Rihanna's geniale mascara hack gebruikt twee tinten; en ja, één is Fenty's nieuwe bruine kleur
Rihanna just dropped a lash tip that’s so effortlessly genius, we’re officially ditching our basic mascara routine. In true Rih fashion, it involves layering two different mascara shades—because why settle for one when you can double the drama?
And oh, did we mention this trick stars Fenty Beauty’s brand-new brown mascara? Yep, Queen Rih just launched Hella Thicc Volumizing Mascara in a rich soft brown called Let’z Be Blunt, and your lashes are about to have a main character moment.
Rih’s Lash Routine = Instant Eye Lift
So here’s the hack: Rihanna swipes black mascara on her top lashes (Fenty’s OG shade, Cuz I’m Black) and then uses the brown shade on her bottom lashes. The result? A defined, soft-focus gaze that still hits with drama but without going full glam. Basically, it’s the eye makeup version of “I woke up like this,” but like… elevated.
It’s perfect for day-to-night vibes. That brown on the lower lashes adds dimension and subtle contrast, which, according to RiRi, makes your eyes pop without looking too intense. Um, obsessed.
But Wait—There’s a Primer Too?!
Not Rihanna dropping a primer with this launch, too. Meet the new Hella Extra Mascara-Boosting Lash Primer, and yes, it’s just as extra as it sounds.
“I wanted to make a lash primer that not only made your mascara wear better and bigger but also nourished your lashes to keep them healthy and strong at the same time,” Rihanna says in her interview with Harper’s Bazaar.
The brand recommends doing one swipe of the primer, waiting 5-10 seconds (just enough time to hype yourself in the mirror), and then layering on your mascara for fuller, longer, and bolder lashes. Bonus: it nourishes your lashes while making your mascara last longer. Win-win.
When + Where Can You Get It?
Circle April 11 on your calendar (or set a phone reminder if you’re that girl). That’s when both the brown Let’z Be Blunt mascara en the lash primer officially hit the shelves at FentyBeauty.com, Ulta.com, and Ulta Beauty stores nationwide.
So yes, this hack is Rihanna-approved. It’s giving elevated. It’s giving subtle slay. It’s giving, “I just ran into my ex but didn’t try too hard and still looked amazing.”
