The late 1990s was a period of iconic beauty trends, and Kourtney Kardashian, who loves the decade, revisited one of her looks from when she was in college. To give you a hint, the color shade is currently trending, as its cool tone is perfect for the winter months.
While Kourtney's go-to color as of late is black, she has played with more vibrant hues. As it's December, the Poosh founder has styled a classic red lip for the holidays, preparing us for the season to dress and feel our best. Even if you're not one to go full-glam on Christmas (and that's okay), it's cool to look at how others celebrate with theirs. I go with lip gloss and mascara, as it's quick but leaves a festive expression.
What 90's beauty aesthetic did Kourtney revived? Let's find out!
Kourtney Kardashian teases in a turquoise eyeshadow in throwback snap
Kourtney was feeling the nostalgic vibes in her latest Instagram post. Sharing with her 221 million followers on December 15th, the mom of four went back to her college days. She had already set the beauty bar at peak levels at only eighteen years old. At the time, Kourtney was a student at Southern Methodist University in Texas.
She later transferred to the University of Arizona to complete her Major in Theater.
In the photo, Kourtney wears a frosty shade of turquoise eyeshadow with a glossy nude lip and pencil-thin eyebrows. Her hair's done in braided rows, per the style at the time. The Lemme founder was all smiles in the snap as she stood inside an elevator with her back reflecting on its metal surface.
"1997 : turquoise eyeshadow & the college dorm elevator," she writes.

Kourtney lived it up in the pre-Y2K decade before her fame days and motherhood. She was just your average Californian girl, filled with aspirations and future goals. She also had a few fashion and beauty moments that stood out.
Kourtney was taking on her big sister duties when taking care of a very young Kendall Jenner in 1999.
In 1998, Kris went to visit her firstborn at Southern Methodist University. Kourtney wore a leopard rint jacket and a soft glossy lip.
We're back to 1997 when the reality star was sitting back on a leopard seat in a black mini-dress.
In 1994, Kourtney wore her signature color of black in a tiny dress and button-up jacket. Her hair is clipped and flipped a'la Friends style, and she wears soft makeup accentuating her dark brown eyes. You could barely see her backpack as the straps gave it away.
Kourtney celebrated her late father, Robert Kardashian's birthday with a throwback to their 1993 Daddy-Daughter dance. She gives the camera a moody pout in the photo and wears a cold-shoulder dress.
Who else thought that Kourtney strongly resembled Khloé in this 1993 ski snap? She and Kim were ready to hit the slopes in their gear with their dad, a passion that they shared with him.
We love to see the Kardashians in their pre-fame!
