The litany of mesmerizing of makeup, hair, and nail looks from Cardi B's new "WAP" music video featuring Megan Thee Stallion are inspiring beauty creators everywhere — and the rapper is officially taking note. Enter Zay Beckford: a makeup artist and YouTuber whose "WAP"-inspired beauty look compelled Cardi B herself to tweet about it

When I first came across Beckford's creation — an epic mash-up of looks from the video with her own spin on it — I needed to know more about how it all came together. And luckily, she was down to share some details.

"I've always been obsessed with '90s style, especially when it comes to beauty, [and] I loved seeing Cardi B and Megan bring back that old school style in a new fun way," she tells me via email. In regards to execution, Beckford says she took care of the makeup, but enlisted the help of two talented Black artists in her city of Toronto
