As we all know (well, I'm hoping so anyway), Rihanna – aka, the superstar singer, beauty mogul and industry legend – gave birth to her first child back in May of this year. And ever since, we've been eagerly waiting for a baby reveal... oh, and her red carpet return, too.
Now, as you've probably guessed, today is *the* day folks when we've been granted that one wish. And by 'that' I mean the former of the two. Soz to disappoint but the following will make up for the RiRocky baby shaped hole in our hearts, I promise!
Last night, both Rih and A$AP attended the Marvel Studios "Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever" premiere looking as glam as ever. Taking to the red purple red carpet, the two coordinated outfits, with Rih wearing a sparkly taupe floor-length gown.
As much as we love the outfit, we're really all here for the beauty deets. And more specifically, her stu-nning mermaid waves. Celebrity hairstylist, Yusef Williams, was the genius behind her creamy looking (is that a thing?) curls and have styled them in a deep side part. Adding a little extra 'zhuzh' to the look, Yusef has also added a few braids onto the side of her head. Just effortlessly perfect.
As for the makeup, Riri showed up dripping in Fenty Beauty... I mean, are we surprised? Gotta' rep, after all! Priscilla Ono, the star's makeup artist worked up the magic on her face and luckily for us, the brand shared all the details in the Instagram caption of their post. We've, too, have also got you covered as you can shop the entire look below.
