Did Bitches Use Makeup In 1990s

Rihanna has always been dazzler'southward resident disrupter. But with the groundbreaking success of her Fenty makeup line, Faddy'due south June cover daughter is shattering boundaries like never before—and having more fun than anyone else while doing it.

With a career that's expanding well across her Grammy-winning, critically acclaimed music—call up inclusive Internet-breaking beauty launches, a forthcoming body-positive Savage x Fenty lingerie line, and a role in Ocean'southward viii adjacent month—the pop icon is finally pulling back the curtains on her Bad Gal glow. "I desire to requite you guys a vibe," she says in her lilting Barbadian accent, clad in a Savage x Fenty pink silk robe and lace-trim bra while on vacation in Los Cabos, United mexican states. "And my vibe for summer is more is more than."

For Rihanna, unfiltered is a style of life—and that carries over to her deft use of unexpected pigments or holographic highlighters. "I learned how to contour when I gained weight, believe it or not," she proclaims as she buffs Fenty's Pro Filt'r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation over her entire face up and sculpts her cheeks, nose, and jawline with ane of the Lucifer Stix Matte Skinsticks in Mocha. "That's when information technology comes in reeeeal handy, believe information technology or not. Them fat days [when] cheeks looking like infant cheeks." She continues to dot on camouflage where necessary, warming upwards a fleshy shade on the back of her scarlet-taloned hand before borer information technology under the eyes. "Everybody knows concealer is made for hiding bags, and dark circles, and hangovers, and bad decisions," she purrs.

After a veil of matte setting powder ("When you get greasy on the wing, honey, it is no joke!"), she brushes bronzer across her face up for a hint of warmth, and so concentrates the bawdy pigment along the eye sockets to heighten her gaze. "I have been watching women exercise makeup since my mom and [so] I started working in an industry where [information technology] was going to be a part of my every day basically, so I picked upwards a lot of tips," she explains, adding that even when she's getting her makeup washed, there are certain facial features she'll e'er do herself. "I'm super, super caught up almost my brows and my nose profile."

On to bringing the total-blown eye drama, she swirls a deep pink shadow that covers all bases—"Summer, sunset, love, drama, bitches!" she says with an infectious laugh—into the lids. Only things don't stop there. After quick dashes of gold glitter liner on the inner corners of the optics for "a little zest!" she coats her lips in a luminous gloss. But no self-respecting Bad Gal stops at the cervix. Growing upwardly in the Caribbean area, "I'd make body glitter makeup with oil, eyeshadows that I crushed upwards, and pigments," she says, pulling out the Fenty equivalent—her Body Lava Luminizer, which she spreads, sensually, all over her décolleté and shoulders using a kabuki brush, to light up her glossy limbs.

Now that she's ready, one question remains: Where is she off to tonight? "We going to the clurrrrrb!" she says in full vacation mode. And with a twirl, a hair flip, and a kiss goodbye for skilful mensurate, the icon is out—looking savage.
