100 Years of Punk, Goth, and Vamp Beauty | Allure 

No Vampira? No Elvira? No Siouxsie? No Christina Ricci as Wednesday? These are goth icons!

Forget scene and emo. You missed HUGE goth icons of the 80s. That's pretty much where goth as we know it today originated. Robert smith, siouxsie sioux. The trad goth scene was booming.

Wait... we're grouping punk and goth together now? Last time I checked, the two are very different, like super different.

The makeup artist were more “goth” than the models

I didn’t give myself tattoos with a sewing needle for y’all to do this to us

punk and alternative culture was and still is a huge movement... not a fashion trend among celebrities.

Real talk: none of this was remotely Goth or gothic, especially the 80s-2010s

I feel like none of these were goth or punk

Ah yes Rhianna, my gothic icon

why didn't they mention any 80s goth movement when that is literally the title of the video WHAT

Being a professional makeup artist who has studied and specialized in the history of different styles of makeup. I can professionally say that this video is wack.

I‘m 16 and I could’ve told you more about punk and goth fashion and history throughout the 70s-2000s

They just gave everyone black eye shadow and said “Bam, it’s goth.”

Do us ALL a favor. Don't do another one of these involving alternative beauty until you do some actual research.

“Let’s give them black lipstick and eyeshadow that’s really punk goth” But seriously I don’t think people walked around with their hair like the bride of Frankenstein

Nobody: Literally nobody: Video writers: “Let’s add glitter eye shadow! That screams punk rock!”

I've never felt so offended in my entire life, and I'm not even goth!

"Rihanna experiments with goth makeup, encouraging others to do so too" ok i'll just pretend i didnt read that

70's punk 80's trad goth 90's goth and grunge 2000's emo and scene How can someone make such a bad research?

I feel like this was made by people that dont know, or were never a part of, any of this.

are you serious?.... yall really just think black eyeshadow and a dark lip w/ some eyeliner is goth?.... I cant-

dude just because someone has dark lipstick doesn't mean they're goth TT

Y’all just gonna skip over emo like that never happened ?

1:50 she looks normal, not alt. 2:13 she looks normal, not alt. why can't you just do goth, or vamp, or punk? they are literally nothing alike and you just smoosh them together like this.

title: goth and punk video: sTeAmPuNk AnD rIhAnNa

So a "Victorian" necklace makes a look steampunk... Ya okay

what about Siouxsie Sioux? she was literally the inspiration for the whole 80s goth look

I didn't see a single goth, emo or even scene. The people who made this have a very weak understanding of these cultures after the 70's

So, if it was just “100 years of Vamp,” you’d be good. Unfortunately, there’s nothing about the origins of Goth, which is traceable back to the late 1970’s, and had a really distinct look that evolved into some other looks not covered here.

I did not argue with my mother and get called a freak to be portrayed as this

On every one they make the model wear a choker, then slap on dark eyeshadow and a berry lip and call it a day

Me: thinking that this doesn't seem right or accurate, checks comments, okay we are all in agreement.

I knew this was gonna be wack when they put punk and goth into the same category and used it interchangeably

im upset that siouxsie wasnt mentioned once. she literally is the QUEEN of goth

Did you guys even try with this video tho

this video is extremely inaccurate and disappointing.

This misses the mark by an order of magnitude. It shows an unfortunate lack of understanding of any of the alternative subcultures, influences and divergences. Disappointing and cringe inducing.

oh god this video is a disaster...

Punks, goths, and vamps watching this video and coming away with nothing: 👁👄👁

oml they included WII patriotism, they clearly don’t know what counter culture stands for

I didn't wear MCR shirts and fry my side bangs to a crisp with a straightener in 2009 for y'all to call "Steampunk" the defining goth look of the 2000s lmaooooooo

“Ok, let’s see... what eye makeup did punk/emo kids wear on the 2000’s? Oh I know! GOLDEN GLITTER!!!!!”

HOW DID YOU GUYS COMPLETELY MISS SCENE/EMO/SCREAMO/GOTH 2000S STYLE LIKE WOAH TOTAL MISS

I'm just sad to see that Rihanna was referred as someone who encouraged goth style/makeup.

SEIZURE WARNING⚠️ : There are flashing lights in the beginning of the video, if you are photosensitive please be careful. I was in for a shock when I opened the video and started feeling an aura for a few moments

Really did just skip 2000s Myspace Emo and Scene tho

When they said “grunge” on the 90s girl, I flipped

they either looked normal or like they were wearing a halloween costume. none of this was accurate and they act like "goth" is a ginormous choker and that's it

Video title: Alternative Looks Video: "here's what A-list celebrities wore"

* Slaps a bit of black makeup on their faces* Allure: ya this is accurate

did they seriously say that alternative people moved a decade of fashion cus of rihanna

I feel like this video was made by people that used to tell me "it's not halloween" or couldn't supress their urge to scream "freak" at me in the halls in high school.

This whole video was a trainwreck. Absolutely no effort was put into researching the video, they just went with over generalized stereotypes & false facts.

Guys, stop leaving hate, this is accurate. For stereotypical Disney movie “goths.”

As a goth, all I can say is: "No. Just No."

i love how these videos sound factual but it’s actually complete bs 😌

4:30 OMG IS THAT A CHOPSTICK IN HER HAIR?!!! SO PUNK😍😍🤪🤪😂😂🤤🤤🙈🙈🕸🕷

How could they forget about emo I remember many people in the 2000’s were emo not StEaMpUnK

so instead of saying 2000s emo/scene y’all went for a not even accurate steampunk look..? it doesn’t really fit?

Very interesting!! I wonder if they've ever considered putting research into the topics that they make videos on?

This is like the video aunts would reference when they see someone with black lipstick like “oh are you a goth dear? I saw that on the youtube”

They'r basing these looks off of "popular" fashion of the time but the whole point of goth and punk was that it went against the mainstream. That 1970's style was only vaguely punk. Not sure why they COMPLETELY skipped the 80's goth movement and the 50's beatnik style (the spiritual predecessor to punk and goth). And they picked steam punk for the 2000's? No scene or emo fashion? Are you kidding me? The biggest resurgence of punk in decades, the popularization of guy-liner and brightly colored hair before it was socially acceptable and they just skip it? And of course, Rhiannon invented the dark lipstick trend. Definitely wasn't a thing in the 90's and 80's.

5:46 “Rihanna experiments with Goth makeup, encouraging others to do the same.” Lol….. what. Yes thank you Rihanna for single-handedly reviving goth / punk. I’m sure you and your pop music were the only reason goth and punk were brought back 😒

Honestly...who researched this?

woah that was bad make up was poorly done no fitting outfits/accessoires most of descriptions were just hilarious not even the music fits why not taking real goths/punks doing their own look instead of taking random mainstream people and doing such poorly done looks big minus is not mentioning any real icons like siouxie or robert smith not showing trad goth is pretty sad too where did you do research for looks? pinterest?

omg the pastel goth- I’m *w h e e z i n g*

No batcave or Elvira for the 80s???

"Punks rejected the hippie movement" - shows the peace sign at the end -

they completely missed out what started most of the goth subculture, trad goths. and it's the same with emo and scene, they missed them out aswell.

More like 100 years of smokey eyes and dark-ish lipstick

I'm not even part of this culture and even I know that this was all wrong. The timelines are incorrect and how they interact is also incorrect.

0:55 emo Marge Simpson.

I expected Vampira for the 50's and Siouxsie for the 80's...

i feel like y’all should really retry this cause this ain’t it

5:00 why didnt they make her into an emo 😒

Are we really surprised they skipped the whole emo scene days of the 2000’s? Their ‘100 years of whatever beauty’ ALWAYS presents half assed looks that are only partially accurate

They skipped 1996's The Craft and the impact it had on the goth scene. Missed the mark spectacularly.

The 70’s onward were my eras. And I can truly say that the hair and makeup featured here is totally wrong. You get a point for effort but - on everything else. And when you do another makeup and hair compilation please do your research and ask the people who actually lived through those years and took their makeup and hair seriously (like me)

WOAH, no scene makeup, attributing dark lips to Rhianna alone, and making a random statement about non-binary vamps that doesn’t seem particularly relevant to the video itself. Yikes.

I’m a freelance writer who covers these subgenres *and* used to be a makeup artist. Allure: if you’re listening, let me come help you fix this.

4:50 not the chopsticks 😔

The makeup artists were more accurate then the actual models I exited the video when they mentioned Rhianna I was just done

Putting Mortician Addams and Rihanna in the same video as “gothic icons” is disrespectful. Also I know this is inspired by the characters but Morticia would never ever wear pastel eyeshadow!

5:16 The only thing steampunk about this is the neck piece, and that's way more just Victorian.

One of the most historically and aesthetically inaccurate videos I have ever seen. You can tell they barely researched the subjects mentioned in this video.

OK, besides the obvious lack of research and just, laziness of the whole video, can we just talk about the eyeliner DISASTER of the 1950s??? Like???

i was so excited for 2000s just to see that it wasnt even what i expected. i was so excited for the thick eyeliner, the racoon-looking bangs covering your eye, etc :(

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe the eyeliner you referred to as “henna” is actually “kajal” for the Middle Eastern Vamp look. I might be wrong though!

its weird to think that 2020 will soon be a category.

5:08 BRO THAT AINT EVEN LOOK LIKE GOTH

Emo is 2000s, Grunge is 90s, Punk and Hair Metal are 70s - 80s

Girl this makeup is so badly blended and poorly applied I’m so mad about it

This video: *is supposed to be goth* Also this video: BrIdE oF fRaNkEnStEiN

I really didn't like how they did the makeup for the 90's and 2000's not really goth at all

I stopped watching the moment they showed that extremely inaccurate 1920s look (long fuzzy/modern hair? That lipstick? Why?)

Did they really think they could put a monster high character in this without anyone noticing? 2:43

I was expecting the siouxsie eyes for the 80's Nope Not even a hint of 80's goth

THEY CALLED MORTICIA ADDAMS VAMP I CANT EVEN

3:40 they single *puts hair behind ear*

Are you serious, I mean clearly no one on this team has ever been a part of any of these subcultures, but how'd they miss the mark so badly?!
