Makeup trends come and go but if there’s one that always seems to come back every almost every decade, it’s blue eyeshadow. Each time it comes back, though, there’s always a new take on the timeless trend. In the 60s, there were stars like Priscilla Presley or Elizabeth Taylor in the film Cleopatra who packed on pastel blue eyeshadow beneath their huge winged eyeliner and stacked lashes. In the 90s, singer Aaliyah and model Kate Moss at Gucci’s Spring/Summer 1996 show donned midnight blue shades which were smoked out to perfection. In the early 2000s, pale and dusty blue shadow with hints of iridescent sparkles were a huge Y2K trend and we can thank the hit HBO show Euphoria popularized playful eyeliner in bold blue hues.
