Africa, the wait is finally over as Rihanna has announced that she is bringing her famous luxury beauty line, Fenty Beauty and Fenty Skin to Africa. The entire continent is overjoyed.
Riri, who has always been open about ensuring that everyone is included when it comes to her products has made a major move since Africa is the second largest continent in the world.
Breaking the news via social media, Riri revealed that she has been eagerly waiting for the moment and further disclosed that the products will be available in 8 African countries; Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, Botswana, South Africa, Zambia, Namibia and Zimbabwe.
“I’ve been waiting for this moment!” she wrote, captioning a quartet of photos showing what some of the Fenty products look like on her face. “@fentybeauty & @fentyskin are finally dropping in AFRICA!!! Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, Namibia, Nigeria, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe…we comin at ya May 27th and that’s just the beginning!!!”
Rihanna launched Fenty Beauty back in 2017. She changed the beauty game forever as she released forty shades of her famous ‘Prof Filt’r’ foundation that made it possible for people of different skin tones and races to get a shade for them. This made Fenty Beauty one of the first all-inclusive brands.
Fenty Beauty is the line that boosted Rihanna’s path to success and played a huge role in her current billionaire status.
The luxury line will be available in ARC Stores and Edgars in South Africa, Essenza Nigeria in Nigeria, Lintons Beauty in Kenya, Edgars in Namibia, Edgars in Botswana, Essenza Ghana in Ghana, Color Café Zambia in Zambia and Catts in Zimbabwe.
