  • Extensive, inclusive shade range
  • Highly pigmented color payoff
  • Smooth, blendable face formulas
  • Luxurious, distinctive packaging
  • Drying matte base formulas
  • Stiff, chalky match stix texture
  • Glittery, chunky highlighters
  • Leaky, bulky lip gloss packaging

Fenty Beauty earns strong reviews for performance and unmatched shade inclusivity across foundations, concealers, and lip products, with standouts like Gloss Bomb, Stunna Lip Paint, Killawatt Highlighter, Eaze Drop, and Sun Stalk’r Bronzer delivering smooth wear, rich pigment, and easy blendability. Reviews also flag drawbacks: some formulas run too matte or drying for dry/sensitive skin, Match Stix can feel stiff or hard to blend, certain highlighters skew glittery, fragrances run strong, and occasional packaging quirks (leaking gloss, bulky tubes) frustrate; overall, it’s a high-performing, industry-shaping brand with selective misses.

  • For years I've heard about Fenty beauty but never got my hands on the products and I finally decided to give it a try. I decided to start with this invisimatte instant setting and blotting powder. I couldn't believe how I saw my skin improve within seconds with just a touch of this powder. My skin doesn't feel like it has anything on it but it works so well. It keeps my make up on all day, my skin looks flawless and blurs those pores! It helped hide those mini wrinkles and dark spots of imperfection. Hitting 40 next year and a little sensitive on how my skin looks. After years of modeling I imagined my skin would be flawless but after 4 kids I got to give myself some grace and work hard to improve my skin. This helps blemish it just the right amount without feeling there's cakey make up on my skin. I am a minimalist when it comes to my skin as I prefer minimal but with style and class. The soft sponge makes it gentle and easy to apply on. Doesn't take much effort. Couldn't be happier with this extra step to my make up routine!

  • I love the consistency of the concealer, it feels smooth and moisturizing on my skin and it easily blendable. the applicator is also easy to use. The formula can get stuck in creases but if you blend it and apply a setting powder it looks much smoother .

  • This new Fenty Cheeks Powdered Blush is BEAUTIFUL! There’s nothing better than a blush that will last all day long through water, sweat and all! As you can see in my pictures the left is Before and the right is After a full 12 hour day of wear. It still looks great and hasn’t budged. I love the cool pink color that goes really well well with my fair skin tone. $28 is very reasonable for such a high preforming blush (that you only need 1 swipe of!) This will last you a long time!

  • I bought a few MVP reds hoping to find the right red blue for me, as a redhead. I don’t want to look like a clown. Be very careful with application but some can pull this off. Unfortunately only the MVP lipliner might work out.

  • Love love the glow of this skin stick. Goes on so easily and shines bright in the sun. Obviously love fenty for the inclusivity. As you can see I bring this everywhere with me. Hope that they make a smaller travel size !

  • Applies like a gloss but dries down to a natural tint that actually stays put. Super lightweight and fades nicely without getting patchy. Perfect for when I want color without the upkeep. It also lasts for most of the day.

  • I received this in my ipsy bag. I like the smell of it. It has a thicker consistency and lathers into soapy bubbles quickly so you don't need a lot of it. It feels very good on my face, the soapy bubbles feels like my face is getting clean. I haven't noticed any difference between this cleanser and the one I was using before that. If I could see any benefit to my skin at all I would definitely buy this.

  • I tried the setting powder in the shade honey. It does set the makeup and it has a smooth texture, but I find it to be a lot heavier than other powders I've used. I don't like to use it under my eyes for this reason, but it works for my forehead and chin. Also, this powder is extremely pigmented. I also have a Match Stix Highlighter in the shade rum. This is my all-time favorite highlighter because it's glowy without a ton of glitter. If you prefer a glossy shine over a glittery one, you'll love it!

  • would purchase again: - fenty matchsticks (4/5): glide well, if it's very cold you can warm up the product between your fingers for seamless application the shade range is incredible as always, which is a great indicator for how inclusive and positive of a brand it is!

  • I love Rihanna and I love everything that I've purchased from Fenty. I specifically regularly use the foundation and the concealer. I also love the purple cream blush and the lip products as well. I occasionally will use the diamond bomb rosé rave on my chest and arms if I'm wearing sleveless shirts!

  • I fell in love with almost the entire set instantly. I love the consistency of the cleanser and how it cleans off my makeup and daily dirt. The fat water is very hydrating and leaves my skin feeling supple and brand new. I’m not too much into the sunscreen. It’s great but it’s not a favorite, it leaves my face extremely greasy and shiny. I would apply full coverage to my face and leave the house like a shiny nickel. I love the smell of the products but I would love to try the fragrance free option because it’s safer for my sensitive skin. This line did help with my acne and scaring a great deal, it’s my extreme measure kit as of now. I definitely keep the set when needed.

  • Love the variety of the brand and inclusiveness! The hydrate visor sunscreen pump is really easy and convenient to use. The spf itself absorbs nicely but can be a tad on the greasy side. So good for those with combo skin or dry. Avoid if your oily. It's got a subtle scent I'm not a fan of but isn't overwhelming luckily. Won't give you the whitecast that other sunscreens do.

  • Rihanna knows what she’s doing! I love Fenty lip products. My current favorite is her Poutsicle lip stain in Mai Tai. It leaves a strong stain and is so lightweight and easily layerable! Other products I’ve enjoyed include her cream blush (so blendable and pigmented), Flyliner liquid eyeliner (suuuuper black and glides on), and her Kilawatt highlighters (buttery and glory)!

  • The lip products offered by Fenty are all incredible. I’ve tried the glosses and the lipsticks and the formulations of both is top tier- it’s creamy, long lasting, smooth, and non-sticky. On top of that the packaging is super practical and doesn’t roll off.

  • The formulations are the creamiest and the packaging is just there to compliment it. I’ve had zero issues with the products I’ve purchased, and it delivers what it promises. The wear on the lipsticks is long and the shine is orbital.

  • It gives the perfect amount of shine without being over the top, and the hint of shimmer adds a subtle plumping effect that makes lips look fuller. It’s a high-quality gloss that feels luxe, looks gorgeous, and works across occasions.

  • This brand made a spotlight for their amazing shade range of foundation-something seriously lacking in the beauty space. I’ve tried many products from fenty and loved them, especially their overnight lip mask. I want to try the body products next!

  • The Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb is as iconic as gloss gets. It delivers that juicy, mirror-like shine without the stickiness—smooth, plush, and universally flattering. The formula is enriched with shea butter, so it feels more like a gloss-balm hybrid that actually nourishes while looking lush. The applicator is oversized and super satisfying, making each swipe feel luxe. The shade range is also worth shouting out: from soft neutrals to rosy pinks and shimmering tones, they elevate any makeup look without overpowering it. Longevity isn’t all-day, but reapplying feels more indulgent than inconvenient.

  • El gloss de Fenty Beauty es súper brillante y no pegajoso. Hidrata los labios mientras les da un acabado jugoso y favorecedor que dura bastante tiempo. Perfecto para usar solo o encima del labial. Love 💕

  • This concealer gives full coverage with a smooth, matte finish that lasts all day. It blends easily and doesn’t crease under the eyes. I love how wide the shade range is—super inclusive and easy to find a match!
