Rihanna Is Expanding Shade Diversity to Fenty Beauty's First-Ever Bronzer
As a woman of color, the struggle to find a perfect bronzer that actually adds depth to my face (and doesn't just disappear into my caramel colored skin tone) is so, so real. Thankfully, Rihanna understands this struggle and decided to answer our prayers with a new launch: Fenty Beauty's Sun Stalk'r Instant Warmth Bronzer ($30). It's a soft-matte powder bronzer in a whopping eight shades for ultimate versatility across all skin tones.
The launch of the bronzers continues Rihanna's mission of creating makeup that is suitable for everyone, and expands shade inclusivity beyond foundation."Bronzer isn’t one shade fits all! It took @badgalriri over 2 years to develop the perfect bronzer that brings out the right pigments for a natural warmth and glow on all skin tones! #SUNSTALKRBRONZER comes in 8 shades of a smooth soft-matte powder formula that adds instant warmth for the fairest to the deepest," the brand wrote via Instagram.
As usual, the eight shade names are not to be missed: Bajan Gyal (like Riri), Coco Naughty, Caramel Cutie, I$land Ting, Inda Sun, Mocha Mami, Private Island, and Shady Biz. Fenty Beauty will also be releasing two new brushes— the Cheek-Hugging Bronzer Brush ($36) for an all-over glow, and the Sculpting Bronzer Brush ($34) for targeted contour application.
The new products aren't available just yet, but the good news is that Rihanna is giving fans a whole week to collect their coins. The items will officially arrive on April 5 at Sephora, Sephora.com, Sephora in JCPenney and fentybeauty.com—just in time to look like a glowy, bronzed goddess now and all the way through summer.
