Rihanna is having quite the week, and deservedly so!
The Bad Gal is expecting her first child with A$AP Rocky, an announcement that sent the world wide web into a delighted frenzy. Now, the Barbadian National Hero has revealed another (albeit less monumental) development: a new line of lipsticks under her makeup imprint, Fenty Beauty.
Fenty Icon (presumably named after Rih) is a semi-matte, semi-glossy lipstick that boasts the artist’s favorite vanilla-peach scent. Available in 10 shades, the lipstick is packaged in a refillable tube, a handy feature for those who burn through makeup.

The crown jewel of the release, slated to drop on February 4, is a blue-red shade dubbed The MVP, a universally flattering crimson that took nearly a year of testing to get just right.
Other shade options include Scholar Sista (a rosy nude), Grill Mast’r (brick red), She a CEO (mauve-brown), and Board Memb’r (burgundy red).
Valued at $2.8 billion, Fenty Beauty typically hits it out of the park when it comes to new products — prime examples include the brand’s fan favorite Stunna Lip Paint and Pro Filt’r foundation, one of the first liquid foundations offered in a truly inclusive range of shades.

Already, star’s announcement of the lipstick has garnered millions of views and congratulations aplenty — as well as a slew of fans pointing out that Rih, always the boss, posted about her new business venture before her future child (granted, a man probably wouldn’t receive the same kind of scrutiny).
Nothing but respect for the Bad Gal, her baby, and her new lipstick. Keep doing you, Rih!
