Can We Guess What Year You Graduated From Your Taste in Makeup?

About This Quiz

Every decade has its style icons. The '50s had Marilyn Monroe and Grace Kelly. The '60s had Twiggy, Cher, and Jackie Kennedy. The '70s saw women dress like Farrah Fawcett and Debbie Harry. The '80s had two big contrasting style icons in Cyndi Lauper and Princess Diana. In the '90s, Gwen Stefani, Drew Barrymore, and Cameron Diaz inspired millions of women to wear their makeup like them. Today, some women look to Taylor Swift and Cara Delevigne for their fashion cues. However, many more are looking to the past to create their signature style. 

When it comes to makeup, color palettes change every decade. The '50s were the decade of cat eyes and big bold red lips. In the '60s, the focus shifted to the eyes, which were adorned with bold eyeliner and eye shadow colors. The '70s continued the trend, but someone women sought out more natural looks. The natural looks continued into the '80s and the '90s. However, many women still proudly wore their eye shows in vibrant blues, greens, and purples. The '90s also saw the popularity of lip liner skyrocket, but its popularity didn't leave the decade. In the new millennium, makeup styles run the spectrum of natural to bold. 

Throughout the years, makeup styles change, yet one thing remains true: women are always experimenting with new ways to wear their makeup.
