Period/Era

1980s Makeup Period/Era Photoshoot

This was a lot of fun because the 1980s was about individual style and bold, bright colours. I love the 80s for its fun-colourful theme of self-expression and sharing your individuality.

This is the time when people began to come out of their comfort zones to be more playful and have fun with various colour combinations.

I went for the rocker-chic theme, as many of the classic rock albums of this era inspired bold makeup for the 80s.

My true inspiration for this makeup look came from researching images of Cyndi Lauper’s looks (with bold eyes, lips and cheeks) of the 80s, as well as listening to my favourite classic rock bands like John Bon Jovi, Motley Crue, Meatloaf, and others.
