If you’re a fan of ‘90s music then you need to check today’s ‘90s Beauty Moment: Missy Elliott’s video for The Rain, which came out in 1997, from her first album Supa Dupa Fly. Directed by the equally iconic director Hype Williams, this video is so ahead of its time and is a must-watch if you’ve never seen it before.
In this episode I break down the hair and beauty moments, including Missy's epic finger waves, and also share some insights into the black lipgloss and liner that we see in the video, which is also very on-trend today on social media.
