Beauty is a territory that every one likes to explore in their way. When talking about this sensitive topic – individuality kicks in as soon as you open your mouth to converse.

The craze for following somebody popular has been seen from generations – people love to idealise other beings. But the craze for superstars is nothing compared to the people in Gen-Z. Maybe, because of ravaging social media platforms but they idealise quick.
Just like this, in 2017 – another cosmetic and perfume brand was launched by yet another Gen-Z pop star; Rihanna. Probably one of the most popular R&B singers of this generation - Robyn Rihanna Fenty is not only famous for her songs but also for her love for beauty.
Since the release, Fenty has been working on one motto “Promise of inclusion for all women”. It claims to be for all skin types. For this time, we have chosen Fenty Beauty by Rihanna’s Toast’d Swirl Bronze Shimmer Powder.

This highlighter has been getting all the hype from social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram, where influencers are going haywire for this. It comes with a powder-pressed formula and gives a radiant finish. Talking about options – it comes in 2 shades namely Chocolate Swiller & Pecan Swiller.
Coming to whether it takes the expectation bar as high as everyone thinks it to be –straight up, no. The problem is not with the blended tone or the texture – but many of its users faced the problem where it started breaking into pieces. The claims of integrating “Powder pressed formula” just goes into the vein when we see incidents like these.
It might be due to the powder not being pressed hard enough or we can blame the buttery finish that it has got. Kudos to Fenty for providing a handy mirror but what’s the use when the powder will stick on it and break no matter how hard you try?
