00:06My first memory of SZA is one of my really good friends, Sydney, trying to convince me to actually
00:14listen to SZA. She just makes music for girls like me. Like, you're cool, but you're not like
00:19girly, but you're not like full-on tomboy. You're just like carefree black girl vibes. When she was
00:24performing Z in SoHo somewhere, and I was like a freshman in college, and the same
00:30friend, Sydney, was like, we have to go. And I'm like, I can't go, I have class. She was like,
00:35fine, I'm going.
00:36So she went, and me and my other friend went to Dover Street Market. So we were coming from Streetwear,
00:41and the elevator stops at 2, and the elevator opens, and it's SZA. And I'm just like, that was it.
00:49That's all. I didn't say anything. I blew it. But if I could meet her again, I'd think of something.
00:56I'd think of something. I'd say something other than silence.
01:01This first look is from 2014 when SZA is performing at the Pitchfork Music Festival.
01:09For her makeup, her base is minimal, and her lids have a medium brown eyeshadow, and the inner corners
01:16are highlighted with a shimmery white and gold eyeshadow.
01:24SZA's hair is curled and teased out. It's pulled back into two pigtails with gray scrunchies.
01:33Her eyes are finished off with bold, fluttery eyelashes.
01:38She's wearing a nude brown lipstick. Freckles are drawn across her nose and cheeks.
01:49Oh, this is like if SZA was a Bratz doll. The freckles, of course, are super SZA, but just like,
01:57this hair is a moment. I'm living for this. This is great. Just walking into work, like,
02:03hey, R29s. It's poppin'. It's me. You know, your dog. Come to life. Here to shine. Bring the SZA vibes.
02:11It's great.
02:15The second look is from the 2016 Pemberton Music Festival.
02:24This is a very simple look. SZA's base is lightly contoured. For her eyes, she has a white eyeshadow winged
02:30out,
02:30and she's wearing a fluffy set of eyelashes.
02:50For her hair, it is an orange-red, and it's curled and teased out.
02:54She is also wearing a nude lip in this look.
03:09Oh, my God. Who knew I could be, like, red? The red hair is just amazing. Like, amazing.
03:18It's, like, 80s vibes, but we're, like, shouting out SZA. I feel like it's very accurate.
03:30This last look is from the 2018 Met Gala. The theme was Heavenly Bodies, Fashion, and the Catholic Imagination.
03:38SZA looks very regal and dreamy. Brown eyeshadow is dusted into her crease with a silver glitter on her lids.
03:45She has a winged liner and a full set of lashes.
03:48There is bright gold eyeshadow on her inner corners, and for her base, she has a warm blush and contour.
03:59Her hair is curled and draped around her shoulders. She has soft bangs and two braids that frame her face.
04:24There are two gold tears dripping down her cheek.
04:32To top off this look, SZA is wearing a halo crown.
04:41Oh, my gosh. This is amazing. Look at this crown.
04:48Get into this eye makeup, though, and the tears. It's so perfect.
04:54Just, like, you know, your not-so-average black Madonna.
04:57I came to slay. It doesn't get any more real than this. The dress is perfect.
05:02The hair, the makeup. This is a look. She's put together. She's ready to go.
05:06This look definitely has my heart. Like, yeah, the pigtails, unforgettable, but this is just, like, you can't top this.
05:12It doesn't get any better. It's, like, this is, like, when someone's, like, I care. No, I don't. I'm sorry.
