It sometimes seems like there is nothing Rihanna cannot do. When she launched Fenty Beauty just three years ago, she truly changed the way the beauty industry viewed inclusivity. At the time, launching a brand with a foundation range of 40 shades was something we usually never heard of.
Now that the brand offers its foundation in 50 inclusive shades, many other brands have started to become more and more inclusive with their launches.
Now with clothing, lingerie, and skincare lines, Rihanna has multiple brands that convincingly deliver things none of us knew we needed. We’re going to take a dive into which makeup or skincare products from her lines are worth checking out.
Fenty Foundation
Fenty Foundation: Pro Filt’r Hydrating Longwear

Rihanna’s brand has launched a Fenty Foundation! This Hydrating Longwear Foundation is for everyone who wants that natural skin looks but with some coverage. This is a medium, buildable foundation that is long-wearing and great for anyone who has dry to normal skin and is looking for a bit of extra hydration in their foundation.
Fenty Foundation: Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear

This is the first Fenty foundation that started it all for Fenty Beauty. This is a matte formula that will give you a soft filter effect. It’s very useful if you are trying to go for that 90’s soft matte supermodel look. One thing we love the most about this formula is that it’s great for oily skin, but if you tend to be on the dry side, you can use a dewy setting spray with the foundation to give it a great skin-like finish.
What is Dew Makeup Refreshing Spray

Speaking of dewy setting sprays, Fenty Beauty has an amazing one. The mist on this spray is so fine and helps create a nice healthy glow on the face. One of the best ways to use a dewy setting spray is to spray it on your sponge or brush whenever you are applying your Fenty foundation. The best way to get that flawless, skin-like look is to mix the spray with your complexion products and pat it in, rather than just misting it over your face and letting it sit.
Pro Filt’r Instant Retouch Setting Powder

This is the setting powder to look into if you have oily skin, don’t want your Fenty foundation to move at all, or want an intense bake. There are even certain shades for various skin tones that brighten things up even more, making this the perfect powder for that stunningly bright under-eye effect.
Sun Stalk’r Instant Warmth Bronzer

This Fenty bronzer is the perfect product to warm up your face. Most of the shades have a warmer base rather than a neutral undertone, which is usually used for contouring. One great way to use this product is to use it to blend out your contour powder. It will help give dimension to the face as well as a gorgeous, airbrushed effect on the cheeks. This product can be easily built up and blended out to ensure that you will not end up with a streaky or muddy cheek. We recommend you try to match the undertone of your Fenty foundation with the available bronzer tones so it all looks cohesive and blends like a dream.
Mattemoiselle Plush Matte Lipstick

The Mattemoiselle Plush Matte Lipsticks come in a variety of shades that can help you add a bit of color to your day or have a classic nude lip. This formula is matte but feels very comfortable on the lips. The funky colors perform just as well as the nudes. The color can build up to give more of an opacity and still feel lightweight.
One swipe is usually all you need to get a nice application with this product. Gone are the days of loving a formula for nude shades but not being able to get the same results with a bright color. The best part is that these are on sale right now, and they have been for a while now at Sephora and on the Fenty site.
Stunna Lip Paint Longwear Fluid Lip Color

I’m sure we have seen these used many times on Instagram. They are the iconic lip paints from Fenty Beauty. This is one of the best matte liquid lip formulas on the market. It has a soft matte finish, so it feels very comfortable on the lips. However, it stays on all day throughout both eating and drinking. It also comes in a variety of different shades. That way you can find your perfect nude as well as a nice red or pink shade to help spice up your makeup for the day.
Invisimatte Blotting Powder

The Invisimatte Blotting Powder is perfect for anyone who is on the go and needs a little touch-up. This powder is easy to take with you, doesn’t disrupt your makeup at all, and has a nice smoothing effect on the skin. Your makeup won’t move at all. Another perk is that the powder truly has no color to it, making it perfect for a touch-up.
Fenty Skin
Fenty Skin made quite the splash when it entered the scene. Rihanna wanted to make a skincare line that had all the essentials for the everyday person. That way anyone can get great skin with just three easy steps. One of the best ways to try out the products is to order the mini bundle set. If you really have your heart set on a product, you could also get each individually. However, the three products in the set already include:
Total Cleans’

The Fenty cleanser is gentle on the skin but still effective enough to remove dirt, oils, and makeup that can build up throughout the day. This is also a great way to replace makeup wipes in your routine. Makeup wipes are bad for both your skin and the planet. First using an oil cleanser and then pairing it with a gentle cleanser to remove all of your makeup afterward is the perfect combo for removing all the makeup after a long day.
Fat Water Pore Refining Toner Serum

This toner-serum hybrid is great at targeting pores, improving the look of dark spots, and brightening and smoothing the skin. It’s also great at the fighting shine and will help control the oils on your face without stripping the skin. Combining your toner and serum can be very beneficial for anyone who wants the full skincare experience without spending all the extra time, energy, and money.
Hydra Vizor Invisible Moisturizer with Broad Spectrum SPF 30

This is a moisturizer and SPF hybrid. SPF is a very important step in your skincare routine to help prevent the visible signs of aging. Much like the Fat Water Toner Serum, this is another skincare hybrid that cuts out time and money from your skincare routine. This moisturizer also applies completely invisible on all skin tones instead of leaving the grey cast a lot of SPFs tend to have. There is also a refill for this product, which is beneficial for reducing waste.
As you can see, Rihanna has created many trends in the beauty community. Thanks to her, we all started having the conversation of whether our favorite beauty brands are inclusive for everyone. Her products are not only excellent but also truly made to make our lives so much easier. Rihanna has probably created the best beauty brand of any celeb out there. We are so excited to see what else she has in store for the future.
