Daisy Marquez is a self-taught Mexican makeup artist whose self-titled YouTube channel has garnered popularity. She frequently uploads cosmetics and fashion videos to her channel and also has a vlog channel with 303k subscribers called DaisyVlogs. In January 2018, an article on bustle.com highlighted her video in which she claimed and subsequently proved that the common practice of setting eye-shadow with powder may actually detract from one’s appearance rather than enhance it. ‘Story Time: I’m Undocumented’, one of her most popular videos, has been mentioned in numerous articles about immigration. Her videos frequently include her parents and her ex-boyfriend.
Achieve Stardom of Daisy
Daisy Marquez began her social media career as a cosmetics artist by sharing tips with her Snapchat followers. As her fan base grew, she transitioned to other platforms, encompassing the vast majority of social media channels. Her makeup videos on the channel extend back to May 2016, although she joined YouTube on December 12, 2009.
Surprisingly, Marquez, whose mother forbade her to wear makeup before entering high school, taught herself the fundamentals of makeup application on her own. However, the fact that she accumulated 100,000 subscribers and was officially verified on YouTube within two months of posting makeup tutorials demonstrates that she knew what she was doing.
Daisy’s Unauthorized Immigrant
On January 13, 2017, Daisy Marquez uploaded a different type of video to her channel, titled ‘Story Time: I’m Undocumented,’ in which she described her harrowing experience of crossing the Mexican border at age 10 to reunite with her mother in the United States. According to her, after being brought to the United States as an infant, she missed her native Mexico, particularly when her cousins traveled there to visit their relatives.
Therefore, she persuaded her mother to allow her to travel to Mexico with her cousins during the holidays, despite her mother’s warning that she would not be permitted to return to the United States ordinarily and would have to cross the Ro River on foot. She waited until all of her relatives had returned before joining a group of people who were crossing the border with the assistance of coyotes. She described how she was the only person set on a raft to cross the river and how one of the coyotes carried her through a dense forest and sand under a scorching sun.
One of the coyotes was captured by US forces upon entering the open field, but the other coyote took her to a nearby house, where she was able to contact her mother. She stated that she could not attend college because she was undocumented, and she urged her supporters to oppose the new administration’s plan to repeal DACA.
Disputes and Scandals
As Daisy Marquez and her partner relocated from Texas to Los Angeles in December 2017, a significant number of her followers also left her social media circle. Her devoted fans, who admired her down-to-earth lifestyle, noticed a drastic shift after she moved to California, as she became more interested in flaunting the expensive items she purchased for herself and regularly shared her meals at upscale restaurants.
Some of her admirers questioned the veracity of her ‘Story Time: I’m Undocumented’ video, believing it more plausible that she came to the United States as an infant than that she attempted to return to Mexico alone at the age of 10. Some admirers, noting that she skipped college because she did not receive DACA, observed that her age was listed as 15 on a photograph from her DACA application.
Daisy’s Personal Facts
Daisy Marquez was born in San Luis Potos, Mexico, on September 24, 1997. When she was a baby, her mother illegally immigrated to the United States with some of her acquaintances. Her mother eventually married and settled in Dallas, Texas, where she received her education. She did not attend college, however, because she was regarded as an international student and required to pay higher fees. She did not want her mother to exert tenfold the effort for her college education. Destiny Marquez, her younger sibling, is also a social media celebrity.
She was in a relationship with an artist named Alejandro (Alex) Juarez, whom she encountered at a high school house party. Several times he has appeared in her videos. Later, in December 2017, the couple moved to Los Angeles together, but they have since separated.
