Fashionable Mention: Fenty Centerfold Sunglasses -The Fall Season Sunnies

Fenty Centerfold Sunglasses

The thing about fashion is that it stands still for no man or woman. Trends are flying in and out faster than an international airport. However, that is also the beauty of couture. Since it is always evolving; you can update or morph your personal style to fit whatever mood or season you are vibing. For instance, fashion accessories that work in the summer may need a little adjustment come autumn. Which is why we endorse the Fenty Centerfold Sunglasses; an ode to futuristic and modern voguish style.

Fashionable Mention: Fenty Centerfold Sunglasses -The Fall Season Sunnies

How Sway… these sunglasses by Rihanna are a great because they are not the typical design. Forget cat-eye, aviators or round frames. These babies are more architectural. Making them more edgy, fierce and bolder than the norm.

This type of style is perfect for fall because looks tend to need a tad boost here or there; due to not having the boisterous colors/prints of summer and spring. Plus, glitzy fashion that is popular towards the end of the year needs accessories that possess just as much “POP.” If you are wearing a statement outfit your accessories need to fall in line too.

Fenty Centerfold Sunglasses

Therefore, if you are the type that loves to stand out from the crowd these sunglasses will definitely work for your fashion prowess. Plus, they are great for travel since they are not bulky. The “slim” and sleek design allows them to fold up COMPLETELY flat. Check it out below to see what we mean:

Fashionable Mention: Centerfold Sunglasses

Pretty neat right? Well, the Fenty brand has a little more to stay about this accessory. In regards to the Centerfold Sunglasses the brand states,

“A play of light for the eyes. A play of folds for the hands. The Centerfold, in Black Smoke and Denim Blue.

Light yet strong. Bold but elusive. The Centerfold is a laser cut eye mask that covers the face when worn and completely folds flat when not.”

One other feature to note about these Fenty Sunglasses is the category lense rating. These spectacles come with a category 2 rating. Meaning? That rating that shows that the sunnies will provide a medium level of sun glare reduction and good UV protection.

Category 2 lenses are the most common category you will find in sunglasses sold in fashion. They are manufactured for general use and they provide good protection from visible light as well as UV rays. So if protecting your eyes is just as important as style to you then you will not need to worry thanks to the choice of lense for the Fenty Centerfold.

Fenty Beauty Ultra Fine Brow Pencil & Styler -Brows Will Be Savage!

 

Fenty Beauty Ultra Fine Brow Pencil & Styler

Rihanna still has her peddle on the metal as she drives Fenty Beauty to newer heights! While everyone thought Rih was still partying it up in Barbados at this year’s Cropover festival; this business mogul had other plans! In a surprise appearance Miss Fenty hit the scene at a Sephora event in Las Vegas, Nevada; AND dropped a bomb announcement about new Fenty Beauty makeup products being on the way! Hold onto your brow hairs dolls because Fenty Beauty Ultra Fine Brow Pencil & Styler is coming!

Proof This Brow Product Is Really Happening!

Some people snatch our edges; but Rihanna snatches our eyebrows clear OFF! Yes, the next generation of Fenty Beauty is moving into the brow shaping and defining products arena.

Okay guys, so here’s what we know. While no official imagery, visuals or announcements have been made; the smoking gun came from Rihanna herself. In Vegas, at the Sephora’s Store Leadership Conference; Badgalriri had this to say,

“I was not gonna come all the way to Vegas empty handed. So we’re gonna give you guys an exclusive sneak peek of one of the next products coming out—the very next product coming out.”

What was the sneak peek? Brow pencils! Attendees were treated to an exclusive video showing the new Fenty Beauty cosmetics item coming down the pipeline. In the video the Brow Pencils were named, “Ultra Fine Brow Pencil & Styler.”

For the last several years brows have become BIG business, seeing a major influx of brow creation products hitting the market. Especially, for those who like the permanent brow makeup look (think very separated, defined, microblading finish). Nevertheless, Rihanna is continuing to follow her usual success formula when it comes to her amazing cosmetics; which is: Ensure everyone is covered. How will she accomplish this with her new brow items?

Fenty Beauty Ultra Fine Brow Pencil & Styler -Brows Will Be Savage

For one thing, there will be plenty of shade options. In terms of eyebrow pencils this is HUMONGOUS news. Usually, with many brands there are only 4-5 MAIN eyebrow tones that can be purchased. We’re sure you have noticed the shortage of colors too in your makeup search.

Right now most companies will offer a typical brown, light brown, darker brown and a black. That poses a problem because everyone’s skin tone and especially eyebrow hair color; is not going to be able to be squeezed to fit four or five colors. It’s just impossible.

Plus, that is not how you create a natural looking brow anyway. We asked all of our Pro makeup artist experts to weigh in; and they all said the same thing. For more natural looking eyebrows when using pencil you want to go up just ONE shade lighter than your natural brow hair color. Just so the ending result does not look “harsh.” This poses a problem IF there is not a suitable color available to do this beauty tip.

However, recently there have been exceptions. There are companies working hard to fill this makeup need. For instance, NYX brow pencils came in at least 8 shades and at a price point many can easily afford. Also, the king brand of brows, Benefit currently has a brow pencil lineup of 12 hues.

Furthermore, small color range shouldn’t really surprise anyone. Literally, it is the same problem that went on for decades when it came to Foundation. Not every color, or selection fit everyone. Your choices were go ashy, bare face/natural or mix different ones up in your bathroom like a mad scientist. Bleak.

Brow Game Changer -Product Details!

Fenty Beauty Ultra Fine Brow Pencil & Styler

 

That is until Rihanna came and changed the game. Now other brands are rushing to create more “inclusive” tones in order to bring in the sales. Nevertheless, now Rihanna is set to cause the same revolution in the brow realm.

Her Fenty Beauty Ultra Fine Pencil and Styler will come in over ten shades. To be exact in a promo teaser from Rihanna’s surprise Las Vegas visit; it reveals a total of 14 shades! A range quite unheard of in the industry.

Forget the days of having to settle for jet black eyebrows. Blondes, redheads, brunettes, raven black tone hair persons and everyone in-between will be able to enjoy Brow colors more suited to them.

Plus, the design of her pencils are literally exactly what you want when creating the perfect brow. For example, if you were using a makeup brush to create your eyebrow look; you would want to use an angled brush. That is because it will give you more control when creating nice clean strokes.

However, Fenty Beauty’s design is like the angled brush and brow color in one! A close view showcases Rihanna’s pencil with an angled tip. The pencil also looks to be “self-sharpening” so you can expect a great finish every time.

Plus, that means less work for you. Since who us really enjoys always having to keep a pencil sharpener around? Self-sharpening is the way to go and any company willing to make our beauty lives easier; we’re totally down with them and completely FINE handing over our coins.

Additionally, this Fenty Beauty Eyebrow Pencil will not be some big ol’ uncontrollable crayon. The sleek, thinner design will give you extra control whether you are holding it with your entire hand; or between a few fingers.

As one can see, Robyn continues to be innovative in how see expands her beauty empire. Design, efficiency, ease of use and of course; inclusiveness continues to be the main focus of her products.

Buying Options

Nevertheless, when can Fenty Beauty fans expect to get their hands on the new eyebrow pencils? Well, the wait will not be long at all. They are dropping this month!

Yes, mark your calendars because August is product drop month. Get yourself an Ultra Fine Pencil and Styler on August 23! Hurry because we are sure these babies are going to sell out FAST!

How to Cop It: On the release date you can get your Fenty Beauty Brow Pencil at SEPHORA as well as www.FentyBeauty.com.

Brow Tips

Since Rihanna’s Brow Pencil is coming we thought we would share a few tips in order to help your brow game be even more on point! Have you ever wondered how to choose the RIGHT eyebrow pencil color? Well, you’re going to learn today! These tips are from actual industry MUAs. Enjoy!

1966 Questions: Help us! How do you choose the right eyebrow pencil color?

“1966 good question, only with brow gels would you use the same color as your eyebrows. With brow pencils, it’s a little different. You want to go one shade lighter because you want the look to be softer.

Ever seen those innocent souls with very severe looking brows? Like my heart goes out to them! Everyone notices but not in a good way. Avoid that.

When you’re drawing the illusion of hair, it will always look unnatural if the pencil is darker or as dark as your hair. The lighter color gives it the dimension it needs.”

1966 Questions: Why do you use a particular color?

“I personally like to use a pencil shade 1-2 shades lighter than  my client’s actual natural hair color. It helps the eyebrow I create look more defined.”

1966 Questions: Can a person just use the hair on their head as a guide?

“I always say that the best brows are very close to your natural hair color. Not exact, but close.

Like look at redheads, are their eyebrows red? Their brows always look amazing with auburn or a hint of light brown. Or some with dark black hair actually have deep brown brows. So don’t get hung up on your hair color. You won’t get a natural look that way.”

Rihanna Covers Harper's Bazaar China August 2019

Rihanna Covers Harper’s Bazaar China August 2019 Issue!

Rihanna Covers Harper's Bazaar China August 2019

Back together again! If you recall in 2015, Rihanna served MAJOR fierceness on a cover for China’s Harper’s Bazaar. Well, the pairing is back with a new set of photography that’s just as stunningly gorgeous. BEHOLD… Rihanna Covers Harper’s Bazaar China August 2019 Issue!

Rihanna Covers Harper’s Bazaar China August 2019 Issue

Why did Bazaar choose Rihanna as their August cover girl? The magazine states that it is because of Rihanna’s record-breaking career and glamorous personal style; among other things. In regards to Rih Bazaar says,

“Singer, icon, entrepreneur… Rihanna has different titles and gets more and more influence at the same time. With the influence, she chooses to make a voice for the minority; showing the incredible feminine power.

There is always a brave truthfulness on Rihanna. She doesn’t care about judgments from others, just keep in doing what she loves. After four years, Rihanna is back to be our cover star; and again shows when western style icon meets eastern aesthetic.

Being born in Barbados, Rihanna has worked her way up from ‘nobody’ to ‘somebody’ with her musical talents. She is now a role model for girls all over the world; and she is even the ‘king of pop.’

Titles and Things

Oh the controversy! Many did not like the comments referring to Rihanna as the ‘king of pop.’ Some felt being a woman she should be called a queen not a king. Additionally, the iconic Michael Jackson was THE only true “king of pop” recognized by most in the world; therefore, numerous music fans feel that the title should remain with him.

Harper’s Bazaar’s response? Well, this looks a case of mistaken meaning. The Editor of Harper’s Bazaar China had this to say:

“Our [August cover star] Rihanna, she is the queen of music and pop. [Her] changing image always breaks the imagination of everyone. [This is her] second time to board the Chinese version of Bazaar, [and this time too] she brings us amazing Chinese elements again!”

Therefore, to us in seems as though Bazaar China was just trying to show and indicate Rihanna’s powerful influence; as well as dominance in the pop industry in general. No one can deny her major success and it is something that should be recognized.

So then, congrats to Miss Fenty for breaking the music mold. Plus, hots off to Bazaar China for yet another stunning set of visuals featuring the one and only, Rihanna!
