How to Do 80s Makeup and Hair



The 1980s was a time when big hair and extreme makeup were the only way to go. The 80s look is great for special occasions or for every day. By using a little creativity and the following steps, almost anyone can achieve a 1980s makeup and hair look.







Things You'll Need:





Eyeliner



Mascara



Eyeshadow



Powder



Liquid foundation



Makeup brushes and sponges



Lip gloss



Eyelash curler









Step
1



Collect all the necessary supplies to create this look and make sure the face is clean and dry before putting any makeup on.




Step
2



Use a makeup sponge to apply liquid foundation to conceal any imperfections. Now apply loose powder to the face using a large makeup brush.




Step
3



Apply eyeliner to the bottom lid, top lid and to the skin located just below the eye. Next, wipe the eye with the fingers. Apply more if desired.




Step
4



Curl the eyelashes using an eyelash curler. Apply two or three coats of mascara on both the top and bottom lashes. Put a brightly colored eye shadow, in shades like canary yellow, bright purple or aqua green, on the eyelid all the way up to the brow line.




Step
5



Rub on a brightly colored frosty lip gloss. A clear lip gloss mixed with glitter will work just as well.




Step
6



Style the hair by teasing or curling. Add accessories to the hair such as brightly colored pieces of fabric or mesh.
