Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty first came onto the makeup scene when it launched in September 2017, and it has yet to stop creating waves within the beauty industry.
Fenty Beauty became one of the first makeup brands to offer over 40 (now 50) foundation shades. The company sits under luxury French corporation LVMH, and said company gave Fenty global distribution through multinational retailers Sephora. Sephora products were not easily accessible to African clientele until now.
The Barbadian beauty is currently pregnant, expecting her first child with her partner and fellow musician, American rapper A$AP Rocky.
