If you’re a Rihanna fan, you may already know (and love!) Fenty Beauty. Only five years ago, Rihanna built this grand fashion and beauty brand from zero, starting with her line of internet-breaking foundations, which consisted of more shades than any other makeup brand on the market at the time. (Currently, Fenty has a range of over 50 shades!)

The rapidly growing brand continues to break barriers with sustainably-focused skincare, as well as expanding to other essential makeup products, ranging from colorful eyeliners to create bold makeup looks to easy, natural makeup that can become a part of your daily beauty routine. Let’s just say, Rihanna has got you covered.

So what’s the best from Fenty? It’s hard to pick amongst all of the great products, but creating a simple, everyday makeup look might just be top of mind. Anyone can appreciate an easy makeup application that can save you time, highlight your natural features, brighten up your face, and more importantly, make you feel good. My answer to this question: a natural makeup look and routine!

If you can’t tell already, I am a Rihanna-stan. Not only is she beautiful, talented, and confident, but I feel that her products also send the same message, allowing anyone, of any gender, to feel the same way. We encourage you to try out any (or all) of the products below!

First, What Is A Natural Makeup Look?

A natural makeup look, also known as a “no-makeup-makeup look” or even “second skin,” is a minimal makeup routine that defines and highlights your natural beauty by smoothing out your skin tone, making your eyes look brighter and your favorite features pop! We are always looking for ways to uplift and celebrate our natural beauty, so why not let some makeup products help us out?  After all, you may just find a new everyday look.  

Another reason why we love a natural makeup look? Once you've nailed down your routine, it always looks good–fitting for work, holidays, date nights, or whatever day of the week it is.

What Are The Makeup Essentials For A Natural Makeup Look?

Depending on which part of your face that you may want to accentuate, a “natural” makeup look can use many different products. However, the nine beauty and makeup essentials for this look are:

  • SPF: Even if you’re not putting on a full face of makeup, always apply SPF to protect your skin before any makeup application! 

  • Concealer: A little bit of concealer goes a long way and is generally used to color-correct any skin pigmentation and cover up blemishes, such as underneath the eyes or on acne scars. 

  • Foundation: Foundations come in three forms–liquid, powder, or cream–to create a smooth, bright, and even skin tone across your entire face. 

  • Eye Shadow: For a natural makeup look, you will need minimal eye shadow. However, sticking to nude colors or even a hint of peach can add a colorful tint to your eyes.

  • Mascara: Mascara can work magic by lifting your lashes and making your eyes look bigger and brighter! Choose from volumizing, lengthening, or even strengthening mascaras if you already have full lashes. 

  • Eyeliner: Eyeliner accentuates your eyes with a simple outline. For a less intense effect, pick a color that isn’t too harsh–like soft brown or chocolate brown–to smoothly line your eyelid.

  • Lip Color: Choose from lipstick, gloss, or tinted lip balm to make your lips pop and pull your whole natural makeup look together. 

  • Eyebrow Pencil: Your eyebrows help to shape your face and are essential to completing a natural look. Whether it's a pencil, gel, or cream, an eyebrow-shaping tool will help you easily fill your eyebrows to make them look fuller and more defined.

  • Blush: Similar to foundation, blush comes in three forms: liquid, powder, and cream, adding pigment to your cheeks for a healthy, natural-looking glow.

(You probably have a lot of these already, but consider upgrading it to Queen RiRi’s level!)

Extras To Consider:

If you want to add one final touch, here are some extra (read: non-essential) makeup products that can elevate the natural makeup look. 

  • Primer: While not exactly necessary, primers can make your whole makeup look appear seamless, while also staying in place and lasting longer throughout the day.

  • Highlighter: I love a great highlighter! It adds the perfect amount of shimmer and glitter to your face. Apply it to your cheekbones, tip of your nose, or brow bones to naturally bring light to your face and make it shine in the best way. 

  • Lip Liner: Once you’ve found your go-to lip color, consider adding in a lip liner to define your lips, making the color appear more complete and your lips fuller!

Foundation

Fenty Beauty offers three different foundation options that are each great in their own way, but which one you use will depend on your makeup and coverage preferences.
