British model Twiggy is still considered a style icon and source of inspiration for her bold and glamorous makeup looks from the height of her fame in the 1960s.

The early <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/sharon-tate-60s-style" target="_blank">1960s</a> makeup look was all about elegant eyes, pale pink hues, and tons of powder, but by the mid-&lsquo;60s, this style evolved into the more dramatic eye makeup&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/beauty-trends-2010s-makeup-hair" target="_blank">look</a> and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/full-eyelashes-trend-2021-beauty" target="_blank">thick lashes</a> typified by the likes of British <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/isa-stoppi-model-sixties-dies" target="_blank">model</a> Twiggy during the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/mod-makeup-trend-ariana-grande-positions" target="_blank">Mod</a> era of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/black-designers-fashion-history-virgil-abloh-telfar-clemens" target="_blank">fashion</a>. Simultaneously childlike and androgynous, the doe-<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/dark-under-eye-circles-tiktok-trend" target="_blank">eyed</a> model is more than just a magazine poster girl, she is a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/bag-trends-2021-runway-instagram" target="_blank">trendsetter</a>, a daring dresser, and a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/janis-joplin-style-moments-songs-60s" target="_blank">style</a> icon&nbsp;that women of all ages continue to look up to for outfit&nbsp;inspiration and bold <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/celebrity-makeup-artists-of-color-instagram-pat-mcgrath-sir-john" target="_blank">makeup</a> looks. In many of the pictures of the model from the decade, she wears the same graphic eye makeup with a black line in her crease, pale eyeshadow, subtle <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/how-to-create-perfect-cat-eye-liner-makeup-vincent-oquendo" target="_blank">cat-eye liner</a>, and layers of mascara on her top and bottom lashes. While Twiggy, now age 71, may have grown out of the Mod makeup of her past, a new generation of stars including <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/everything-you-need-to-know-about-ariana-grande-engagement-ring" target="_blank">Ariana Grande</a> and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/the-queens-gambit-prada-costumes-anya-taylor-joy" target="_blank">Anya Taylor-Joy in&nbsp;The Queen&#39;s Gambit</a>&nbsp;are keeping the beauty of the era alive with Twiggy-inspired cut creases.

For a throwback to &lsquo;60s <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/gen-z-y2k-millennial-90s-fashion-nostalgia" target="_blank">nostalgia</a>, L&rsquo;OFFICIEL rounds up a collection of&nbsp;Twiggy&rsquo;s best makeup looks that made her one of the most&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/style-brigitte-bardot-marily-monroe-french-fashion" target="_blank">iconic</a>&nbsp;and recognized faces of all time.
