Selena Quintanilla remains an inspiration for everyone who has been touched by her music, but the singer also had great style, with her iconic outfits and natural beauty. MAC cosmetics even released a makeup line inspired by the star, which sold out in hours.
Her makeup style was deceivingly simple, as it complemented perfectly all of her features: A neutral eyeshadow look to show off the fabulous cat eye black liner, strong brows and keeping blush and bronzer to a minimum to feature her signature red lip, the star of the whole look.
The Queen of Tex-Mex thought us the power of a beautiful bold red lip and has inspired many beauty bloggers to recreate looks inspired by Selena Quintanilla’s makeup, which was just like her: bold and beautiful.
