Rihanna is a QUEEN of this generation. Besides being super talented and naturally beautiful, she's known for her impeccable style and makeup. Here I recreate one of her most iconic looks- winged liner and classic red lip.

  • How to create a pin-up makeup look. Makeover Monday: Rihanna - Step 1
    Step 1

    Rihanna always seems to have flawless skin. While I don't (and neither does she, most likely), we can easily fake that. I started by using one of my new favorite foundations, L'Oreal's Lumi Cushion. I applied the color all over my face and neck. Next, I used Rimmel's Stay Matte powder to set it. I used the bronzer and blush from E.L.F's Bronzer & Blush duo in "St. Lucia" next. Then, and here's my favorite part, I used E.L.F's Baked Highlighter in "Blush Gems" to highlight my face. I went very heavy on the highlighter, which resulted in that beautiful glow Rihanna always seems to have.

    I LOVE my Tarte Rainforest After Dark palette, and found that is was perfect in re-creating Rihanna's classic look. After using the dark brown color from here to fill in my brows, I applied Lime Crime's Eyeshadow Helper to prime my lids. I used the bronzer from this palette for my crease, to give it a bit of an orange glow. I also added some of the bronzer from the Urban Decay Flushed Palette to give some more orange. Then, I used the highlighter here on my lids. I made wings using NYC's Liquid Liner then added some of Maybelline's Pumped Up mascara on my bottom lashes.

    To give me that celebrity look, I added some Ardell lashes using DUO tinted lash glue. I actually used a natural looking pair for this look, which is not pictured here.

    My finishing touch were the lips. I used moisturized using Burt's Bees Mango Lip Balm, then applied NYX's Lip Primer. I then topped it off with a healthy helping of NARS's Cruella Velvet Matte Lip Pencil.

    Here is the completed look! I actually really really like it- I'll definitely be pulling this look out again.
