For Black History Month I wanted to create different makeup looks inspired by Black Women. This look I created today was inspired by the super talented Missy Elliot. If you don't know who Missy Elliot is you need to get up from up under that rock boo :P . Missy is such a talented singer, producer, songwriter, etc. The woman is genius at what she does. I am such a fan. For Missy, I wanted to recreate a makeup look from her music video, The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly). I remember the first time I seen this video, I had to be about 9 years old. And I remember Missy with this big old black suit on. It look like a trash bag. I asked my mom, WHY is this woman was wearing a freakin trash bag in a video!! lol. But looking back on the video today, it is still one the most creative and unique videos I've ever seen. Missy Elliot was truly way above her time when she did that video and a genius to say the least. But.. I hope you all enjoy the pics. I enjoyed doing the makeup. I really love this look and might have to do it again on a night out with the girls. Enjoy boo boo's.
