memory pain in my lid reading this. Ouch. That pink mascara was like the only mascara everyone had too 😂
Yes, girl!
This video should be archived for historical information.
This.
😂❤
I can 100% see this on loop in a history of fashion exhibit in the Smithsonian Museum of American History
There were 666 likes when I got here. The ex-goth in me for a split second wanted to leave it, but the born again Christian in me clicked the thumbs up. 😂
@@kristinathomas5890 theres absolutely nothing wrong with being goth
There's everything wrong with giving up the fight against the things that made you that sad in the first place, and giving in to be supported by the people that will support born again christians (because that's the only reason anyone is ever born again, the Christian support)
I got to the point where I could apply this entire face in the middle school bathroom stall with no mirror. This is the realest "alt makeup" tutorial on the internet.
I have literally never been this called out in my life
Same! This was literally my exact makeup routine in the late 90's. There was always a group of us in the bathroom doing our makeup before class started lol
Omfg! I feel you lmfao 🤣🤣
The beauty of the combo is that the mascara spends so little time on the lashes before it becomes another layer of the black shadow around the eyes
True that!
90s Grunge/Goth is really more of a patina than a method of makeup.
@@_kmCarterLOL OMG that's hilarious and absolutely true 😂
Mine didn't it stayed all day and Did not skip
Haha so true! 😂
In the early 2000s too. Only time you could buy black eyeshadow, lipstick and fingernail polish was halloween so you had to stock up if you wanted to wear it throughout the year.
It wasn't like that for me
Late 90s/early 2000s I was getting white face powder and black eyeshadow/lipstick from Hot Topic because my dad would buy it for me and I didn't care what people thought. I was dressing for me, not to be anything or impress anyone lol
What do you mean?
YES I REMEMBEE
And then.... AH AHHHHHH!!!! HOT TOPIC happened.
and it tasted like black crayon wax.
I never felt "alt enough" because I couldn't do the fancy makeup looks. This really helps my confidence. It sucks that makeup has to look so damn perfect now or you get judged
yeah, ironic that we were rejecting the norm and now goths have their own norms they are pressured like hell to adhere to.
Yes f that s
Ugh, yeah. Alt/goth just feels like a label to me in a lot of cases lately, and not one that feels very freeing. People try to peg me into that box IRL a lot and I'm like look dude. I'm not goth.
Horror movies bore me to death. I don't accessorize a ton. I have exactly one tattoo and one piercing. I only listen to industrial music which isn't even goth. Absolutely EMBARRASSING. People call me goth in front of others and I'm so quick to shut it down!
Imposter syndrome is huge. I take inspiration, but don't identify and I STILL feel like a fake! What even is that?
That was an attempt at commiseration. Hope I didn't hijack the thread. Imposter syndrome SUCKS!
@@Solaceon All support and love over here ❤️
I couldn't afford the fancy clothes and accessories, and I definitely felt like a lower class goth 😂😭
80s goth here. We did the siouxsie liner some did the brows...not me! I did use a super light foundation amd powder. I worked in cosmetics. We also used the darkest of burgandy lipsticks princess Borghese had a nice one. Black lipstick would come around at halloween...lol.
👍 I liked a more vampirish Victorian look (despite not having money for the right dresses) so I wore lots of burgundy or blood red lipstick too. But I sometimes got bored on random days and out came the black or neon yellow lipstick! 😂
@kristinathomas5890 I loved the vampire or witchy look as well! Tell me you had the pointy buckle boots! Lol. I also wore monkey boots . Lots of crushed velvet and black lace. Fishnet and patchouli oil...lol... and of course smoked the djarums 🖤 I loved 45 grave , so I had the whole goth punk thing going on.
@@MrHowdyThatsNotNice im a teen goth/punk here and its so cool to see that the subculture is alive! I usually go for an 80s look and 45 grave is one of my favorite bands. So cool!
Right on point with a burgundy lip
I did the Siouxsie and the Banshees eyebrows and liner. Lol. And pointy toe buckle boots. Bringing back some memories haha! 💀🕶️🧷☠️
People don’t understand how hard it was to actually find makeup. Now it’s everywhere
No one had foundation light enough in the 90s. NO. ONE. Everything was the same boring beige and lipstick was just 6 different shades of orange.
@@WobblesandBean I did, but I was shade matched at the Lancome counter in Macy's. Maybe that's the difference. 🤷🏼♀️
@@WobblesandBeanI'm 45. We used Ben Nye or we used light cover girl concealer. But Ben Nye was by far the best back then shoot I still use it when I go out.
And cool colors of hair dye. Only found in like a windowless upstairs shop in Ann Arbor or something.
@@WobblesandBeanI had foundation, cheap-ass but there was foundation. Not sure why everyone is saying there was no foundation. Although usually I just used concealer and CORN STARCH. 😂
This is how I remember them in high school 2011. They were chill people
People were always so afraid of the goth people in high school. But they were so nice ???
@@sakurasravenI don't think make up made them rude and bi*chy but it was probably a way to keep people away. 😂
@gigidotto9014 no, it didn't! People just thought that 🤷
@@sakurasraven I don't know either way got nothing against goth styles 🤣
@@gigidotto9014 i don't either! Just common misconceptions, I guess!
Traveling or staying over friends house was a breeze - all you needed was that damn black eye liner pencil! No fancy make up bags, no double cleansing (regular soap was good enough if you felt like it), no layers of foundation/concealer. I miss those simple years!
new makeup routine just dropped hell yeah
I know for a fact that at least a few of the alt girls in the 2000's counted the days until just after Halloween so they can buy the entire stock of black lipstick, eyeliner, mascara, etcetera.
Yes I did.
Don't forget spray on hair colors
I do this for my blue mascara, but they didn't stock it this year and now I may have to hack/diy some clear stuff
I am 50. This took me back to 1989.
Black eyeshadow used as contour. Black eyeliner used as lipstick. Maroon lipstick used as eyeshadow. More eyeliner and mascara on eyes. And a good dusting of cover girl pressed powder in Ivory.
I had a black Mohawk so the eyeliner moved from the corner of my eye, onto my skull in spiderweb patterns or vines. So fun.
u are literally so cool
That was exactly me in like 2002 as well, including the Covergirl powder in Ivory 😂 the lipstick on the eyes always caked together after 5 minutes so you’d had to resmudge it all day
Had to have that Covergirl powder in Ivory!
OMG!! That powder also smelled like NOXEMA!!! 🤮😫
Why did it smell like that??!
Right here with you, except I'm 51 now lol❤
Can confirm - applying the wet n’ wild eyeliner, sleeping in the eyeliner and then applying more eyeliner the next day was my go to look for most of high school.
I was an 80’s Goth/punk/death metal head, and I can attest to this. We bought our whole years supply (or 5 finger discount) during Halloween. It was like xmas for us. Our clothes, stockings, socks, shoes, even lingerie was bought during October and sometimes during February (big discount on black underwear). Best grunge was found at thrift stores and church giveaways and yard sales for jewelry.
U should write an ebook. 100% accurate and still great advice
Don't forget warming the eyeliner with a lighter!
Oh shit! Wow! I did that.
Thankfully now companies make actually good black eyeliner so it unnecessary now unless you still use a crappy/super cheap black eyeliner.
@@kelsey2333 I did used to steal the .99¢ ones tho....
@@kelsey2333there's good things about that lighter-needing liner. Maybelline pencils, the old (Edit the short red ones) type that are still $4 for 2 from the 1920s are hard as hell but warmed with a liner they will stay on through everything but a day on waterslides but you can swim and it will stay on for cheap. Great for brows too
That's what I said when I was found with a lighter 😂
The folks doing 90s inspired looks who actually contour crack me up, they definitely look amazing but….it’s such a contrast to back in the day!
Contouring absolutely was not a thing back then and the only people I ever saw doing it, we're drag queens! 💯 No offense, I love drag queens .. the first time I saw a man sculpt his face with six different shades of foundation and or concealer and then, blend blend blend and being like, "WTF kind of sorcery is this?!"😮
@@p0ison_0ak33lol when I was 16 in 2014 I learned to contour from drag queens on UA-cam! I think the digitization of drag queen wisdom carried us into our modern era
@@p0ison_0ak33 I was doing my makeup in the 90s and never heard of contouring until about 2018.
not, to be that person but,,,isn’t that the point of “inspired” vs “authentic” 😭?
Oh we had bronzer, but it went all over the face - and that was 1999-2000, no earlier. And that was the beach loving girls of course.
The micro bangs add that lil touch 💅🏽
This, guys, gals, & nonbinary pals is EXACTLY what it was like!! We barely had the internet in our teens, and so there wasn’t any tutorials or anything to go off of other than websites like VampireFreaks or VampireRave. We 90’s goths stocked up on all the black makeup we could during Halloween, and made it LAST. And yes, it wasn’t as glamorous as makeup is today. We were grungy little bats, and we still rocked the shit out of it. 🤘🏻🥰🖤🦇
Finally someone being real about 90s makeup 🤘 We were definitely minimalists back then.
This was only done by the goth crowd. There were other makeup looks too.
Minimalist = broke 😂
Also with basics like shampoo and shower gel as an example. One shampoo and one washing agent (mostly a piece of soap) for everybody in the household to share, but I had one whole tube of ultra sticky, plasticky “hair gel” to myself, which was so cool back then.
The hair would stand straight up like hedgehog quills for hours; if it didn’t rain on it that was.
Exactly. It's so funny to watch the 90s goth or 90s grunge tutorials on youtube and tiktok, people now make hundreds of steps with primer, foundation, highlighter, contouring, several eyeshadow, eyelashes lol kids today have no idea how it really was back in the day. It was all matte, simple and cheap and we still looked awesome.
@@xenyaval3071Yes, we did! And we were glowing anyway ✨
The sleeping in your eyeliner is so accurate. It was so annoying that my makeup looked better after a night out than when I actually applied it 😵💫
On the other side, you knew when you wenrt out that things would only get better XD
i still do that to this day
@@weirdLEXbutok Me too! Maybe that's why I still look young - I don't wash my face or apply creams etc, I sleep in my makeup. LOL
Yep just wrap TP around your finger and lift up to get the "bags" out 😂
Literally! You just took a Q tip and cleaned up the worst of the new dark circles and went to school in last nights make up, and got compliments on it 🤣
God I remember slept in my eyeliner for days, mostly because even when you washed it off it was still there 😂
As someone who had no goth friends and no internet i feel so proud i somehow managed this look. Natural evolution of the goths 🖤
As an 80's Goth, things got easier when wet n wild came out, but most of us used a lighter to heat the hard ass eyeliner we stole from our moms to achieve the look.
Hot wax still brings back memories.
That old school maybelline pair or red packaged blacked eyeliner. Yep!
OMG - I had forgotten about the Maybelline brow pencil that had to be heated. Flashbacks to 1986 and doing my makeup on the bus to school.
@@GenXGamerGirl_ yes! using a lighter!
OMG THE RED MAYBELLINE EYELINER STICK AND A LIGHTER BAHAHAHAHA😂😂😂 I was doing that in the 2000s
I remembered learning that trick from Marisa Tomei in Untamed Heart with Christian Slater! Oh those were the days.
I kind of miss the days when everyone and their dog wasn’t a master makeup artist and we all just used to wing it with what we had.
A simpler, freer, more innocent, in some ways better time
So very true. Urban Decay made some amazing colors in the 90s but it was too expensive for us! I got to say I had the most amazing clothing, mostly from name brand clothing and being creative!
100% accurate. I recall closely guarding the ONE black cheap Halloween lipstick I owned.
I love how this entire tutorial is a pencil, great lash, and Lip Smackers. Accurate
i lived it. wrong!
What’s wrong about it? I lived it too and it’s how I remember…
Thank you so much for this! Too many baby bats out here think you need all this expensive fancy makeup for a goth look and really all you need is one decent eyeliner.
Facts 😂
“Baby bats” too cute🖤
@@BuefardSpencer I came here to say that. Love the 'baby bats'
One eyeliner and a dream 🖤
So true. And we did not use foundation. We stole Oil of Ulay or similar moisturiser & added a scattering of neutral pressed powder. Sculpting? No, you actually needed good bone structure back then! 😉
The accuracy! Oh how I miss those days.
Still a stellar and resourceful way of getting this done.
I'm so happy my fellow 90s goth are thriving. Love you all. Crushed velvet top and pleather pants, knee high military surplus boots, too many cheap silver necklaces and rings. Trent Reznor in my ear and horror movies after school.
Xoxo stay weird and beautiful
You're bringing back memories. Very good.
Love you back! I am still Goth to this day!!
Don't forget those of us who experienced our first WLW awakening with and wanted to be Faizura Balk from The Craft! 🖤 Or Heathers, Beetlejuice, and Edward Scissorhands era Winona Ryder!
TRENT REZNOR!!! YES!!! And Ministry's "Everyday is Halloween"🎃🎵🎶🎵
@@cannibalisticrequiemBeetlejuice was my call to the shadows 🤘
In an era of stand up tanning beds and going to them was a staple of our youth, Goth kids didn’t even realize they were preserving their future skin to be ageless perfection, wow✨you r gorgeous!! ❤
Truth. I never went anywhere without sunscreen. And sunglasses. I may not look 25, but I don’t have crow’s feet!
Hell yeah! 57 now no wrinkles, we perfected the moontan and saved our skin
Indoor kids ftw
It's funny, my cousin was a preppy girl who relentlessly tanned, and I was goth until I discovered light pink in my 20s. She looks at least 10 years older than I do, and I'm almost 40.
Digging the equivalent to a no. 2 pencil into my eyeball isn’t my idea of fun. Spend a few dollars, stop stealing, and take care of your skin!!
This actually makes me feel a lot better about not wearing foundation and and ton of other stuff, I kind of wear the bare minimum just mascara and blush and I sometimes worry about not doing more
“Usually we stole it”
Nothing has ever rung more true 😂
Goths: the most polite and well spoken group of people I've ever encountered ❤
We're actually quite shy
As the Voltaire song says "A gaggle of goths is a peaceful sight. We'd do anything to avoid a fight."
I could write a dissertation on goths right here in the comments section, but I won’t.
I agree- best young wise intelligent kind upstanding people I ever knew were goths. But there was also a very small sprinkling of psychotic evil kids in the mix too. They misread the vibe. Or maybe they came around to feed off of the kindness and sympathy. And they probably got it too.
@@sonofhibbs4425 Very true.
I’m 60 in October, I have long green hair, I still wear knee high goth boots and I’m still basically doing my makeup like this, just with better products (yay for black and purple eye shadow!) Black lipstick means not shredding my lips with eye liner 😀 I don’t remember a single individual from back in the day who used contouring- I still don’t have a clue how to use it 😂
you're an inspiration
@@pendafen7405 Life is just too short to ever agree to being boring in any way- clothing as art is a human right as far as I’m concerned. 💜
OK contouring. Has been a game changer. A lovely light foundation, contour with barely a shade darker (is how I do it anywho). And that extra skeletal vibe goes sooo hard. It was a simpler day back then wasn't it.
I bet even when I’m 60 my parents will still call this a phase 😂
@@notatallfunctional Lifestyle choices are always thought to be phases by those kinds of parents Lol They are the people I phased out Imho
The nostalgia! Took me back to one of my favorite concerts. Got to see Nine Inch Nails with David Bowie. They sang Hurt together. It was iconic and shoulda been a number 1 single.
Oh,,,, my,,,, god,,,,, Jesus yes yes and more yes. Haha, my, you nailed it. It was exactly like that!!!! From shoplift to smudge to sleep. And all in the 90s ❤
Halloween was THE best time for goth girls in the 90s. We bought out every damn store of black lipstick and face paint.
I still look at the selection. Old habits die hard
It wasnt just goth girls. It was all goths
And fishnets!! It was impossible to find fishnets other than at Halloween
That's how we rolled in the 90s. Once I found a dark lipstick called "Cat walk." I was so excited, and hopefully hopeful, to find black lipstick in the summer. It was purple. I still wore it with black eyeliner as lip liner.
Never found black only dark burgundy unless it was Halloween. Sometimes not even then.
I found the black lipstick at a Halloween store. That’s the only time you could find it. I took care of that lipstick like if it was gold. 😂
Also, the lipstick has a funky smell but I still applied it. 😂
It was probably rinsed 😅
That wet n wild liner was my life! 😂 Eyes and lips! Balling on a budget!
Thank you for adding the extremely vital and important step that everyone forgets. It is imperative to the process that one must have as many layers of eyeliner on their pillow as they have on their lids 😂
I actually really love this look. I also love the fact that it was affordable and minimal but very effective. I forgot that you don’t have to take a long time to do your makeup to create a look. So many make up style even if they’re ‘simple’ seem so complicated today.
Agreed! I can put on makeup in 5 minutes and completely change the look! I guess it helps when I do the same makeup everyday for a decade. Get faster with practice 😂
Not only are they complicated, they require about $50 or more in product to actually complete. And also the most "simple" eyeliner look can take up to 15 minutes
Yup, that's because they realise that consumers are willing to spend even more money on even more make-up as long as they make all of those products the "norm"
two simple products (three if you count lipbalm) and you're done, I love it!
This was my go-to, combined with got2be glued freeze spray for my hair. 😂
I was an emo child in the late 2000s early '10s and this is pretty much how we did our makeup too (although, black eyeshadow was easier to ste- i mean purchase). 90s goth babes walked so 2000s emo nerds could run!
Onggggg that smudged, wet n wild *stolen* eyeliner .. 💯💯💯
Gawd, ya NAILED IT. 😅😅 Every single aspect is on point!!!! 😂😂😂
This is actually correct, i've seen so many try to recreate it and fail so badly, the only way to recreate it correctly is if you actually were there. We didn't have all the stuff we have now, our entire make up consisted of a lipstick, a black eyeliner and a mascara.
I remember that being totally true, and now we have tons of options. However, I still feel like companies and corporations are overdoing it, I think there are too many options now because most of them do the same thing but cost different (expensive) prices and have different names just to fool people.
I also believe that if women could look good back then without having 10 layers of things on their face at a time, then there's no reason that shouldn't still be possible today. 🤷♀️
@@trophyscene5015 True, there's just too much options in everything, like how many blushes does a person need. I've never worn foundation, I tried it once and don't like how it feels on my face, I only wear eye makeup and lipstick, bit of blush and highlighter, but my makeup is basic I only buy when I run out of something. Over consuming makeup started when UA-cam beauty influencers were reviewing different makeup every week making out people needed every new palette, even now brands are putting out new stuff every month, there's no need for it. Makeup is meant to enhance beauty not be slathered on.
@@trophyscene5015 and let's just be honest here. Only drag queens wore all that makeup back then. And that's exactly what alot of women look like to me with all that heavy makeup on.....drag queens.
THAT’S IT!!!
Stargazer white foundation is allowed for the friend who's slightly better off than you and can afford lacy dresses and glue-on vampire teeth.
There's always one.
The 90s was a magical time...I miss it
Eyeliner was everything and you used it for everything.
The layers of mascara!!! Yessss!
Makes me remember when Wal-Mart and Target were not the makeup bargain stores they are today. Anyone remember going to K-Mart or Venture. One of my friends got caught stealing eyeliner pencils from K-Mart. Oh, and we would hit the eyeliner with a bic lighter to get a darker look lol. This is hilarious and so accurate.
I only had Meijer, CVS and Rite-Aid within walking/biking distance, and Kmart was already rapidly disappearing by the time I was old enough to drive.
Yes! The lighter trick worked like a charm. As I got older and had eye shadows I learned the trick of dampening the brush before application to make it more pigmented and smooth. We were a generation of ingenuity, and making the best of what we had lol
We had a discount chain called F&M where we got our cheap makeup. My god, I miss that store to this day 🥲
Omg! Venture AND kmart!! Blasts from the past! I miss shopping in the 90s the most!! Lol
Yep!! K-mart was the best!! I was taught the lighter trick by my older cousins. It worked !!😂
This is 100% accurate. I was born in 1980. My Christmas Ball picture for high school in 1997 sported this look in a black goth dress with my BF who had long black hair. Lol.
To add- this was also the start of "Hot Topic" who at the time was trying to monitize off of the goths. They were too expensive for us and sucked. Lol. We thrifted our clothes.
I was born in 1980 too
I hear Depeche Mode softly playing while I read this….
Thrifted pretty much everything post-punk DIY, like dying hair with unsweetened kool-aid powder and using super-glue for spikes. Wearing ripped up jeans, Tshirts, tights, etc. It was anti-fashion fashion.
Same vintage here! I remember telling someone at school I was got new shoes on the weekend... Well, new for me! I was easily the 2nd or maybe 3rd owner (but leather boots last forever!).
Exact same but 1985 and it was prom with my girlfriend... I was in a black goth dress with black lipstick and my gf was in a white goth dress with zero makeup... All us theatre kids showed up to prom for half an hour then left to a hotel to adjoining few rooms for a great party
I rocked the GOTH.Look back in the 80's and I can vouch for this young lady "s TECHNIQUE 👌
One EDIT = You Forgot to Mention how we used to LIGHT the end of the Black Pencil with our BiC Lighter to MELT IT for Easier Application. 👍
You had me at “usually we stole it” 😅😂
Literally. Finally someone who gives real representation to the 90s as a goth. I condone this tutorial. I thought I was the only one who used wet and wild black eyeliner for both eyes and lips- and that cotton candy lipsmackers is my favorite!!!
Oh and you're absolutely right about black eyeshadow. It was almost impossible to find.
I don't think I actually had any black eyeshadow until I splurged and got one from sephora for myself as a birthday gift in the early 2000s
@@LMCorvinus And we daydreamed about the day when we were in a famous band and could finally buy MAC Carbon.
I found one at the galleria in Dallas and used it super sparingly. It just wasn’t available at all!!!! Not even if you were lucky enough to have a Merle Norman nearby. No one made black eye shadow.
My first black eye shadow was from Victoria’s Secret in 2001!! It was awful, it was soooo sheer!
I got my first black eyeshadow in 2000! It was my holy grail 😂
"She's Wet n Wild, a typical 90's child" -Sneaker Pimps
Thanks for the nostalgia!
love sneaker pimps! never realized they had that lyric but soooo fkkin true!
here bc i also love sneaker pimps!!
What song was that in?
Oh i remember Sneaker Pimps did a song with Marilyn Manson (Long Hard Road Out of Hell) and MTV would only air it late at night. It actually scared my 12 yr old self 🤦🏻♀️😂. I loved that song though!
@@Oyuki-Mayonesa Post Modern Sleaze
Phenom. You look so young.
I remember the wet n’ wild days. I was 12 in the mid-80’s. How old were you?!
Eye makeup is amazing! And you stole it 😂😂😂
Love this 🖤
Wet n wild🫡🤪the slept in look 💚💅🏾
This was my 90s grunge make-up minus the lips.
I definately slept in it on occasions too and you'd just add some new eyeliner to it in the morning.
That pink mascara with the green lid controlled my life. I'm still convinced it's magic
Contour and all that. We didn't know her.
😂❤
They still sell it! And it's going strong! I still buy that stuff along with a couple other brands.
Yep. And I'd carry my eyeliner with me to reapply the waterline through the day 😂
Omggg I was born in 1999 but I used that pink and green mascara when I was like 13 years old 😮 I didn't know it was a goth staple, amazing
I've had the occasion to be in professional makeup chairs a few times in my life, and the most commonly used (that I've seen) has been that Great Lash. It's been popular for 50+ years for a reason.
I still use it!😂
That crunchy dry pencil scraping my eye and lip skin off will never leave my memories
Especially if you have chapped lips it will grab the chapped skin
That's because you forgot to touch it to the lightbulb in the bathroom so it would get melty and glide smoothly..lol
The Great Lash mascara!! Omg that takes me back, that mascara and my eyepencil were all i ever used
Yess, i remember finding black lipstick and eyeshadow in a Halloween store. I was so excited. Never saw it anywhere else
I used straight corn starch - right out of the box - as my foundation. The early 90s were a fun time.
I was just commenting the same thing!!!!
@rcktquen1 old kids on the block!
I remember my mom using CornSilk powder.
Omg, forgot about that. I did too, although, remember that Japanese “rice powder” powder that came in plastic square box with a Geisha image on the front?
@lifenotbills hahahha omg what were we thinking! I have to say though, I still would have taken this route than ever stepping a toe into a tanning bed, using tanning spray or laying out in the sun with oil on. I'm 50 now and have very few wrinkles or age spots vs my sister how now kicks herself for it and it covered with wrinkles and looks 20yrs older than me. Hahahha
And sometimes smudged red lipliner as red eyeshadow because we didn’t have edgy eyeshadow colors yet
The kids these days don’t know how good they have it. 😄
I remember using a bright red blush as eyeshadow. Groundbreaking haha
@@erose3144 I also had a red blush that became so many eye looks! I think it was Avon of all things
This was my go-to!
Hell yes. We didnt piss around with pruning and preening. Our personalities rocked.
Lip smackers was in every make up bag in the 90's😂 And wet n wild love this!
The ACCURACY! As a Black Punk/House kid...we did this in the 80s also...
Being from Chicago, it was definitely easy intermingling my love for DeepHouse, Goth/Rock, and others. And don't get me started on the clubs and skating. 😂 ❤ 😊
I liked what I liked, and didn’t care who didn't like it.
I never felt the need to be *all* one thing or the other, and never saw a good reason to 'choose'...so I didn't. 🤷🏽♀️ 😂
What an amazing time to exist. ❤️
P.S.... I'm now knocking on 50, so the former "weird" is considered eclectic & eccentric. 😅
@@nickie7nicole7 Yesss!....I'm in my 50s now....Listen....Our generation are PIONEERS!😁
i appreciate this. my momma had me young and she was a goth 90s teen. it wasnt until she got married and settled down and two incomes, and in the 2000s is when she started with eyelashes and expensive foundations.
giving me pleasant nostalgia about my middle school years 🥰
And it’s an absolutely timeless look. Three products. Boom.
REALEST makeup video on this look EVER
Just sitting here cracking up because this is so accurate. Black liner for lips, lashes, and lines!😂😂😂
Yesssss ohh i remember 😂 I absolutely had the wet n wild liner. That smudge keeps it so easy 🖤
Black eyeshadow was nowhere to find ever! I still have mine from the 90's! Don't use it anymore but can't get myself to throw it out ever!
Really? Because I saw black CoverGirl eyeshadow singles at Walmart when I was a teen.
Manic panic did a line of shadows. Colours were amazing. Wish I still had mine. Onlu ever saw it in one shop in Toronto and never again. A lovely red before we could get red for that
One of the best parts of this makeup routine is that you needn't be careful or precise while applying your mascara. In fact, that line of mascara you'd inevitably get just above the lashline often went harder (was a deeper black) than that 99 cent Wet n Wild liner. Not to mention if you really went in with the mascara it would fill in the lashline, and I'm telling you your liner will, to this day, never look better.
Hats off & salute to that 1 wet n wild pencil
This is so accurate. I'd also get the Cover Girl compact powder in the lightest shade. And sometimes found black lipstick especially during Halloween.
First accurate one I've seen so far. Clothes and accessories were DIY also because Hot Topic was expensive and out of most of our budget, we'd spend that money on CDs and boots if we ever went into one.
This explains the hours girlfriends would spend at HT browsing the racks and shelves.
They were thinking, “How can I make this at home?”
Also,
“How can I steal this?”
Even in the 00s and early 10s, it was hard to find affordable black eyeshadow. I don't think I saw single pots of black in the drugstore until 2014. My friends ordered loose pigments from indie brands. I didn't have $16 to waste on a dimebag that would inevitably spill all over your bed.
I was definitely able to get single pots of black eyeshadow at drugstores in 2006, maybe earlier.
Barry M eyeshadow pots! The sheer PAIN when you knocked one over...
@@Blue_Sonnet I hadn't heard of that brand until now. Their metallic eye shadow looks really pretty online.
Yes! 🙌🏼
This and WnW 508 were my go-to look! But you had to use the lighter to get the smoother application otherwise your eyelids were raw.
That slept in eyeliner look was/is fire
Exactly. There were no tutorials in our day. We taught ourselves!
That mascara is so nostalgic for me XD i hope they never change the pink and green, it brings me back.
This mascara is 'The bomb' though I still use it today! 🤌
Long sleeves in the Walgreens, so helpful. I'm 38 now, yes we shoplifted a lot lol
I love the frugal minimalist approach
I love that before the internet as we now know it, the amount of things you think you need to buy is tremendously reduced. Of course we were being sold things in commercials but the inundation of “you need this insulated cup immediately!!” we have now and the point, click, buy we have access to is nuts. So yeah, we used only a few products, no brushes or sponges and that was it!
All the new sponges we didn’t have beauty blenders none of that setting spray makeup was so easy then
But it never stayed on for me until I started using setting spray!! @@PandaHead602
@@PandaHead602no primer or highlighter or contour either
I never really cared for mainstream makeup tutorial videos but I've watched a few over the last chunk of years. It's baffling to me the amount of crap folks use as if they're all necessities. How many freaking oils does your face need before you put on foundation??? Just slap some Vaseline or lotion on like a sane person and move on. LOL
The effects this is having on the kids is really disturbing. You've no doubt seen those wild Sephora Kid videos. Bleh.
We also weren’t taking selfies so we actually looked at ourselves so much less too 😆
You kinda just did your makeup quickly and forgot about it, other than lipstick maybe
What a flashback you just gave me but yeah you're 100% right that pretty much was my makeup routine when I went out
That black, wet and wild eyeliner was multipurpose and easy to put in your pocket. I myself did my make up like a Latina gang member to match my very high crunchy bangs.
Insanely accurate. This unlocked some core memories that had fallen to the abyss of time
Still looks great. Bring it back.
“Usually we stole it” made me laugh bc it’s true!! It was not uncommon to see a girl stuff an eyeliner down her shirt in the local grocery stores 😂
Love it! 💯 Facts of our lives 😂😂😂😂ty for the blast from the past
Hahaha the memories come flooding back watching. Yes we were all broke.
I skipped eating school lunches to save the dollar for cassettes and make up. Thrift store finds were beloved.
@@sonofhibbs4425 I thought I was the only one who saved my lunch money! Granted, I was in a catholic high school where the other girls had money...
That is exactly how I did my makeup in the 90s. Cause buying black lipstick and eye shadow was hella expensive. 100% accurate for a lot of us. Glad you made this.
