90s lip colours are
absolutely everything to me at the moment. They’re all I wear. I’m all about
the moody, grungy, earthy tones that were revived by the great Kylie Jenner,
and I’ve truly started to embrace this style. My wardrobe consists of mainly
blacks and greys, and I’ve built a bit of a MAC lipstick collection that
compliments my dark colour scheme. Since I like to think I’m a bit of a grunge
connoisseur, I wanted to share my top 90s shades with you!
Velvet Teddy
Hello, MAC’s most famous
shade ever. If you’ve not heard of Velvet Teddy, you’ve most likely been living
under a rock. It’s the lightest of the bunch, but is still beautifully earthy
and beigy on the lips. This is my everyday lip right now, and I just love the
warmth it gives my makeup.
Faux
Faux is the pinkiest
shade, but it’s still muted and mauvey and beautiful beyond belief. This was
actually the first 90s shade I picked up (because when I went to buy Velvet
Teddy, it was out of stock). Faux has a slight shimmer, but again, it’s wonderfully
wearable and is a perfect everyday 90s nude.
Taupe
I picked this baby up on
my 21t birthday about a month ago, and it’s so pretty. It’s definitely darker
than the previous two, but it’s much woodier and warmer, whilst still being
earthy and flattering. The matte finish is like velvet, and I’ve bee rocking
this for dinners, drinks and evenings out lately.
Whirl
The lipstick version of
MAC’s incredible lip pencil really rocked my world. It’s ten out of ten for
pigmentation, comfort and longevity. The colour is so stunning; probably my
favourite of the bunch. It’s darker again, and therefore I love it for
evenings. The brownish, mauvey tones compliment my paler complexion, though I
know it looks beyond beautiful on my darker skinned friends too.
Paramount
Paramount is the most
stunning 90s red lip, ever. You get that? EVER! This brick red shade with warm
brown undertones screeeams 90s glam, and warms up my skintone perfectly whilst
packing a dressed up, dolled up punch. This is my go-to red lip now, and again,
the matte finish is flattering as anything and feels comfy on the lips.
I’ll definitely be doing
some lip swatches in the future, simply because these shades are beautiful and
I really want to show off how gorgeous these shades all are. My 90s picks are
stunning, and they really are my favourites of my entire MAC collection. Which
is your favourite? Are there any other 90s lipsticks I should try?
Lots of love,
Jasmine x
