3 90s-Inspired Beauty Trends Hollywood & TikTok Is Loving Right Now
1. Face Gems
What would 90s beauty have been like without Gwen Stefani's stick-on face gems or Cher's crystals? Jodie Turner-Smith sported this look at the 2023 BAFTAs, and made her pastel eyeshadow (we'll get to that in a sec!) pop even more with the help of strategically placed gemstones on her radiant skin.
2. Pastel Eyeshadow
One other turn-of-the-century makeup trend we've been seeing come back is pastel eyeshadow looks, as rocked by Lily Collins. The Emily in Paris star also helped inspire many of us to get French girl curtain bangs, and this pink, shimmering eye look is one for the books!

As seen on BeautyTok, pink isn't the only trendy pastel eye color for spring, as many influencers are opting for baby blues and lilacs as well.
3. Silver Chrome Eyeshadow
Another epic eyeshadow trend we've seen resurface from the 90s is a silvery chrome look. When paired with other classic elements of a smokey eye like thick black liner and voluminous lashes, this is one great way to channel grungy glam, like Kristen Stewart.
