When we think of those celebrities who adorned the seventies, eighties and nineties, we can not ignore their wonderful looks. A little extravagant for the modern era but without a doubt, they taught us that more is always more and that the rules are to be broken. In honor of her quirky style, we present to you eight classic beauty lessons that have been passed down from generation to generation and that even today carry more weight than any mere YouTuber. Long live the memories!

1. Thick eyebrows

Gloria Estefan.

Back in the 1980s and beyond, Cuban Gloria Estefan stole the show with her infectious music and a style that everyone wanted to imitate. Not for nothing - in addition to incredible energy, Gloria boasted some curls and a pair of eyebrows that, until today, are a perfect example of naturalness.

2. Highlights

Thalía.

We went to the extreme, but that blond lock of Thalía made her an icon. Proof that lighting here and there is enough to completely change your image. And her makeup? Chocolate lips, dark eyebrows, deep blush … Yes, it was all nineties.

3. Smoky eyes

Melissa.

The "Latin American Madonna" dazzled with her mysterious eyes. That was Melissa, the Spanish rock queen who with a hybrid style (between girly and rebellious) conquered masses and catapulted her like a fashion diva. Her smoky eye, years later, is still more current than ever.

4. Natural

María Conchita Alonso.

They can say anything about María Conchita Alonso, but that she was a sexy symbol in her time, she was. The funny thing is that the image of "little girl next door", of "innocent lolita" always carried. That was reflected in the little makeup she wore, “woke up like this” hair and shiny tones that highlighted just enough.

5. Rouge

Burnet.

Lucía Galán, the other half of the Pimpinela sibling duo, captivated with a femme fatale look from its beginnings. Fire mane, red lips, outlined eyes … A diva that exuded drama with every step. Luckily, today's women have left the fear of coppery shades, confirming that it is one of the most natural colors that can be seen if applied correctly.

6. Sensual lips

Amanda Miguel.

If you think that the "vampy lips" is a matter of now, you are more than wrong. With hair worthy of a lioness and a strong woman's attitude, Amanda Miguel also gave something to talk about with her dark lipsticks, making it clear that the important thing is confidence in yourself to wear them with pride.

7. Flirty Lashes

Iris Chacon

Twiggy has her thing, but our Iris Chacón is not far behind. Long before Selena, JLo and Kim, Iris was known for a "rearguard" that caused heart attacks. Her makeup was also key: long curly eyelashes, with lots of mascara, that practically killed with any peek. The infallible company for the rest of her look.

8. Lipsticks with volume

Miriam Cruz.

Miriam Cruz and her Chicas del Can are typical references of the Caribbean and South America. With their dance steps and popular songs, the Dominicans were recognized for miles but it was also a style that broke schemes. Her vibrant lips stay alive as the years go by, making them a symbol of summer, joy and rumba.
