It may be 2022, but in the beauty world, cues pulled from 2002 continue to find favor. Should you have any doubts that Y2K-era trends are still worthy of note, we recommend making your way to Hung Vanngo s Instagram: the makeup artist shared a snap of Selena Gomez this morning featuring a beauty look that exuded vibes of decades past.
Framed by Gomez s sleek brunette bob—inward-styled ends and subtle mahogany highlights aiding in the throwback effect—a graphic cat-eye became a bit less expected when smudged to achieve a slightly blurred finish. Next, an overlined lip painted in a brickish brown came with a generous swipe of gloss, offering a perfect juxtaposition to Gomez s matte complexion.
Precise power brows, washes of blush and bronzer, and a hefty dose of attitude proved that, when executed correctly, some details span time and place. Though it looks as if the next trendscape may find us revisiting scene-y Tumblr times, the early-aughts revival has truly transmuted modern beauty for the better.
