BN Beauty & Stella’s Addiction: Get Rihanna’s Sultry CFDA Fashion Awards Makeup Look
It’s Stella’s Addiction and she is back with another Get This Look feature.
The wave of Rihanna‘s very daring CFDA Fashion Awards outfit may have died down, but its ripple effect is very much still in the spotlight with the restriction of her Rogue by Rihanna posters in the UK, being linked to her risque appearance.
For her Get This Look feature, we are looking to the ‘Princess of Pop’ for inspiration. Today, Stella is going to show you how you can get something out of Rihanna’s outfit – her sultry makeup look. Check it out!

While the world was stuck on her controversial dress I could not take my eyes off her face. Her makeup was done by Mylah Morales using mostly MAC cosmetics.
Here I’ve recreated her ash smokey eye. I think this look will be great for a night out which is exactly where my client Jessica was headed when I did this for her.
