2000s fashion is making a big comeback this year. Many Y2K makeup trends were influenced by the style of the 90s. However, this new millennium brought brighter, flashier, and sexier styles to our closets.
If you grew up with Y2K fashion and makeup trends, then you’ll be delighted to see these trends again. We know that we’ve saved a few favorite pieces in hopes that the Gossip Girl look would resurface in the future!
2000s Fashion and Y2K Makeup Trends to Wear Today
Many fashion designers are releasing new styles that mix modern elements with the 2000s style, and we’ve listed just a few in this post. So, without further ado, here are a few iconic trends from the 2000s that you’ll likely see this year!
As 2000s fashion makes a comeback, bold and unconventional makeup looks are also taking center stage. Haus Labs, a makeup brand founded by Lady Gaga, offers a wide range of products that allow individuals to express their creativity and embrace their unique styles. From glittery eyeshadows to bold lipsticks, It has everything you need to achieve iconic looks and make a statement with your makeup.
Colorful Eyeshadow
The clothes you wear don’t need to be the only thing you bring back from Y2K. Using quality beauty and skincare products can help revitalize your skin and help you find that glow that brings out the best in you. WinkyLux has tons to offer from skincare treatments to lip gloss and balms to even eyeliners, mascaras, and primers.
If you really want to get that glow in your skin, definitely check out Winky Lux and its amazing products. Winky Lux also carries some super fun eyeshadow palettes that can help pull together an early 2000s look.
Brightly-colored eyeshadow was one of the biggest makeup trends of the decade. From pastel pinks to bold blue eyeshadow, Y2K makeup eyeshadow palettes will add a pop of vibrant color to any outfit.
In love with shimmer? This color-changing lip gloss can also accentuate your y2k look!
Thin Eyebrows
Another iconic look from the 2000s is the thin eyebrow. Some people wanted this look so bad, they shaved off their brows and used brow pencils to create the perfect look for them! Now, you don’t have to go to that extreme (unless you want to). You can just shape your current brows, and use any of these brow pencils from Missha to fill them in!

Icy Pink Lip Gloss
Do you remember those icy pink lips everyone had back in the day? They’d take out the tube from their purse and swipe the gloss over their lips, all in just a few seconds. Well, you can recreate this look now with Winky Lux’s Glossy Boss lip gloss from Target!

Patchwork Denim
This eye-catching fashion trend was all over the red carpet in the early 2000s. Just take a look at Justin and Britney or Jay-Z and Beyonce! Patchwork dresses, jackets, and jeans are coming back in full force thanks to their unique, playful look.
If you like the denim-on-denim look, then you’ll love these patchwork flares from Macy’s.
Don’t forget, you can always make your own patchwork denim too! Simply cut and sew old pieces of denim into a jacket or dress. You’ll have a unique piece of clothing that you won’t find anywhere else!
Want to make it more unique? Try putting dresses over jeans or wear tube tops to channel that true year 2000 or early 00s vibe!
Hair Clips
You can’t bring up Y2K beauty and fashion and makeup without talking about hair clips. These simple, colorful clips were worn by fashionistas of all ages in the 2000s. And thankfully, they’re making a huge comeback this year!
Butterfly clips come in a range of colors. We love this colorblock set from Anthropologie.
Glitter Nail Polish
Sparkly nail polish is one of the trends we are excited to see making a comeback this year. They were an early 2000s beauty trend, too! While most 2000s polishes were metallic (golds, silvers, platinum), the colored polish was also quite popular. This glamorous polish from Nordstrom is one of our favorite glittery styles!

Midriff-Baring Outfits
Y2K style wasn’t just fashion-forward, it was also daring and sexy. Midriff-baring outfits were everywhere! Women could feel confident showing off their curves by rocking low-rise jeans and crop tops wherever they went. If you want to feel like you jumped right out of the 2000s, wear cropped tank tops!
This trend has resurfaced over the last few years. Models, celebrities, and influencers are no strangers to showing skin. You can also copy their style by investing in a few key midriff-exposing pieces.
For example, cropped sweatshirts from Banana Republic show a bit of belly while still keeping your upper body warm and cozy.
Strappy Sandals
Perfect for a girl’s brunch or date night, the strappy sandal can be worn with practically any outfit. The criss-cross straps and thin frame elongate the leg without adding bulk or weight. It’s one of those must-have Y2K fashion and makeup accessories that everyone needs to have in their closet!
For everyday wear, we recommend a strappy sandal with a kitten heel. However, a high-heel strappy sandal from DSW can also elevate an outfit for those needing a bit more height. This sexy show looks great with a flowy summer dress, although 2000s ladies also wore them with jeans or pants.
