Makeup artist Naïma Bremer tells John Lewis about her Fenty favourites…

Legendary. Revolutionary. Inclusive. These are just some of the ways that Fenty Beauty has been described since it launched in 2017, stunning the industry with a 40-shade foundation range (since expanded to 50) that embodied its tagline: ‘Beauty for All’.

And now Rihanna’s brilliant brand has ‘finally’ (her words) arrived at John Lewis. If you already have Fenty favourites, don’t wait to make them yours. If you’re less familiar with the brand, allow Naïma Bremer, Global Artistry Ambassador for Fenty Beauty, to share her top five must-haves.

‘To me, Fenty Beauty is all about being authentically and unapologetically yourself,’ she tells us. ‘I’m honoured to represent a brand that not only sets trends but truly redefines what beauty can be – bold, inclusive and fashion-forward. Because Fenty Beauty doesn’t just talk about inclusivity, it is inclusive. That matters deeply to me, both personally and professionally.’

Born and raised in Curaçao, an island country in the Caribbean sea (not a million miles away from Barbadian superstar Rihanna), Naïma is a self-confessed ‘island girl’ who values self-expression. This makes her the perfect fit to represent Fenty Beauty, a brand built around inclusivity – and that’s also gender-inclusive, clean and cruelty-free. Read on for her pearls of wisdom…

Fenty Skin Dew N Plump Hydrating Nectar Glow Serum

‘I love me some glowy skin, and the Dew N Plump Hydrating Nectar Glow Serum definitely delivers. It plumps, hydrates and boosts the skin’s moisture barrier, plus it works really well under makeup. It leaves skin looking so juicy and with a radiant finish. Promise.’

Fenty Skin Hydra Vizor Invisible Moisturizer SPF 30

‘I can only describe this two-in-one sunscreen and moisturiser as glass skin in a bottle. As a coloured woman I need my SPF protection to always melt into my skin, and not make me look ashy or chalky. The Hydra Vizor instantly absorbs and blends in so easily. It’s so lightweight and really gives that glass-skin finish I love.’

Fenty Beauty Trace’d Out Lip Liner

‘I am a true Caribbean girl, so even when I don’t wear full makeup, I always wear a good lip combo. That starts with a Fenty Lip liner. These pencils are so long-wearing and easy to apply. And they not only line, but also act as a creamy lip primer to make my lip last longer. Love.’

Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminiser

‘I am a lip gloss girl through and through; I go through them like water. This Fenty Lip gloss really does feel as good as it looks – I’m obsessed with the shine and the big fluffy applicator. Plus, it’s not sticky and has a nourishing shea butter formula. It’s the finishing touch to every Fenty face I do.’

Fenty Beauty Soft’lit Naturally Luminous Longwear Foundation

‘Growing up, I could never find my exact foundation shade; everything was either too ashy or too orange. Now, as a makeup artist who works across every skin tone, I need a brand that reflects real people, my clientele and where I come from. Fenty’s newest foundation is long-wearing, hydrating and gives you luminous, bright skin. Plus it’s waterproof and resists sweat. A game-changer.’
