Ep. 170: '90s Beauty Moments - Sharon Stone as Ginger McKenna in 1995 movie Casino

Today’s ‘90s Beauty Moment is all about Sharon Stone’s magnificent portrayal of Ginger McKenna in Martin Scorsese’s 1995 film Casino.

In this episode I break down the retro looks we see in this film that’s based in the ‘80s, from the hair and makeup pros to my favourite beauty moments from the film. Apparently Sharon Stone was dead set on playing this character and I really think that comes through in the movie – it’s an absolute classic.

Ep. 172: '90s Beauty Moments - Foxy Brown, Christian Dior poster girl and first lady of hip-hop

Today’s ‘90s Beauty Moment is all about Brooklyn-born Foxy Brown, AKA Inga Marchand, one of the first ladies of hip-hop. She was first seen on our screens in a video for LL Cool J’s I Shot Ya remix video in 1995 and from then on her style and lyricism evolved.

In this episode I break down why Foxy was and is so important to not just hip hop, but also to dark-skinned women and girls around the world – I feel she helped them feel seen, appreciated and confident.
