Beauty Products: Fenty Beauty Island Bling 2-In-1 Liquid Eye Shimmer

Fenty Beauty Island Bling 2-In-1 Liquid Eye Shimmer

Bling bling! Ready to get your shine on all summer? Well put some respect on your makeup game by copping the spanking new Fenty Beauty Island Bling 2-In-1 Liquid Eye Shimmer! It’s absolutely hypnotic.

Beauty Products: Fenty Beauty Island Bling 2-In-1 Liquid Eye Shimmer

So then, what can this little baby do? Uhm… can you say multi-faceted? Yes, Fenty Beauty’s latest beauty drop can serve an artistic multi-purpose if you do choose. You see Island Bling’s dual-ended design allows for two different finishes (Mamacita/Tini Kini) instead of one.

On one end of the product you will find a dazzling metallic eye shimmer. This shimmer can create a sleek eye look with brilliant, eye-popping tone. However, if you want to take things up a notch all you have to do is flip the script as well as the product over!

The other end of Island Bling contains an iridescent glitter topcoat. The cool thing is you can wear it alone. Which is great because glossy lids are still a major trend. Or you can mix it with the shimmer in order to create a spell-binding, hyper-prismatic shade. Now that’s getting a lot of bang for your buck.

Fenty Beauty Island Bling 2-In-1 Liquid Eye Shimmer

Furthermore, you don’t have to worry about looking ashy either. Fenty Beauty promises that they created their new liquid eye shimmer with all skin tones in mind. Thanks Rihanna.

Plus, this product will be great when creating summery makeup looks. How so? The millennial cosmetics brand in regards to Island Bling says that they developed it with, “sunset inspired shades [that] hypnotize with color -flipping micropearls that shift with light.”

Welp, we’re sold (LOL). Get yours too online and in-store. Island Bling 2-In-1 Liquid Eye Shimmer retails for $26.

Savage x Fenty Lingerie: Launch Party

Savage x Fenty Lingerie

Talk about standing room only. The Savage x Fenty Lingerie launch party was filled to compacity. Literally, every which way you turned someone was there.

Paparazzi eagerly snapped away from the moment of the lady of the hour’s arrival. Every half second a, “Rihanna over here,” could be heard echoing along the line of cameras and smartphones.

Savage x Fenty Lingerie

There was much to see. From racks carrying the long-awaited collection. To also large billboards  or graphic walls if you will; touting the company name and messages.

However, one of the biggest attractions of the night had to be the special effects feature. Leave it to Rihanna to launch a product in a way that is not only memorable, but futuristic.

While many choose to use actual models in order to showcase their merchandise. Rihanna went in the complete opposite direction. She used herself, multiplied.

Savage x Fenty Lingerie Savage x Fenty Lingerie Savage x Fenty Lingerie

Yes, via tech, Rihanna appeared before the party in the form of a hologram. The holographic Rihanna strutted across as well as up and down the stage in a mesmerizing, divine fashion.

Savage x Fenty Lingerie Savage x Fenty Lingerie

Savage x Fenty Lingerie: Launch Party (Continued)

Rih’s close friends were of course in attendance. Along with a slew of gorgeous models. However, it really came as no surprise. When you roll with the gorgeous Rihanna; you expect her squad to be “on the level.”

Savage x Fenty Lingerie

As industry and fans collided in order to celebrate Rihanna’s latest venture. Everyone’s RihMotions were clearly on edge. Being just hours away from the official launch; all invitees just wanted to see more and more of the final collection.

Savage x Fenty Lingerie

Robyn did not disappoint. In time she floated over to racks of her intimate apparel and in order to showcase items to the cameras. With so much buzz in the air it was clear… the Badgal had done it again!

Savage x Fenty Lingerie: Getting the Goods

In case you were wondering… yes, this collection too is going to sale out. If you attempted to log on to the www.savagex.com site in order to get your shopping on; you may have been met with a little informative screen.

The “line” getting into the online store is a beast in itself. Rihanna is no stranger to selling out of her products, and fast, so that this time she is doing her best to keep things orderly.

When Fenty Beauty dropped the website literally crashed. Like TKO. Therefore, this time consumers can get to the website, but can not begin to shop until space is made within the store.

If there is absolutely no space or room, purchasers are added to an queue. An ingenious method to keep the site from crashing and burning.

Savage x Fenty Lingerie

SavagexFenty Lingerie: Getting the Goods (Continued)

Another aspect of this queue that we like is the efficiency. Of course, you will receive an estimated wait time. However, you also do not need to wait around. You can close the window and your spot will be held for you.

For kicks and giggles we decided to test it out. Of course, fear initially gripped our bodies. Would our spot in line really be held for us? If there’s a glitch will we be booted to the bottom of the list?

Well, we had no reason to be afraid, because after closing out the window and returning; our spot in line was still there. WHEW! Also, a new window explaining that it was almost our turn to enter the store and if we wanted to leave the line we could.

Unfortunately, as much as we liked this process; it did not stop the site from running slow (most likely due to demand). Also, we were kicked out the store a couple times. Nevertheless, we like how things are being run thus far and look forward to FINALLY getting more sexy, savage-esqe gear.

Met Gala 2018: Over 20 Fascinating Facts and Fashion Controversy

Met Gala 2018

Met Gala 2018 stirred the high-end couture pot like no other fashion event before! Lines between art and religion blurred behind a backdrop of flashing lights and decadent red carpet flair. Celebrities and socialites radiantly posed for photogs; as they allowed their persona to interpret this year’s controversial theme.

Nonetheless, what happened behind the lens and paparazzi is nothing short of a miracle, (no pun intended). Here are the BTS (behind the scenes) stories and facts surrounding some of your favorite looks of the night!

Met Gala 2018 – Rihanna

Met Gala 2018

Sanctuary! Being a badgal, we do not expect Rih to ever play it safe or need fashion saving. Miss Fenty hit the masses with a one-two punch of iconic style. Chew on these Rihanna Met Gala ensemble tidbits:

Tons of Manpower: Laurie Brookins reveals, “Details on Rihanna’s Maison Margiela Artisanal look by John Galliano: A 3 piece ensemble of sculptural jacket and skirt over a bustier dress. All seafoam jacquard embellished with pearls and faux jewels. 250 hours to sew [and] 500 hours to embroider.” Goodness!

Met Gala 2018

Keeping It in the Family: Rihanna’s famed stylist, Mel Ottenberg, is no stranger to fashion royalty and mastermind, John Galliano. In regards to the renown designer Mel states, “John Galliano!!! The goat gave me my first job when I was a baby and designed this epic look for Rihanna tonight. Thank you John.”

Wave Like You Just Don’t Care: Yes, the fit was sick, but an outfit is nothing without great hair! Hairstylist, Yusef Williams ensured that Rih would dazzle from head to toe. In regards to Rih’s amazing hair look, Yusef says, “John Galliano is the inspiration of all inspiration. For this look, I wanted to go back in time and create this Vatican-homage, but with a single finger wave to make it feel modern and more avant garde.”

Met Gala 2018 – Rihanna (Cont.)

Met Gala 2018

They Nailed It: When you are Rihanna you most likely have a village working on your flawless look, right down to the nails! Nonetheless, have you ever wondered how celebs get those serious looking rhinestone and emblem nail designs to stay in place?

Well wonder no more, because we have learned the secret! Red Hot Nails aka Maria Salandra, spilled the deets on Fenty’s Met Gala 2018 nail design. RHN gushes, “It’s amazing to see your creativity come to life, especially if Badgalriri is the inspiration! Thank you again to Tammy Taylor Nails. I am so proud to have partnered with you for this event!

My mentor, my friend and guru of acrylic nails! Thank you to Swarowski for the crystals! The embellishments are secured to the nail with THE ONLY RHINESTONE gel I use, Diamond Gel by Apres Nail.” We are going to cop some stat!

Met Gala 2018 – Rihanna, More Facts on Facts on Facts

Take a Brow: Rihanna’s team does deserve a round of applause for everything they executed and on time no less. One thing that fans certainly noticed was Rih’s different eye brow look. If you guessed bleached brows then you would be correct!

Met Gala 2018

We got the lowdown from the brow genius himself, Damone Roberts! Damone reveals, “And then THIS happened! Rihanna at The Met Gala 2018. When Ri tells you to fly 3,000 miles from L.A. to N.Y; bleach her brows to blend into her skin and STILL have them sculpted to perfection… you do it!

All makeup by Fenty executed to perfection by Priscilla Ono. All brow makeup by Damone Roberts. Brow powder in “Ginger,” Brow Highlighter in “Stone Cold B*tch.” [Get them at] www.DamoneRoberts.com.”

Met Gala 2018 – Rihanna, More Facts on Facts on Facts (Cont.)

Met Gala 2018

Hats Away: Couture designer, John Galliano slayed Rihanna’s look during the first Monday of May’s festivities. However, her hat was a loaner. Say what?!

Yes, the verdict is in, Fenty’s now infamous papal, bejeweled hat; is a miter from Cardinal Timothy Dolan. Mister Dolan serves as head of New York’s Roman Catholic diocese.

In regards to loaning out a miter to the pop star, Timothy did confirm that Rihanna did not keep the garment. In fact in an interview with SiriusXM Dolan says, “The news said she was wearing a tiara. [Not correct]. She gave it back to me this morning… She was very gracious.”

Met Gala 2018 – Zendaya

Met Gala 2018

 

Chain Reaction: Let’s switch up gears in order to gab about another stylish doll! Zendaya Coleman was a starlet who to us, perfectly married the art behind the Gala theme with spellbinding couture. Daya rocked a stunning number designed by the Versace luxury label.

Regarding the design Versace states, “Knight in shining Versace. Zendaya in a Joan of Arc inspired, custom molded Atelier Versace look at the 2018 Met Gala. Featuring gunmetal chainmail embellished with Swarowski crystals, flowing into a feminine fully beaded silk chiffon skirt.”

Met Gala 2018

Such a Gem: Jewelry is an excellent way to add more drama to an ensemble. For her Versace Met Ball after party look; Zendaya wore jewels by Butani. Butani dishes that Daya wore their Butani Diamond and Titanium Hoop earrings. The luxury jewelry and watches brand also loaned diamond studs to fellow singer, Ariana Grande.

Met Gala 2018

Butani enjoys a long history of adding gleaming details to celebrity looks. This just year Butani has been spotted on Jennifer Hudson, actress Kiersy, Mary J. blige and Mariah Carey.

Met Gala 2018 – Tiffany Haddish

Doesn’t Matter If You’re Black or White: Now we are used to singer Janelle Monae’s monochromatic looks. However, Tiffany’s Met Ball outfit could not be ignored either! Haddish walked the red carpet in glittering design by Brandon Maxwell. Brandon revealed the inspiration behind the effortless look.

Met Gala 2018

Maxwell states, “Tiffany’s look was all about purity with a dash of the wild side. One of the very first things you notice when you meet Tiffany is how effortlessly fresh and beautiful she is; a very pure heart with most fun spirit.

Hand made in our studio in New York, she wears an ivory triple layer lapel twill robe with train. [As well as] hand beaded black pearl leopard pants on georgette.”

Met Gala 2018

What is georgette? In short it is a type of fabric. Named after the early 20th century French dressmaker Georgette de la Plante; georgette is a sheer, dull-finished crepe and lightweight fabric. It is made with highly twisted yarns even though originally it was made from silk.

Met Gala 2018 – Dress Up

Met Gala 2018

Tommy x HM: Don’t be fooled by rocks that they got, even celebrities at times dress up up in retailers that us mere mortals wear. For instance, several famous faces strutted the red carpet in custom designs by Tommy Hilfiger as well as H&M.

Met Gala 2018

Tommy dressed models, Joan Smalls and Winnie Harlow. While H&M had a busy night dressing actress Kiersy as well as models, Alek Wek and Jasmine Sanders.

Met Gala 2018

Met Gala 2018 – Controversy and Disgust

While there were those who praised Anna Wintour’s selection or subject of motif. Many others found it inappropriate and simply declasse. This year’s Met Ball theme was, Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.

Is this really far-fetched or something to be viewed as abominable? Well, throughout history religion has had its powerful display in the art realm. Renaissance anyone? During this popular and distinctive period art pieces often included religious scenes ranging from the birth of Jesus Christ to depictions of his human mother, Mary.

Met Gala 2018

However, paintings and sculptures are one thing. For many believers in God; fashion is an art that is a step too far. This is because fashion is about self-expression and can be manipulated or used as a vehicle to poke fun of something quite serious.

Met Gala 2018 – Controversy and Disgust (Cont.)

Quite a few felt as though the 2018 theme was only dreamt up as a publicity stunt. Nevertheless, here are a few other relative thoughts people had regarding the Gala’s theme and fashions.

“What a disgrace! Mocking religion to create controversy and bring the public’s attention. This is not fashion or art. This is a circus!”

“Super weird.”

“Horrible.”

“What is this? The met gala theme was basically Catholicism.”

“This is so weird lmao.”

“The worst!!!”

“Why why why?? Even if it horrible, and looks terrible, just because its HER, everyone is “OMG THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED TO HUMANITYYYY!! Why?”

“RIDICULOUS. This is no longer a gala but a circus.”

“I bet they wouldn’t make fun of other religions, but of course they chose the catholics because they won’t make a major fuss.”

“Awfully horrible.”

“So disrespectful.”

“Vatican is gonna be pissed.”

“It’s blasphemous.”

“Not nice. You guys how and why this theme? Have respect!”

Met Gala 2018 – Controversy and Disgust, Final Thoughts

Met Gala 2018

The Met Museum wants to put everyone at ease with their latest exhibit. The museum assures all that it is not a mockery; but a display of the undeniable connection between art and religious couture.

The Met Museum states,

“The exhibition will feature a dialogue between fashion and medieval art. From The Met Collection to examine fashion’s ongoing engagement with the devotional practices and traditions of Catholicism.

Heavenly Bodies on view from May 10 through October 8 at The Met Fifth Avenue and The Met Collection.”

Savage x Fenty – Rihanna Lingerie Dropping May 11-EVERYTHING TO KNOW!

Savage x Fenty

Welp… didn’t she tell us she was? Rihanna is at it again to snatch every dollar out of our wallets (and wigs) with a “savage” lingerie line aptly named, Savage x Fenty! The brand is set to drop in just a few weeks on May 11. Right in time for those summer Baes and flings. Date night anyone?

Rihanna’s sassy intimates label takes its inspiration from her hit song, Needed Me. In the pre-chorus Rih can be heard singing, “But baby, don’t get it twisted. You was just another n@#ga on the hit list. Tryna fix your inner issues with a bad b$&ch. Didn’t they tell you that I was a savage.”

The savagery line took off like a wildfire since the song’s release back in March of 2016; and Rih continues to use it to not only further brand herself, but also her stylish merchandise. Savage which can refer to someone being stinging, fierce or ravening; is certainly fitting to the image of the world’s favorite Badgal as well as her future collection of lingerie.

Savage x Fenty – Rihanna Lingerie Dropping May 11… EVERYTHING TO KNOW

However, what is the connection between Fenty’s video and intimate apparel? Well, in the Needed Me music video Rihanna famously wore a number of chic styles. The one that stuck out in everyone’s fashion mind, was an insanely gorgeous light blue Italian silk organza long couture robe with matching bottoms. Nonetheless, was Rihanna here hinting at a future lingerie collection in this video?

Savage x Fenty

In all honesty, there is a pretty good hunch to think that she was. Fenty enjoys a long history of dropping hints at her upcoming releases. For instance, at the Grammy Awards in 2017 Rihanna donned jewelry from her luxury Chopard collaboration collection way before it hit the market.

Savage x Fenty

Also, more recently, Robyn gave the world Wild Thoughts in her 2018 Grammys performance with DJ Khaled.

How to Trim Your Bangs

Beauty Tip-Save yourself some muhla and trim your bangs yourself.

After you wash and blow dry your hair, flat iron your hair till smooth. Gather bangs and twist hair several times, but not too tightly otherwise you may trim tresses too short. Next, depending on how long you want your bangs, trim hair either above or below your fingers holding the twist. Remember it is best to start longer, because you can always re-twist and re-cut in order to make bangs shorter.

Fenty Beauty Body Lava and Fairy Bomb Pom Pom! EVERY DETAIL!

Fenty Beauty Body Lava

Rihanna has the Internet crashing over news regarding her latest upcoming release. You ready? Better be because they’re here, the Fenty Beauty Body Lava and Fairy Bomb Pom Pom! A sexy step away from her sick lineup of lipsticks and diverse foundations. So then, what are these new beauty must-haves for summer 2018?

Literally, just the products that will be in every beauties makeup arsenal. Starting with the Fenty Beauty Body Lava, this gem is a full body luminizer that will give your skin an out of this world gleaming effect. Like forget highlighter, Rihanna’s body illuminators are all that is necessary in order to achieve an intense, all day wear glow up.

Fenty Beauty Body Lava

Miss Fenty is kicking off her Body Lava collection with not one, but two luxurious tones. Beginning on April 6th you will be able to purchase the Fenty Beauty Body Lava in both: Brown Sugar and Who Needs Clothes.

Brown Sugar is the deeper of the two body illuminating products. It has a more golden, coppery finish unlike Who Needs Clothes with it’s more pink pearl, lighter appearance. Nonetheless, each one packs a powerful, mesmerizing punch.

However, even though Rihanna is flaunting it, why should one use an illuminator? What is it’s sole purpose anyway? To answer those questions allow us to ask, “Well, have you seen the Gram lately?” Everyone is glowing like they were created from the sun directly.

Nevertheless, not all of us are born with picture perfect skin with gorgeous luminousity. In fact, most of us are not. Thus, why using an illuminator product can come in handy; among other reasons, here are just a few:

Radiance– At times our delicate skin can look a little dull. Adding a smidge of product with a sparkling effect can instantly give skin a boost. Allowing for a more natural, healthy finish.

Go Baby Go– We’re all busy, so being able to brighten and enhance on the fly is anyone’s dream. Body luminizers are easy to use and give off super quick results. Instead of months of treatments you can get a celebrity glow in seconds.

Like a Rose Petal– Another amazing aspect of these glowing products are that they usually contain some sort of skin softening agent. Therefore, not only do you get to enjoy awesome highlighting elements, but softer, smoother feeling skin. WINNING!

Definition– Why do you use highlighter on your face? Besides it looking absolutely fabulous in a selfie, you most likely also use it for its contouring benefits. Highlighter allows users to bring out their best features while slightly altering the ones they are not so fond of. The same can be accomplished with a body luminizer.

You can apply it to only the areas you decide, in order to give definition and more contour to your body. Got a great chest? Show it off by illuminating it. Got sexy shoulders, taut stomach or neckline? Well then, you know what to do! Body illuminators can help you enhance any body part that you love.

So now that you know why you should use an illuminator, you may be wondering how exactly it works. Well, its pretty simple. You see these products are formulated with gentle pearlescent molecules that shimmer and shine once applied.

They can reflect light so that whether you are chilling on the beach or serving looks at a party; your skin can look A-list status. While the lightly textured mixture should make quite the impact with one pass. It can also still be layered in order to achieve even more intense yet beautiful results.

So we all have something to definitely be excited about when it comes to the release of Fenty Beauty Body Lava. However, did you know it is actually a member of a much bigger product lineup? Yup, it’s true, the Lava illuminators are apart of the Fenty Beauty Beach Please Collection.

As a result, Rihanna took to social media to talk about her new glow-worthy products. On Instagram she says,

“Summer came early with my Beach Please collection [by] Fenty Beauty. Body Lava Luminizer and Fairy Bomb glittering Pom Pom are coming to fentybeauty.com, Sephora, Harvey Nichols and Sephora in JCP on April 6th!”

Besides the nice reveal to fans the world’s favorite Badgal went a step further. Yes, Rih went full YouTube style on us all with tutorials demonstrating exactly how to use the new Beach Please collection. The tutorials were not only enlightening and a great plug for the line itself; but, also gave a cool sneak peek about another tool!

Beach Please will also incorporate a new kubuki brush to help one and all get their glow on. The brush works hand in hand with the Fenty Beauty Body Lava Luminizers to blend them in seamlessly into the skin. Not only will this provide a more professional looking finish; but will also help keep fingers clean. Since who really wants to deal with a messy application? UHM, no one (Lol).

Now that we have talked extensively about brushes and illuminating body lava. However, there’s still one more item to discuss and it’s just as fabulous! If you’re not feeling liquid, then maybe glowing up with powder will be more your speed. Enter the Fenty Beauty Fairy Pom Pom!

Remember wanting to steal Tinker Bell’s wand so you can sprinkle pixie dust everywhere? Oh wait, that was just us (haha)? Well, now you can dust yourself with a powder puff loaded with glitter.

The Fairy Pom Pom is reminiscent of old Hollywood. You may be reminded of classic starlets sitting in front of their vanities daintily patting themselves with powder puffs. Nonetheless, this is not your grandma’s powder. Instead of being baby powder fresh you will be able to puff your skin to a more luminous epidermis.

Fenty Beauty Body Lava

As one can see April 6th is gearing up to be quite a busy shopping day. However, since we are sure that the Beach Please Collection will sell like hot cakes there are a few things you should know. For instance, the collection will available for purchase on the 6th on the Fenty Beauty as well as Sephora website. Also, the Sephora app will have purchasing powers.

Furthermore, items will also be available via Harvey Nichols and Sephora at JCP just at different times. Availability will begin at 8a.m. on the Harvey Nichols website; and 10 a.m. in store at Harvey Nichols and Sephora at JCP. That’s it for now, happy shopping everyone!
