For makeup I would go for bright but dark eyeshadows (purple, green, etc.) Hair is just lots of ringlets.1970's Disco Makeup %26amp; Hair suggestions?
Use lots of darker shades of eye shadow...browns, dark blues, greys, etc. and use lots of black pencil eyeliner under your bottom lashes and extend it out toward the side of your eyes...almost like a Cleopatra look. Don't forget plenty of black mascara! Darker shades of lipstick with gloss on top would be good too. And, don't forget blush....probably a little heavier than you'd wear now.


As for hair....big hair was in! Not the straight styles of today....more of a permed look with lots of layers. Have Fun!
Black liner and mascara. Blue or pink shadow (really bright) all the way to the brow. Even a bit of glittery look would be right. Lips should be painted to the max in a bold color. Think hot pink or orange.


Hair should be poker straight and parted in the center, then left down. Maybe add a headband or hat.

Do a wave in your hair with the ends flipped. This was a little later than Disco, but a very big 70's look that lasted well into the 80's.
