She has left no stone unturned to surprise and charm the audience with her versatile and vivacious on-screen presence. She is a force to reckon with and makes the world of entertainment and glamour look like a cakewalk. That’s Huma Qureshi for you, who is celebrating her 35th birthday today. The actress also took to Instagram to share the first look of her upcoming Netflix series, Monica, O My Darling. Seeing her clad in an all-black garb, crimson red lips and soft curls, we fell in love with Qureshi all over again.
We are rounding up five times when Huma Qureshi’s dreamy makeup looks inspired us to pick up our makeup brushes, lipsticks, highlighters and the entire makeup stash and channel our inner diva.
- 01. Glitter on the eyes
- 02. Unapologetic red lips
- 03. Wing it in blue
- 04. Go easy in desi
- 05. Smokin’ pink
01. Glitter on the eyes
When in doubt, go with glitter (lots of glitters)! We love how Huma first layered her eyelids with a deep blue smoky tint and topped it up with vibrant foiled pigment for a dramatic finish.
02. Unapologetic red lips
The one thing you should never underestimate is the power of red lipstick. Take cues from Huma Qureshi, who started with light-toned creamy copper eyes, put on some mascara and lastly, defined her lips with a sizzling red shade.

03. Wing it in blue
Huma is topping the trend charts with her striking blue eyes, and we’re here for it! The actress started by painting her eyelids with a soft metallic brown shadow. Next, she ditched the typical black eyeliner to draw a beautiful, thick blue wing all the way to the outer corner of her eyes and slid it back towards her upper portion of lids. Simply stunning!

04. Go easy in desi
The actress pulls off her Indian ethnic looks as effortlessly as her power looks. Keeping things attractive yet subtle in this glorious desi outfit, Huma went sober on the eyes, choosing a classic black eyeliner with a thin, faded wing. She primed her eyes and dabbed some nude eyeshadow and a soft pink shade on the lips.

05. Smokin’ pink
We are totally crushing over this on-fleek makeup look. While Huma’s eyes are decked with a crisp mascara finish, her lower lash line flaunts a candy pink eyeliner and a matte pink lipstick that makes for a quirky day to night look.
