Rihanna-Inspired “Work” Makeup Tutorial

guys after so so so many requests I'm finally here to do the Rihanna work inspired makeup tutorial it was hard to kind of pin down what she was wearing because she was either in the shade or humping someone's leg so I decided instead of going like literal recreation to give it a little bit more of a dramatic spin I made my eyeliner a little bit more seductive and mysterious and intense so besides from the eyeliner I think this is pretty close to what Rihanna was wearing green lips cream lips people I had so much fun doing this look for you and if you want to know how to get it then please keep on watching all right the first thing we're going to do is go in with the Kiehl's ultra facial moisturizer because my skin still feels very dry so we need all the moisture we can get for foundation today I'm going to try something new this is by Milani and this is their concealed and perfect two-in-one foundation and concealer we all know that doesn't work the two-in-one foundation and concealer foundation in number one creamy vanilla and I'm gonna try it out it's my first time trying it and I cannot wait to see oh that it has the pump and I'm gonna apply it using my Beauty Blender Oh Dan you got coverage baby oh wow oh yeah I was not expecting it okay so maybe don't need concealer with this oh my god oh my god yes Milani okay so far very good for concealer today I'll be using the Make Up For Ever Ultra HD concealer and this is in the color white when t one okay now that you look like you belong to an art museum it's time to blend it all in and I'm going to bake using the bed night luxury powder in cameo okay so that is the exact same color as my skin tone so I'm going to go back in using the NARS soft loose velvet powder in snow to lighten it a little bit already priming my eyelids using my Mac soft ochre Paint Pot and my Sigma 3d HD precision brush now I'm going to go into this bell for your eye shadow palette and taking this light matte color right here and with my new favorite tweezer men blender brush I'm just going to set that from crease to brow bone area and why I love this brush so much is because it's big soft and just it takes up a really wide range of eye space and it just it's just it's just what you need in life as my transition shade and going back into that Belfiore shadow palette and taking this color right here and for this I'm using a Mac 224 and also blending it out on the outer edges right here just whisking it up and out to get a nice elongated eye shape you can always go back in with that tweezerman brush and a little bit of that skin tone eyeshadow and blend the edges to make them super super soft and blown out from the same palette and taking this dark chocolate brown shadow and with my Cosette s 185 I'm just defining the outer V so I'm starting off by placing the most color on the lid on the outer corners of the lid and then I want to work my way up into the crease and start softly blending it in there and whisk it out you just want to keep doing this until you feel like you have reached the darkness that you like and the blend that you like for the lower lash line we're going to go into that same dark brown color and the tweezer men line glider brush and I'm just really going to darken and smoke out the lower lash line with this I really love this brush because you have such precise color application yet you still have the power to blend it out with this brush I mean look how to find and precise that lower lash line is just with this brush with the color pop gel liner in swerve I'm going to make my waterline black and then going back in with a dark chocolate color to smudge the black out and make it even more smoky now it's time for the amazing glitter this is Mac's glitter in gold and as my mixing medium I'll be using the lit clearly liquid glitter base and applying it with my little brush the tweezerman shader brush so first I'll lay down the mixing medium with the same brush and then press the glitter over top you for that gorgeous eyeliner first going to start off using the Tarte so fine micro liner on the inner corners then making the outline of my wing using the tattoo liner by Kat Von D and filling it all in using my Sigma line ace in legend all right not to finish off the eyes my eyelashes need a good curl and today I'll be using this rose gold tweezerman eyelash curler and this one especially is for round your eyes and it's rose gold so all aboard on the curling train and we're off okay perfect now some waterproof mascara to hold that curl her lashes up using the House of lashes temptress whispies alright time for the cheeks now this was kinda hard to find out what Rihanna was wearing because she pretty much was in the dark this entire video so just like the eyes I kind of made my own spin of it I'm also going to do that with the cheeks so first I'm going to contour using my medium sculpting powder by Kevin tequan and my favorite contouring brush the morphe m5 30 for some additional warmth v2 faced milk chocolate bronzer in light/medium and my Cosette number one brush for blush I'm going to use the tiniest bit of Mac's modern Mandarin and because it's so bright you really want to use a light hand and the first we'll be using is my Cosette number two for a highlighter I'm going to use a combo of Becca moonstone and Anasazi Berkeley Hills a sunburst and together this is just one big lusciousness and we're gonna go for that ultimate glow I see a lot of gurus on YouTube also highlight like above the art of their brows and just the whole shebang gonna do the whole ship I'm gonna get a different brush than I normally would today I'm going to use the motives fan brush looks like this oh yeah so this is the motives fan brush and it is a little bit more dense and thick than my morphe one so I just want to try it out oh boy haha it packs on the glow ho ho hmm oh my god China can see this and I live in Holland okay I see how can you not see this I see you holy biscuits I'm gonna highlight the tip of my nose and my cupids bow just set everything and to get rid of all the powder I'm going to step my face using my makeup forever mist and fix her lips of course we're gonna go for those green iconic lips that Rihanna were in her music video and this is my color drain and this is in the color IV and if you know me my dog is called ivy so when I saw that this lipstick was called Ivy I was like meant to be meant to be see it noble lip liner know anything just coloured raine ivy and I do have a discount for you if you want to save some dollars for a color train use code Nicki one and you'll get some dollars off alright ready for the battle I've never worn green lips and I'm kind of nervous hmmm yes why is this still oddly satisfying and
