Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty Dropped Four Glossy New Lip Shades, and We Want Them All

Summertime might be the season of rosy cheeks, pink lips and natural looks when it comes to makeup, but that doesn’t mean you can’t add a little edge to your everyday glam once in a while! And honestly, who better to remind us of this than Rihanna?
The recording artist and Fenty Beauty founder, who launched the popular brand back in 2017, stopped by Instagram this week to unveil her latest drop. While other beauty lines are celebrating glowy skin and bronzey shades, Fenty Beauty is doing things a little differently by embracing the darker side of the season with four daring new hues in the line’s Gloss Bomb Stix High-Shine Gloss Sticks.
“only nudes I got til my 6pack come in!” Rihanna quipped in the caption of the announcement, which was shared on Instagram with her 145 million followers on Friday, July 10, alongside a video showcasing the shades. She went on to reveal the cheeky names of the new neutrals, adding that they were “curated for all skin tones, with explosive shine, luscious color + all-day, locked-in moisture in one twist.”
“Thoseeee lips mama!!! 🫦,” one commenter proclaimed, another humorously adding, “❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥THE NUDETY OF IT ALLL❤️❤️❤️”
