In the span of one week, Rihanna presented her first fashion collection at London Fashion Week, celebrated her birthday (she's 25!) and now, signed on with MAC for a major, multi-year beauty contract.
WWD reports the first item that will be introduced is RiRi Woo, a red lipstick inspired by her favorite MAC shade, Ruby Woo. It will come out as she kicks of her concert tour on May 4 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
“When you think of makeup, the brand that pops into your mind — for something legit — is MAC,” Rihanna told WWD. “Whatever color you want, it’s like ‘Let’s go to MAC.’ I’ve been using MAC on tour for such a long time it was a natural fit for me. I have always loved makeup, and I always said that if I do it, I want to do it with a credible brand.”
This is the first time MAC has worked with a celeb for more than one project. With MAC, Rihanna is creating four color collections. As her makeup rolls out, you will see lipsticks, blushes, makeup bags, eyeshadows and false lashes (she likes to wear two pairs at a time.)
