The 4 most popular makeup styles over 4 decades
1960s: Louis Vuitton
Recipe: (Beehive puffy hair + headband) + thick mascara – lipstick.
Beehive hair literally means `beehive`, this bun hairstyle with a white headband is the clearest image of the beauties of the 1960s.
– Shady eyelashes: Do you love eyelashes that move people’s hearts?
– Only highlight the eyes, don’t combine them with beehive hair as it will create a heavy feeling, make your hair `intentionally messy` by spraying glue and teasing like in show 3.1 Phillip Lim.
– Pink lips: The secret here is to use a neutral lip pencil and highlight a light smoky eye with the color of old cigarette stains.
1970s: Moschino Cheap and Chic
Formula: (Long hair + Curls) + Blue eyeliner + Blush New curls
At the Moschino Cheap and Chic and Viktor & Rolf shows, wavy curls dominated the catwalk.
– Blue eyes like the sea: In both the Moschino Cheap and Chic and Stella McCartney shows, the models’ eyes were highlighted in blue with different shades on the lower eyelids.

1980s: Jean Paul Gaultier
Formula: Classic red lips + Colored eyes + (Contouring – Blending color)
– Red lips, redder: Not just simply wearing red lipstick, at the Missoni show, famous make-up expert Lucia Pieroni added neon colored powder on top of red lipstick to create impressive fire-colored lips.
