4. Mismatched lip liner

We’re not anti-lip liner, but in the 1970s, it was trendy to wear a bold lip liner that didn’t match lipstick. Think dark liner with light lip shades for a startling and harsh contrast with an unfinished effect. While the goal was to make the lips look fuller, this look really needed some better blending techniques.

5. Shag haircuts

Rock stars and normal people alike loved the shag haircut, which was all about messy-chic, short layers with a bedhead style. But unless it was constantly styled and coiffed with products, it didn’t look so great on everyone, and looked messier than chic.

6. Glitter everywhere

The 1970s were all about disco, and there was no disco without glitter. Glitter cover hairdos, makeup, and clothes. It was worn on lips, lids, and cheeks, but had a tendency to get stuck on everything. Rather than the glam fairy effect, it looked like a not-so-cute glitter explosion.
