Quince Makeup For A Modern Mexican Diva

Makeup artist Uyuky Hernandez tells us how to snag the look.

Makeup artist Uyuky Hernandez helps us combine modern makeup techniques to create looks for your Quince makeup that are inspired by classic Mexican actresses. According to Hernandez, you can choose the eyeshadow you like best to create a romantic and  modern look that will really bring out your features. Pink, orange, mauve, copper and gold are favorites among young Quince girls.

Highlighting powder: A shade that covers imperfections and is the perfect foundation to highlight your eyes, even if they are baggy. It’s also great for the face and nose.

Lips: Use a lipliner tone that is darker than the lipstick color. Tracing the contour of your lips is the key to having a long-lasting effect. Apply the lipstick softly and use gloss in the lower lip. Make sure to take the gloss with you to touch up during the party. Bold, daring colors like deep reds work best for this look.

Eyes: Use a highlighting powder in the upper arch below your eyebrow, then apply lilac eyeshadow following the contour of your eye. Use a pink tone in the upper eyelid; mix until colors blend. Place the faux eyelashes, apply liquid eyeliner along the edge of your eyelids (inside and out), use the curler to make sure that the faux eyelids blend with your own. Finish the Quince makeup by applying a light layer of mascara.

Face: Make sure to cleanse your skin before applying any concealer or foundation. Apply the foundation all the way to your neck and hairline and apply a powder sealant. Use a bronzer for the contour, concealer for the cheekbones and nose, then apply a light shade of blush. You can use the clear matte as a concealer under you eyes and even your cheekbones for a brighter look in your pictures.

Tips: You can use your regular makeup products, but if you want your Quince makeup to look great in pictures then we recommend using professional products. For the most part, Uyuky uses products from MAC Cosmetics and Bare Minerals.
