Carolyn Bessette Love Story Makeup Look

Carolyn Bessette Love Story Makeup Look

Carolyn Bessette Kennedy's love story with JFK Jr. came with the most iconic 90s eye makeup. Perfectly curled lashes hitting 90 degrees at roots. The thinnest black line tracing upper lashes only. No shadow, no drama. Just an effortless definition.

That Carolyn Bessette makeup look defined their romance because it was confident without trying. Minimal products, maximum impact. You get her polished gaze for modern dates without heavy formulas or irritation. The quiet luxury blueprint lives on.

What Her Love Story Eye Look Is

Carolyn's signature was extreme lash curl meeting barely-visible liner. Lashes lifted dramatically creating wide-awake doe eyes. Single black line hugged upper lash line without wing or waterline. Brows groomed naturally.

The effect amplified her bone structure perfectly. Her gaze read romantic yet direct during their Hamptons weekends. 90s minimalist makeup relied on curl over volume. Clean lines made natural beauty shine through every paparazzi shot.
