FENTY BEAUTY Gives Me Hope For The Beauty Industry
MagiMania

On September 8, Rihanna released her long-awaited FENTY BEAUTY sold at Sephora. The collection features everything a girl could need to have a beat face. Products such as brushes, primers, lip glosses and highlighters, you name it and most likely it's there.

But what really has women talking is the fact that this collection was made with diversity in mind. The foundation comes in 40 shades allowing women to pick the shade that best suits their skin tone.

When creating this collection, you can tell that Rihanna thought about the fairest of skins and the darkest complexions when design this line. And I truly appreciate that.

I’m an African American woman and since I started wearing makeup it’s always been the struggle finding the perfect foundation. It’s either too light or too dark. As a result, I end up buying two different shades and mixing them to get my perfect complexion. The idea of being able to go into Sephora and test out more than two shades give me hope for the future.

It’s my hope that more beauty companies, especially drugstore brands follow her lead. And produce more shades for foundations and concealers, because everyone deserves to have a beat face in the right complexion.

Here are some thoughts I’ve probably had since FENTY BEAUTY dropped this past week.

1. Well, there goes my next paycheck.

2. There are so many foundation options, I don’t know where to start.

3. Stepping out of the house with FENTY BEAUTY on for the first time.

I love Rihanna and I can't wait to get my hands on her makeup collection.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
