Aaliyah " We Need A Resolution "



Another inspired look today & this one is to coincide with the 9th Anniversary of Aaliyah's tragic passing. I took this look from the " We Need A Resolution " video. One of my favourite videos from her as you could tell she was really coming into her own with this album. I can still remember the day it happened and seeing it on MTV & how I cried like a baby. Got to love her R.I.P.




It's a very simple & easy look. I didn't have a grey/silver eyeliner pencil -(seeing as I threw it away, feeling it had no use a few months back) so I just used black eyeliner for the waterline & extended the blue right underneath instead of just having it in the corners.


Times Like This OCC Lip Tar Should Come Into Good Use - I need some in my life.






I look so frightened lol
