    It’s so refreshing hearing someone talking about the big trends, standing back and taking a look at the overarching themes. I think the TikTok generation is constantly going on about “new trends” when in reality they are all under the same umbrella but you, with you wide knowledge of makeup history, can take a step back and look at it all for what it is. It’s a nice slow pace which I appreciate

      I think that's partly due to marketimg. Brands want things to appear "fresh" and "new" so they'll rename old trends. Like Cloud Skin or the Cold Girl Look.
      Then social media picks up on the marketing term and we have a "new" trend, but not really lol

    I was 19 in 1994 and my aesthetic was very much the Drew Barrymore thin dark brows, virtually white eyeshadow all over the eye and a dark, black red lipstick. My contact lenses were most displeased when I tried the grungy eyes however!
    I love the look you’ve done today Lisa but the real joy in this video is the history and your own experiences of that time. I would love it if you’d make more documentaries on the history of make up and it’s trends. The BBC work you did was fabulous ♥️

    I was best friends with Kevyn since he was a teenager and worked with him on many projects..so I thought I would let you know some of his favorite products. He usually prepared skin with Kheils ultra facial moisturizer…the liquid one…his favorite eyeshadow to use was Madeline Mono matte collection because they were so pigmented …the matte black was used to contour the lid and as liner…he use to say I have never seen anything this black! When the face was matte he loved Lancôme cream powder base…the Halston model Chris Royer turned hiim on to it…it was the beginning of him “baking”…she told him put it on heavy under my eyes ..let it sit and then dust it off….h was so excited that day and told me oh wait till I show you this trick!…when makeup became more natural and dewy he’s would lightly use Cody air spun…in the leopard print box. Makeup was so much fun and very creative at that point. I could go on and on but just wanted to give a little input….great video and you Lisa are a great artist.

    1994: I was a 9 years-old French little girl. I always loved the 90's grunge make-up and the earthy tone of that era. Somehow, I stuck with the brown tones in my everyday make-up with a 2023 twist to it. Fantastic video and make-up history lesson. Very enlightening regarding the trends as well. It's quite similar to literature movements, for each era, there is always a counter-movement that follows. It reflects itself in Arts in general, whether it's music, cinema, make-up, etc. It's fascinating. Thank you for this incredible video, Lisa. As always, it's no surprise given that you are truly one of the most talented make-up artists of our time.

    It’s amazing how evocative of a period of history and life a makeup trend can be.

I studied physics and distinctively remember that I should have been revising for a quantum mechanics exam but instead I was sat in front of a mirror plucking my eyebrows to nothing 😂😅.

    What a throwback! Being a teenager in the 90s, this brings back so many memories… I had lots of acne, so I stuck with heavier coverage cream or powder foundations (the ones in compacts you’d apply with a sponge). I always smeared a kohl liner on the eyes just like you did (and never fell out of love with the definition and light it brought to my brown eyes). And then MAC Lipglass ;)
    We only had very expensive luxury classic brands like Chanel and Shiseido, or very bad drugstore products (does anyone remember Gemey?).
    I still remember getting my first YSL touche éclat already in the early 2000s… new products took soooo long to get here…
    My mom never allowed me to pluck my brows so I got away from that trend. In the later nineties I had them a bit more plucked but nothing like that very thin line.
    It’s still a gorgeous look :)

    Keep in mind that back then nobody used primer on their eyelids. I don’t think it existed. A huge part of the greasy eye look was we were just young and greasy. We didn’t really have to add any shine at of the time.
    Things were simpler, and so was our makeup. We didn’t obsess over it or have to show it to anyone. We lined our eyes black, threw on a burgundy lip (maybe), a flannel and went to a coffee shop to read. Try it sometime. Bring it all back.

      I was working in a high end department store when we got the original Bobbi Brown line. We had an exclusive on it for years so I felt ever so chic wearing it. In my humble opinion, it lost something when she sold out to Lauder - now that she's totally away from it, I fear that it's turning into more of the usual, with glitter and silly names for colors instead of the basic descriptive shade names that she started with. Fortunately they still seem to be carrying the original lipsticks that caused such a craze back then.

There were Russell Athletic sweats, plaid-like shirts pieces from GAP and Pendleton a couple of leather jackets. It was a GOLD MINE!! The added bonus was that we could wear the pieces and CONNECT with him. I never got on board with the smudged makeup but I had some fun with the clothes.

    I typically love how light handed you are, and what transformations you can make with your talent and such a light hand. But to me, this is much more wearable than what I would consider to be editorial. Maybe I just don’t understand the term well enough. But I could totally see rocking this look to the grocery store.

    I started wearing makeup in the 90s. I was spot-prone and had lots of redness and I hated what I was seeing on my friends to do with foundation, think that maginot jaw line between too dark foundation and bare neck. So, I lived for that dark eyeliner and dark brown lip look, no base products, because I felt it drew attention away from my skin and put the spotlight elsewhere. From now til then, I’ve always felt much more confident in a dark lip than a nude lip, trends be darned. Suffice it say, Ms. Eldridge’s Decade, in all formulas, is my soulmate lip color! 😍

    Ah 1992, I had just discovered fashion magazines, .I had no clue about makeup, I just loved the looks! From Aucoin to the grungy mid 90s artists like Dick Page or Val Garland made a huge impact on me. I still love undone makeup for "real life". thanks for this lovely nostalgia!

    Loved this, Lisa, as a teenage 90s kid! I was around 15 and this was one of the best times in music, fashion, makeup, and the fashion magazines were the best at this time, if you ask me! I miss the scents, too (I will always love Sun, Moon, Stars by Lagerfeld and Sunflowers by Elizabeth Arden -- anyone else remember that?). I remember the amazing editorials in magazines like Allure, Vogue, Bazaar, and even magazines like Mademoiselle and Seventeen -- I had cut outs and pages scotch-taped onto my wall. Cindy Crawford and Todd Oldham were rockin' it on House of Style (MTV) which I never missed an episode of. Kevin Aucoin was a genius; it was sad when he passed away. I really miss those days. I guess this is the closest we can get to summoning them back. The one thing I don't miss from this year: the plastic child Goody barrettes. They were cool on riot grrls at the time, but there were also a lot of sequins, new fabrics and textures, and iconic lipstick and nail colors that never went out of style.
    PS -- if they ever discontinue Touche Eclat, I think I'd cry.

    I am grinning while watching this video because I’ve just unearthed my FaceForward book by Kevyn Aucoin and was thinking of doing his In Balance look. I think the reason 90’s look will always comeback is because it is such an effortless look but has a lot of impact and can be interpreted in so many ways. It is so classic yet so modern. And I think you interpreted it so well.

There were the cheerleaders with their red lipstick and bright pink cheeks and then there were the rest of the people wearing mostly heavy smeared eyeliner, very light blush and lipgloss but mostly foundation lips. ❤

    In the early 90’s I was in high school, then college from 1992 to 1998. This is bringing back a lot of memories. I never wore a grunge makeup look, but I remember most of my lipstick was Mac - always, always the Spice lip pencil, two browny red lipsticks- one called Paramount and the other I think was Taupe. I had just one soft brown shadow and one beige. I never wore blush or mascara because my lashes were naturally dark. There was this amazing brand called Prescriptives that would custom blend foundation which was amazing as my skin is olive and hard to match and I often had concealer from them too. When Lisa showed those deep plums I do remember having a couple of really dark, purple-berry lipsticks but I don’t remember the brand, I just remember it didn’t wear well. I had L’Oreal black eyeliner that smudged like crazy, but I didn’t wear that everyday, just for going out. I didn’t own a ton of makeup then, not as many brands as there are today and was mostly a broke college student. The Prescriptives custom blend was a splurge for sure! Later on there was a brand of face powder too called T Le Clerc and the color I used was Banane because everything was matte, matte, matte.

I do have two of his books because his aesthetic has always called to me. And I was so surprised by the use of vaseline and Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Cream to get shine. Today there are so many specialized highlighters that it's hard to remember simple products for simple solutions. Thank you for sharing your vast knowledge and this fun retro look.

    This is such a cool look. It's funny, it gives me the feels, despite the fact that I was born in 2000. But I hear that from a lot of people who are in my shoes. I just wish I could piece together what it is about this decade that tugs on the heartstrings of so many. Why it oozes so much nonchalance, freedom and plain cool. I always saw it as a parallel to the 1920's, because the grunge look is similar to the silent film look, the androgynous women's clothing matches too, and there's an overall feeling of letting your hair down and letting your mascara smudge, in search of a more casual approach to life, maybe that's the appeal. But I think the character of Evelyn in The Mummy (1999) showcases very well that similarity to the 20's. The movie is set in the 20's and her makeup gives off this dual vibe, it looks 20s, but also, 90's. Also, I love that you shared the actual products that you used to use back then

    I've been looking for a '90s "demonstration" of makeup just like this, and of course Lisa executes it perfectly. Those who have done iterations of past looks tend to let modern techniques slip through. For example the colors might be on point, but they may have gone for an extra glowy/blushy skin, additional sharp wing, or the pillowy lips. Your advantage is perspective, actually being there to see the makeup trend bloom. I love the authenticity to the culture, the products, and the methods. 😍
