Erykah Badu - 28 Days of Black Beauty

The 28 days of black beauty series is a celebration of Black History Month (February) done beauty blogger style.  I'll showcase a different woman each day and recreate one of her makeup looks while also giving some information on her life/career.  Maybe you'll learn more about some favorites or get hip to new black women that you didn't know much about :)  Enjoy! 

Erykah Badu is known as the Queen of NeoSoul, a music style that blends soul, hip-hop and R&B with "higher consciousness" type lyrics.  Her headwraps and big natural hairstyles have become a trademark look.  She has been a muse to fashion designer Tom Ford, acted in numerous movies, and been awarded for her musical albums.

I decided to recreate the cool look from this photo: 

and here's my take on it:
