Brown lippy
It's the time of the 90's era revival! We've already come as far as plaid skirts, chokers and even flannels around the waist, so do not be phased if this one comes back with a bang - especially with winter approaching. It would make for a more understated alternative to last winters grungey dark purple. Personally, I'm not the hugest fan of brown lipstick/liner as it can make some look like a bit of an aged Agatha. If you're the one who's going to kick start the trend, I would reccommend a reddish/brown shade that may help you steer clear from such criticism.

Thin brows
You never thought you would hear the day, did you? Infact, eyebrows have had their own fashion as far back as 3500 BC.
"Roman women's no-fuss uni-brow was still considered the most desirable characteristic. It was a sign of intelligence and worn by the most notoriously beautiful women of the time."
It's only because of supermodel Cara Delevigne has the 70's bushy brow returned. It's more than likely your kids will one day be stalking through your teenage Facebook photos and cackling at the size of your brows. "It was all the rage" you'll tell them, to which they won't believe (but give them a few years and they will be sporting the look themselves!) Like I mentioned, it's the time of the 90's revival which means two things: heavily tweezed and sharply arched. Below are a few examples of perfectly plucked brows from the history of the brow.

Blatant lip-liner
Probably a repulsive thought to some, but in the 90's it was trends like these that gave girls the edge (like a short fringe would nowadays). The idea is that you apply a darker liner in comparison to your lighter lipstick around your natural lip line! Iconic 90's female trend-setters like Gwen Stefani, Madonna and Drew Barrymore were known for their extroverted styles and blatantly applied lip-liner often played a role! Not to mention it will make you look like a hot puerto rican chola girl.

Full, dewy lips
On there way to the top, a full and dewy lip was the shit in the 90's. Thanks to the infamous Kylie Jenner (who I recently found out was only 17?!), the trend is hurriedly on its way back. For as long as I've known, girls have always been a fan of big lips, but the fuller-top-lip trend is a blast from the past. Although it isn't easy to get the look, it's important that you're using a lip-liner over the entirety of your lips. Removing your cupids bow and applying the liner outside of your natural lip-lines are important to achieving the look.
Below is a tutorial by PixiWoo that will demonstrate how you can recreate the make-up masterpiece.
