Fashionable Mention: Fenty Centerfold Sunglasses -The Fall Season Sunnies

Fenty Centerfold Sunglasses

Since it is always evolving; you can update or morph your personal style to fit whatever mood or season you are vibing. For instance, fashion accessories that work in the summer may need a little adjustment come autumn. Which is why we endorse the Fenty Centerfold Sunglasses; an ode to futuristic and modern voguish style.

Fashionable Mention: Fenty Centerfold Sunglasses -The Fall Season Sunnies

How Sway… these sunglasses by Rihanna are a great because they are not the typical design. Forget cat-eye, aviators or round frames. These babies are more architectural. Making them more edgy, fierce and bolder than the norm.

This type of style is perfect for fall because looks tend to need a tad boost here or there; due to not having the boisterous colors/prints of summer and spring. Plus, glitzy fashion that is popular towards the end of the year needs accessories that possess just as much “POP.” If you are wearing a statement outfit your accessories need to fall in line too.

Fenty Centerfold Sunglasses

Therefore, if you are the type that loves to stand out from the crowd these sunglasses will definitely work for your fashion prowess. Plus, they are great for travel since they are not bulky. The “slim” and sleek design allows them to fold up COMPLETELY flat. Check it out below to see what we mean:

Fashionable Mention: Centerfold Sunglasses

Pretty neat right? Well, the Fenty brand has a little more to stay about this accessory. In regards to the Centerfold Sunglasses the brand states,

“A play of light for the eyes. A play of folds for the hands. The Centerfold, in Black Smoke and Denim Blue.

Light yet strong. Bold but elusive. The Centerfold is a laser cut eye mask that covers the face when worn and completely folds flat when not.”

One other feature to note about these Fenty Sunglasses is the category lense rating. These spectacles come with a category 2 rating. Meaning? That rating that shows that the sunnies will provide a medium level of sun glare reduction and good UV protection.

Category 2 lenses are the most common category you will find in sunglasses sold in fashion. They are manufactured for general use and they provide good protection from visible light as well as UV rays. So if protecting your eyes is just as important as style to you then you will not need to worry thanks to the choice of lense for the Fenty Centerfold.

Fenty Beauty Brow MVP

Fenty Beauty Brow MVP -Transform Your Look in Seconds!

 

Fenty Beauty Brow MVP

Started at Sephora and now we here! Yes, makeup loves Fenty Beauty Brow MVP started as a “not so secret” cosmetics rumor at a recent Sephora event held in Las Vegas, Nevada. However, now the official first looks of this new Rihanna makeup product is here; and trust us… it is going to COMPLETELY transform for your makeup!

Fenty Beauty Brow MVP -Transform Your Look in Seconds!

Fenty Beauty Brow MVP

What’s new? The design Baby Girl, you HAVE TO get into this brow product’s design! It’s a dual ended Brow Pencil that makes shaping and defining your eyebrows a cinch.

Seriously, quicker than you can say, “Draw me like one of your French girls Jack;” Brow MVP whips your eyebrows into high gear. How? First of all, magic lies within the pencil itself. It is self-sharpening.

While that in itself may not seem like a big butt deal, in makeup creation it is. You see, as a pencil continues to be used it effects the tip. In a couple of uses you can go from perfection, to omg what happened?! Moreover, the tip is everything, it’s how you make lines look cleaner and more defined.

Self sharpening products rock because they help prevent application issues. Since as with use, the tip tends to get too fat to make a thin line. Furthermore, when it comes to Brow shaping for the most natural looking finish you need precision. Precise, thin strokes that resemble actual Brow hair. Without the self-sharpening feature one would have to constantly use a sharpener in order to consistently get the same great results.

The Fenty Beauty Brow MVP accomplishes this without you even having to think about it. No fat tips! Brow MVP gives you a sharp edge to work with, each and every time. PLUS… this means less makeup equipment is needed, saving you time and money.

No need to invest in eyebrow pencil sharpener because Rihanna’s brow pencil is well-designed to give you the “sharp” look you crave. That’s one of the reasons it’s the MVP (insert cheers and applause).

Fenty Beauty Brow MVP – “Brushing Up” on Technique

Moving on to a few other features we love about this amazing product; let’s talk about that brush honey child! Like… leave it Rih to come with an ACTUAL brush, brush.

With eyebrow pencils most of us are probably use to the kind that is just one row of bristles; OR the kind that resembles an eyelash separation comb tool. Heck, some of us are still out here doing the most with a toothbrush (and we feel no shame lol). Nevertheless, it wouldn’t be Rihanna to just hop on the already non-innovative eyebrow pencil train. She’s extra, and my gawd do we all love her for it!

Her mini brush design will not miss a hair, as you brush your brow hairs into the desired look. Nonetheless, why is a brow brush important in the first place? Brow brushes help to tame and shape your eyebrows.

Why Use a Brow Brush When Shaping

Works the same as an actual hair brush would. When you brush your hair you are able to “tame” strands in order to create a particular style. Brow brushes accomplish the same result. Moreover, regardless, if your brows are thicker than a snicker or super thin a brush will help your brows look 10x better.

For instance, when you take a closer look into current eyebrow trends; you will notice that full brows are all the rage. So then, a trick to creating the illusion of big, hard-not-notice brows is to brush them upward. On the other hand, if your hairs are a little too long and lean looking, you can easily trim them up by snipping the excess hair after brushing them down.

Moreover, some other eyebrow brush tips that we picked up from our makeup pro buddies is to:

• Brush all hairs upward with an eyebrow grooming brush, then use tiny scissors to trim any tips that stick out.

• After brushing hairs up, take a slanted tweezer and pluck strays from beneath your brow to help elongate and slim the face.

The Secret is Out… Get Rihanna’s Eyebrow Look!

Want brows like Rihanna? Well, now you can! Her personal makeup artist and global Fenty Beauty ambassador, Priscilla Ono; gave up all the beauty intel! Ono reveals,

“Fun fact, for Rihanna’s brows she actually likes to use two colors. She does a slightly darker color at the very end of her brow and then a lighter color on the beginning of the brow so it gives this ombre effect.

This was really a labor of love for Rihanna. She really wanted to make sure we were inclusive not only on skin, but also for brow.”

Got it? Now you may be wondering why you should use two different eyebrow pencil colors instead of one. We actually was wondering the same thing too. The verdict? Using 2 different shades helps add dimension the same way highlights work to break up hair color.

Pretty cool right? Nevertheless, Ono is a wealth of makeup knowledge besides knowing how to highlight your brows properly. She also knows how YOU will be able to get the most beautiful results from Brow MVP! In a demonstration Ono suggests:

• Warming up the product on the back of your  hand so the color delivers evenly immediately.

•Also, for a pro level look remember to brush the hairs upwards.

•Lastly, do not allow the look of the brow to intimidate you. Since this tool is unlike your typical spoolie on the ends of most brow products it will still help deliver the same gentle results!

Brow MVP literally comes with a real looking brush that looks like a hair brush that’s been shrunk down for our using pleasure.

BONUS: Check out more on what Ono had to say below!

THE MOST Important Feature of Fenty Beauty Brow MVP

Fenty Beauty Brow MVP

Besides, all of the cool design features that are apart of this launch; the most important part CANNOT be ignored… the colors! Yes, babes this product has some SERIOUS range. As our previous exclusive on this brow pencil by Rihanna mentioned; Brow MVP is dropping with an impressive 14 shades availability.

Why is this so outstanding? For one thing, eyebrows come in more tones than just the typical or usual Brow product colors; dark brown or black. Like Foundation, Rihanna is pushing the boundary forward when it comes to eyebrow pencil hues.

Now whether you have black hair, brown hair or are a blonde; or a redhead. Within Fenty Beauty’s range you can locate a shade that matches better to your natural eyebrow color. For a natural looking match, means a natural looking finish.

Okay… So… Now What?

After this cool release the question still remains, okay so what’s next? Rihanna has been successfully and systematically releasing cosmetics for every area of the face. Us fans are loving EVERYTHING and the proof is in the numbers.

As of now Fenty is kicking butt and taking makeup names by:

• The Fenty Effect: 500 million euros. That figure represents the sales generated by Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty range in its first full year in business, LVMH reported during February 2019.

• Forbes reported that following 15 months of operation, in 2018, Fenty Beauty accumulated US$570 million in revenue.

• Time Magazine named their Most Genius Companies of 2018, and recognized Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty.

• When the brand debuted in September 2017 it causally made $72 million in one month.

As one can see, it is clear that Rihanna gets and understands her makeup market. They cry out for Hydrating Foundation; and BOOM she gives it to them. Nevertheless, what is the latest demand?

Mascara. Rihanna is definitely giving the people what they want when it comes to foundation, lip color, eye shadow and now brow pencils. However, eyelashes are the new frontier for the Fenty Beauty brand. It’s uncharted waters if you will. However, it is a piece that NEEDS to be apart of the Fenty Beauty rolodex.

We Have a Dream… for Lashes Rihanna!

Okay. So in our perfect beauty realm this is what WE hope to see next. Mascara that gives lashes an intense volume, plus longer length look. A product that will be good for us fake eyelash challenged girls (uhm… hello over here lol).

Moreover, falsies still reign supreme, so Rihanna might as well as drop those too! It would be REALLY awesome if she releases mascara and false eyelashes at the same time. That way no matter which way someone swings that can buy the lash product that suits them the most.

Additionally, she could name her falsies after her songs or image. Like imagine stepping out for a night on the town in some lashes called: Savage, Diamonds (and they come with actual sparkle Ahhhh! lol); Pon de Replay, California King Bed, Badgal, What’s My Name?; Umbrellas, Work, S.O.S. ; Anti, Russian Roulette or Rehab. Can you say fire?

We are just spit balling here, but as you can easily see, eye lash products could be a cool wave for Fenty Beauty to ride. As we await to see if any of the above comes to fruition; we will just happily buy, use and celebrate what’s already here.

The Final Word

Fenty Beauty Brow MVP already looks and feels like a winner. By the way, Brow MVP actually has a WAY LONGER official name. It is called the  Fenty Beauty Brow MVP Ultra Fine Brow Pencil & Styler. Whew! Try saying that five times fast.

Yet, before we go it would be highly rude if we left before discussing price. So let’s! According to luxury retailer Harvey Nichols, Brow MVP will come in at a price tag of £17. In dollars that will be $20. A price that is still quite affordable in terms of makeup.

Nevertheless, are you ready to get your hands on one? Be sure to act fast when it drops on August 23rd at fentybeauty.com, Sephora and Harvey Nichols.

Ask and Tell: Nanushka Mahali Sweater Dress Spotted on Rihanna

Nanushka Mahali Sweater Dress

The Item: Fashion designer, cosmetics company CEO and Billboard Hot 100 artist, Rihanna seen wearing the Nanushka Mahali Sweater Dress! This badgal was just causally out with her mother in Santa Monica, California. The pair were there in order to enjoy dinner together at a restaurant called, Mason.

Mason is sleek, 5 star restaurant that fancies itself right near the ocean; at the edge of Santa Monica. Mason is highly “exclusive.” Serving up high class steaks, freshly made to order salads as well as fine seafood cuisine. According to Open Table it offers “a sophisticated dining experience in a warm-hearted environment.” The experience is nothing short of luxurious. Therefore, it looks like Rihanna and her mother dined in grandeur and style!

You Asked: DETAILS!! 1966 please I need details! I know its early but I just spotted this picture of Rihanna on Instagram. First of all, is it new? I can’t tell because her hair is back to black again in this one and it just looks like maybe from a few years ago? But anyway, I like her dress in this can you find out the designer and let me know? Thanks and love your page! It is one of my favorites ever!

Ask and Tell: Nanushka Mahali Sweater Dress Spotted on Rihanna

Nanushka Mahali Sweater Dress

The Verdict: Hey there! Thank for the message; and hit us up any time, we love to help answer all of your style inquiries. Nevertheless, this is in fact a new sighting of Rihanna. As mentioned on our Instagram page (@1966mag); she is rocking a very chic fall ensemble.

Rihanna’s stylish dress is by couture label Nanushka. It hails from the brands Pre-Fall 2019 collection. If searching for this particular look or style online you will easily find it under a bunch of various keywords. However, the easiest for us was: Nanushka Mahail Sweater Dress.

Shall we talk price? Let’s! After a VERY thorough search and some online window shopping we found that most online retailers are offering the Mahali at a price point around $400. From there the price difference seems to range from $400-$450.

Nevertheless, retailer FARFETCH so far seems to have one of the best prices for this designer look. Currently, FARFETCH is retailing Nanushka’s Mahali Sweater dress for $401. Quite a great price for a highend look if you ask us! So then, if you have ever wanted to dress like Rihanna here is your chance. Plus, you can have Rihanna’s trendy look for all of the fall as well as winter seasons and for less than $500! A STEAL!

Heads Up… Quick Mascara Tip- It’s All In the Tilt Baby!

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

 

Beauty Quickie: Mascara can do AMAZING things to your makeup look; if applied right. Moreover, there are some cool, nifty little tricks as wel as hacks you can do in order to make your lashes and eyes REALLY pop. Today we are going to share one of these beauty gems with you. Read on in order to learn a simple and quick mascara tip that may change your lash enhancing techniques forever.

Heads Up… Quick Mascara Tip- It’s All In the Tilt Baby

With this tip approach things like you would hanging something on the wall. Depending on how you want things to look, YOU HAVE TO position things in the right way. Same thing with mascara everyone. Your head position is major key. Here are 3 ways to do it:

#1 When applying mascara you should aim to keep your head up; but with a slight tilt backwards. Lowering your chin will cause the mascara to go all over your lid and that’s a look all of us wish to avoid.

#2 Once again tilt your head backwards; yet this time widen your eyes. The extra space created will really allow you to push mascara into your lashes and coat them well. Plus, once again the tilt position will cut down on getting mascara everywhere.

#3 Lastly, yet again tilt your head back; but this time look down while you apply a light coat of mascara. Once finished move to the opposite eye and utilize the same technique. Go back in forth between eyes for a few layers until you achieve the desired look. The finish should be a nice natural, yet lengthy and voluminous pair of lashes.

Normani Motivation Dropping 8.16 -Surprises and What to Expect!

When you thought you could not wait ANY longer. Normani finally hits us all with the announcement… that THE Normani Motivation single will be finally dropping this very here month! Fans, colleagues of melanin and fellow lovers of good music please save the date. All the fire and newness shall hit our ears on August 16th!

Yet, that is not all! There is a pretty cool surprise that comes along with this release. AND it all went down behind the scenes… sort of. Read on to find out.

Normani Motivation Dropping 8.16 -Save the Date Y’all!

Why Normani, just why (LOL)? Why has it taken till August for this?! Like many others, we love this girl’s high energy performances and music; but sometimes it feels like we are playing the waiting game. However, she heard her fans pleas; and is putting us out of our music misery this summer and giving us something new to listen to.

Now as we all know the wait most likely is do the fact that Normani has just been seriously busy. This year, the singer basically has been on tour with music bestie, Ariana Grande. This is where it gets interesting!

Did you know that Normani’s new song Motivation has a very high profile co-writer? SAY WHAT?! Yes, word on the not so quiet street is that Motivation is also penned by the queen of the ponytail herself, Ariana Grande!

With Grande giving us plenty of 2019 heat and Thank You Next memes; we can be confident that Motivation is going to be just as major. Music journal, Rolling Stone confirmed the news from the former Fifth Harmony member. Here’s excerpt from that exclusive with Normani talking away about Ariana and her coming aboard Motivation! She says,

“She’s been very supportive of me too. I talk to her about the creative process. ‘I’m like, ‘When did you know your album was done?’ She was just like, ‘Honestly, you’ll know. Nobody will have to tell you. You’ll feel it. Just trust your instinct; trust your gut. And listen to that voice inside you; and it’ll tell you that you’re done. Just take your time, too, and have fun in the process and make sure that it’s something that you love.’

She’s dope. She also has a part in the record that I’m releasing, too. She wrote on it.”

We love this duo, so the fact that they decided to team up on a song; is just everything. From road mates to song mates, it’s awesome to see two awesome artists come together to make magic in the studio.

Normani Motivation

Motivation -The Single

This new release by Normani is BIG. It marks the beginning of an era for the budding solo artist. No not a collab, but just the stylings of Normani. Due to this many fans have been wondering what kind of sound to expect.

Normani wants one and all to know it will not be like what they are used to. For instance, the singer’s smash with Sam Smith, Dancing with a Stranger, had a very “dark”… moody, yet melodic vibe to it. Yet, Motivation will not follow in the same footsteps.

Expect high energy, Normani wants you to get up and dance! In a recent interview Normani reveals,

“I recorded this song a while back. And it’s crazy because, I’ll be on Twitter; and fans will be like, ‘Sis, where’s the new music? Where’s the new music?’ I’m like, ‘Guys, it’s coming,  promise it’s coming.’

I shot the video probably a month ago. It’s going to be worth the wait… It’s an upbeat [song]. It [is] a feel good song record. I think that everybody will really love it. It was the first opportunity that I had to have fun.

I think that people have been waiting for me to have fun and I’ve had so many records like ‘Waves’ and ‘Love Lies’ and Sam Smith’s ‘Dancing With a Stranger;’ which are a little bit more R&B smooth sailing.”

Our Take on Motivation

Smart move young lady. If Normani was just another studio slash ballad singer; then fine, a slower chrooner song would of been lit. HOWEVER, that is not the case here. Normani is 23. She is a 23 year old performer; scratch that, she is an entertainer honey!

Heck, for some time now Normani has even been compared to the queen herself, Beyoncé. A comparison that usually spells death to the career of any female attempting to make the claim. Nevertheless, Normani bypasses all beyhive hate and is continuously gaining more fans and respect.

With that being said, a fast paced song is totally the way to go here. Since people like to move, people like shake; they like to get there like the sidewalk is a club!

Furthermore, this will also highlight Normani’s range. Yes, she can bring tears to our eyes with her hauntingly beautiful vocals on a R&B track. But she can also make us dip in the knees and shake what our mamas may or may not have blessed us with (lol).

We love that Normani is deciding to show the world that she is the next big thing. She can sing. She can dance. Plus, she can put together an album that excites the masses. Something that seems to really be missing in the industry as of late.

Winning and Moving On Up

New song, new video, who dis? While the countdown may be on for Motivation. That does not mean that Normani still is not out here making waves. The girl is steadily collecting major hardware!

All of this new music news comes on the heels of the 2019 Teen Choice Awards. Normani won big taking home 2 awards. What did she win for? Normani won under the categories of: Choice R&B Hip/Hop Artist as well as Choice Pop Song.

The girl is simply on fire this year and we can’t wait to see what else she has up her sleeves. Congrats on the awards and the new single Normani!
