Blue eye shadow paired with neon lip gloss? Such combinations were in style during the disco dance years of the 1980s. This colourful trend is back in fashion again. So if you want to stand out at your next party, be sure to opt for bold make-up in the spirit of a bygone era!

The trend for the next decade is now back and the 80s are back in style, as we can already see in the make-up industry. A bold lipstick in juicy colors combined with very colourful eye shadow is a combination that is sure to make you an eye-catcher.
