In a sumptuous photo for the pop star's upcoming, as-yet-untitled album, Christina Aguilera channels a songstress from the past. Wearing a large white flower over one ear, her hair pulled back in a sleek style, the starlet looked more than a little like Billie Holiday.
The stunning, black-and-white photo goes along with the meaningful theme of the album. The star was quoted in Just Jared about the feel for the new tunes, which will be "a very heartfelt, deep-rooted, and introspective record."
In addition to her platinum blonde hair, the starlet wore a dramatic, elegant makeup look. Her eyebrows were tinted a deeper shade than her hair, angled and drawn in thickly. The glamour of her look brings to mind many Hollywood stars of the past, including Greta Garbo, Rita Hayworth, and Marilyn Monroe.
The eye makeup used on Aguilera was rich and lovely. A highlighting shade was used in the middle of her upper lids, then shaded with a deeper hue on the outer edges, spreading across the eyelid crease. Her lashes were super thick, with lustrous black mascara. Her upper lashes were thickened by false lashes.

Because she is Christina Aguilera, after all, the pop star didn't stop there with the striking makeup. She layered her lips in a deep scarlet, creamy lipstick. On her nails, she used another dark red hue to go with her lips.
