Hide AdIt was announced back in April that Rihanna would be creating her own beauty line in collaboration with the Kendo division of LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, in a deal for $10 million.
Born Robyn Rihanna Fenty, the Barbadian singer/songwriter and actress has released a campaign video which gives a few clues as to what we can expect. It showcases just one product, a creamy lipgloss, although there seems to be a focus on highlighter too, as the models have glistening cheeks.
The campaign features a diverse range of models and includes plus-size model Paloma Elsesser, with Indyamarie Jean, Leomie Anderson, Camila Costa, and Rihanna herself. The models also talk through the different shades in sister videos - look out for Chili Mango, Hustler Baby, Wrong, No Charge, Starstruck and Fire Crystal, to name a few.
Those in the know are also expecting Nineties’ pastel eyeshadow shades, possibly false lashes or a volume mascara and a great liquid liner to get her cat-eye flick, nude lipsticks including a definitive one for darker skin tones, and a fabulous red. With MAC she created RiRi Woo, inspired by MAC’s classic red Ruby Woo.
