Since she first appeared on the music scene back in 2005, Barbadian singer Rihanna has captivated audiences with her hit songs and more often than not risque attire.
But even when she divides opinion when it comes to her clothes, everyone is in agreement that the four times Grammy winner is a beautiful woman, who can rock many different make-up looks.
So we asked Wendy Coleman, owner of Relaxed and Waxed beauty salon in Kettering, to give us her expert advice when it comes to one of Rihanna’s recent red carpet looks.
Wendy said: “Rihanna has a flawless base, this can be achieved by having an airbrushed foundation base, this will initially even out the skin tone and conceal much better than using ordinary foundations.
“It is a long stay silicone base which sits on top of the skin rather than sinking into it.
“Airbrushed bronzer is then sprayed all over to give a warmer, healthy glow and rose pink blush finishes the base, a good tip is to smile while applying the blusher.
“Rihanna’s eyebrows are perfectly shaped to lift and draw attention to the eye area.
“ To recreate these gorgeous eyes, firstly apply black kohl eyeliner around the whole inner rim of the eye above and below, and right into the corners, as this will frame the eye.
“Then highlight the eye by using a light slightly pink shadow, apply this over the lower lid taking it all the way to and past the inner corner of the eye, and sweep a little above.
“Use a cream shade over the rest of the upper area to the brow line.
“ Then a medium brown shadow is used on the eye socket area.
“Apply black liquid eyeliner to the top lid, and finally add lashings of lengthening mascara on upper and lower lashes to finish the eyes off to perfection.
“For the lips, apply a subtle rose lip liner, blend in and use a clear high shine lip gloss all over to complete this look.”
