Classic 90s make up. Heather Shimmer et al.

[MichelleScarn]

Mtv on in background, sclub7 'never had a dream come true' is on and have such nostalgia for the sparkly, shimmery make up of the late 90s, Rimmel's Heather Shimmer, Fudge Brownie and glitter gel, butterfly clips, hair mascara and all that!

Have you got your skirt/trouser combo on? Can smell the Fuzzy Peach perfume from here @MichelleScarn

Oh my goodness how I loved coffee shimmer! And Dewberry lipbalm from Body Shop.

Buffalo trainers and sparkly dress here!

I was a Black Cherry gal

I liked rose in gold lipstick, dewberry too 🥰

Impulse o2, Nina Ricci Les Bells, and spray or roll on glitter.. why on earth!

White Musk perfume from Body Shop, silver nail varnish from Boots Seventeen, Kickers wedges, 501 Levi's just to name a few - I miss it all!

I still use heather shimmer sometimes - it really suits me.... Well I hope it does 🤔

Amethyst shimmer for me. Still have it.

Amethyst Shimmer was brilliant! Also loved body shop Pink Ginger lipstick. White Musk, Ananya, Coconut, Dewberries all the delights of the Body Shop perfume bar. Spectacular Nail varnish 99p in Dancing Queen (exactly the same shade as dairy milk foil) or Brighton Rock (same colour as Brighton Rock), or Miss Selfridge bringing out different tiny nail varnishes almost every week. I miss thin eyebrows as standard waxing protocol so much. I swear we were all slimmer then because we spent our weekends marching up and down busy high streets.

Now days it’s dull Online shopping, make up in 500 shades of beige, Bert and Ernie drawn on eyebrows and enough contouring to make you look like a member of the Cats cast.

Sun moon stars perfume was amazing

Twilight Teaser was my lippy of choice back then. With pink and blue eyeshadow. Fabulous times.

I had amethyst shimmer too
Still feel nostalgic for Impulse O2!

Don't forget heather shimmer's less lilac sibling coffee shimmer. So? Body spray, short skirts with a men's shirt (Ben Sherman) and teenage girls wearing Jean Paul gaultier aftershave or ck one!

Ah 90's.
But damn you op, now I can't get that song out of my head!

Never had a dream come true
'Till the day that I found you
Even though I'll pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be MY BABY!!!

Heather shimmer, Wild Musk and So...? perfume, Sugar, Bliss and Mizz magazines (while sneakily reading More and Company in Tesco while my Mum was shopping. Barry M Dazzle Dust, stick on jewelled bindis and those Shaders/Toners you could shampoo into your hair. Trousers under dresses, butterfly clips and foam Skechers sandals.

I saw big, chunky loafers in a shop the other day. It was shocking... 😂

How has nobody mentioned Exclamation! perfume. It was the best.

I always remember those shitty bath pearls that did naff all too.

Max Factors Pan stick was a local hero too.

Zig zag partings and those zig zag headbands that you wrapped around hour head and used the teeth to push your hair flat at the front.

Charlie Red perfume. God, I felt SO hot wearing that 🤣

Also Maybelline Dream Matt Mousse foundation….cakey as f*ck!

I still remember the jingle for Exclamation! 'Make a statement...without saying a word'

Thinking about the competitive nature of various perfumes & body sprays, we must have smelt worse than a Lush shop.

Oh yes- sneakily reading position of the week in More!

Big devotee of amethyst shimmer, no7 eye shadow palettes, exclamation ( which you can still buy) fuzzy peach and Tribe!

Oh yes to all of this! I reluctantly decided that Sugar Plum rimmel suited me better than Heather Shimmer. And it was Kiwi fruit body shop.lip balm for us.
All the cool kids at school had Head bags (early 90s).

Will join you with my severe zig-zag parting, and my crappy hair mascara.

Heather Shimmer was 80s too.
