Nothing compares to iconic beauty looks that have endured over time when it comes to timeless beauty. These timeless makeup styles, which range from bold up-to-date glam to vintage Hollywood charm, continue to influence editorials, red carpet appearances, and everyday glam. At PAC, we are committed to honoring these legendary beauty moments by making them wearable and accessible to anyone. Without further ado, let's look at the most famous makeup looks that continue to shape fashion today, along with how PAC makes it simple to recreate them.
Marilyn Monroe’s Red Lip & Winged Liner Combo
This vintage glam makeup look is the very definition of classic. Monroe’s softly defined eyes, fluttery lashes, and that perfect bold red lip created a standard for bombshell beauty. A favorite among Hollywood beauty icons, her makeup style remains the go-to for any timeless occasion.
PAC Tip: Use our Intimatte Lipstick in Red Craze and pair it with AccuPro Eye Liner for that perfectly lifted flick.
Audrey Hepburn’s Soft Eyes and Bold Brows
Audrey's celebrity signature makeup was all about the eyes—fluttery lashes, softly smudged shadows, and thick, well-groomed brows. She epitomized elegance with a minimalist approach that feels just as relevant today.
PAC Tip: Use PAC Eyebrow Definer and any soft brown shadow palette to recreate this refined charm.
Twiggy’s Mod Eye Makeup
The swinging '60s brought graphic lashes and exaggerated creases, courtesy of British model Twiggy. This classic makeup through decades look remains a cult favorite among editorial artists and retro lovers alike.
PAC Tip: Use the Spotlight Gel Liner in White on your waterline and accentuate lashes with our Volume Blast Mascara to channel that playful mod energy.
Cher’s Studio 54 Glam
No list of iconic beauty looks is complete without the disco queen herself. Cher's shimmering eyeshadows, sculpted cheeks, and glossy lips defined legendary beauty moments of the '70s. It's red carpet makeup inspiration that never loses its shine.
PAC Tip: Layer cream and powder highlighter for a lit-from-within glow, then finish with a glossy lip color for that disco-ready effect.
Rihanna’s Bold & Fearless Glam
From bold metallic lids to monochrome looks, Rihanna is a modern muse redefining celebrity signature makeup. Her looks are the perfect example of PAC recreating iconic looks in a way that’s experimental yet wearable.
PAC Tip: Don’t shy away from color—our vivid shadow palettes let you play with pigment like a pro.
These timeless makeup styles continue to inspire generations, whether you're trying to recreate Audrey's sophistication, Marilyn's glitz, or Rihanna's bold flair. PAC recreates iconic looks with the correct tools and a little imagination, allowing you to create your own red carpet makeup inspiration every day.
