Beauty for all: A guide to Fenty Beauty

Can you think of anything more iconic that Rihanna? Neither can we. But we’ve got the next best thing. 

Fenty Beauty has just launched at LOOKFANTASTIC so you can shop the hottest cosmetics, skincare and fragrances from the pop sensation and business mogul herself. Championing diversity and inclusion from the get-go with their 40 foundation shades (now 50), the ‘Fenty effect’ has revolutionised the beauty industry.  

We caught up with Priscilla Ono, Fenty Beauty’s global makeup artist, to discover Rihanna’s favourite picks and top tips for a runway-ready look.

The Story of Fenty Beauty 

“When Rihanna launched Fenty Beauty, she wanted to shake up the beauty world - and she did just that. The whole brand started because she couldn't find foundation that matched her skin tone, and she knew she wasn't the only one. Fenty Beauty is all about making everyone feel seen, no matter their shade or style. What started with 40 foundation shades has grown into a whole beauty universe, including Fenty Skin and Fenty Eau de Parfum - proving that beauty really is for all!” 

“Rihanna's all about performance, inclusivity, and making products that everyone can use. If it's not innovative or easy to use, it's not making the cut. She wants products that make you feel like your best self.” 

Master Rihanna’s Makeup Look 

From the Super Bowl to red carpets and everything in-between, we’re yet to see the day where Rihanna’s makeup doesn’t look flawless and picture-perfect. But good makeup cannot start without good skin so prepping it is everything! 

“Rihanna loves using Fenty Skin Fat Water Niacinamide Pore-Refining Toner Serum because it hydrates, smooths and gets those pores in check all in one step. The Hydra Vizor Invisible Moisturizer SPF 30 is another fave - it gives you that fresh glow while protecting your skin and serves as a beautiful canvas to start your makeup.”

Embracing and leading the ‘beauty for all’ mantra, diversity and inclusivity is at the forefront of the brand. With 50 foundation shades sitting alongside an expansive range of concealers, contours and more, discover your perfect match with our Foundation Finder tool. 

Ace Your Base 

Soft’Lit Naturally Luminous Longwear Foundation 

“Soft’Lit is that glow-from-within foundation that gives your skin life, without ever feeling heavy. It’s long wear, buildable, and packed with hydrating ingredients - basically everything you want for that effortless radiance. Whether you're keeping it natural or going full glam, Soft’Lit has got you covered.”

We’re Even Hydrating Longwear Concealer 

"Use We’re Even under the eyes to brighten, around the nose to cancel redness, and on the high points of your face to give that lifted look. Less is more when starting out and placement is everything. Always ensure to place the concealer on the exact parts that you want coverage or highlighting. This formula is creamy, hydrating, and blends like a dream.”

Match Stix Contour Skinstick

£25.00

“Match Stixs are perfect for contouring before or after concealer, they melt into the skin and layer beautifully. Apply to the hollows of the cheeks, jawline, and sides of the nose for that snatched, sculpted look.”

“My favourite tip is to warm up the product on the back of my hand first and depending on how rich I want my contour that day, I will either go in with a brush to build up the amount of contour I want or after warming up the product, go in directly with the Match Stix!”

Invisimatte Instant Setting + Blotting Powder 

If you didn’t see Rihanna’s Super Bowl performance in 2023, where have you been? (No pun intended). Mid-performance, she blotted her face using the Invisimatte Instant Setting + Blotting Powder. Here’s why:

“Invisimatte is that girl. It’s lightweight, instantly blurs, and keeps shine under control without messing up your makeup. It works on every skin tone and is totally invisible - no flashback, no cakeyness. If Rih trusts it on stage, you know it’s the real deal.”

The Finishing Touch 

We asked Priscilla if she could only choose one Fenty Beauty product to use, what would it be:

Gloss Bomb, hands down. It’s the UK’s #1 lip gloss for a reason - non-sticky, super glossy, and makes your lips look juicy every time. Whether you're going full beat or just need a little something extra, Gloss Bomb is the ultimate finishing touch.”

From a young age I’ve been immersed in the beauty industry, getting my first job at a skin clinic and staying there for almost 5 years. My love for skincare was born from the constant exposure to new French pharma skincare products, award-winning supplements and revolutionary techniques to snatch your face. My go-to look is a dewy, natural base using a tinted moisturiser, enhanced by a colourful eyeliner. The Garnier SPF50+ Face Fluid and YSL Touche Éclat Blur Primer are my holy grails.
