Hey guys, it's Mi-Anne, and
this is Beauty With Mi.
Last week I got my face touched by
the same woman that touches
Rihanna's face.
The woman in question is Priscilla Ono.
She is the global makeup artist for
Fenty Beauty and a go-to makeup artist
for Rihanna, including her iconic
Met Gala look.
And she was gracious enough to show
me how to get a Rihanna lewk from
step 1 to step...
50?
I don't know; there were a lot of steps.
And then I tried it myself to varying
degrees of success.
So, without further ado, let's go and
meet Priscilla, but before we do,
please make sure you are subscribed
down below, little red button.
And while you're at it,
please add me on Instagram
Hey guys, I'm here with Priscilla Ono,
and she is going to bless my face today.
I am so excited.
Super excited!
I know, I have a look planned.
It's actually
the look that I did for Ri for our
Singapore launch event.
Wait, that's awesome!
My family's from Singapore.
Really?!
Yeah!
Oh my god!
I'm going to start off by using Pro Filt'r
to really ensure that your makeup
won't get oily or greasy throughout
the day.
Our Pro Filt'r foundation and
this is in the color 240.
I'm going to shake this a bit, which is
really important.
I think a lot of
people forget.
Yeah, it separates a little bit.
A little bit.
And then I'm going to put some
on my palette.
Rihanna's obviously very good at
makeup as well.
Yes, super good.
What is it like having her in the chair?
When I first started doing her makeup,
it was a little bit nerve-wracking just
because she's so good herself.
But then, after a while, it just made me
feel even more comfortable because
I feel like she gets it.
How did you first meet her?
I met her...
I wanna say it was like,
seven or eight years ago on the set
of one of her music videos, “S&M.”
I was actually doing makeup for
the background, and when she got on set,
I feel like as soon as I looked at her,
she kind of looked at me, and like,
she came up to me and she started
complimenting me right away.
Like, "I love your hair, it's so cool!
I love your skin, you have great skin!"
Like, she was being so like,
down-to-earth and cool, like a girlfriend.
The director came up to me and was like,
"Hey, Rihanna wants to know if you want
to be in her music video,"
and I was like, "Yeah!"
I have like, white, spiky hair and like,
I'm wearing like, yellow lipstick,
it's really cool.
Did you do your own makeup?
Yeah, I did my own makeup,
it was really cool.
A little bit of Suede Match Stix
and a little bit of Amber.
Amber's this really cool,
unique like, cool-tone.
I like to mix a little bit of the
cool-tone with the warm tone.
I like to start kind of like, where your
cheekbone indents, maybe like,
a little bit above.
And then I like to just kind of run it
along the perimeter of your face.
Our new Pro Filt'r Concealerrrrr.
I’m so excited to try these.
Right?
If you’re 240 in foundation,
your perfect match would be 240
in concealer.
Oh, I love that they’re gonna match.
So, you’re 240 in foundation,
but I’m gonna use 235.
I’m using the new concealer brush,
which is really cute.
I like to kind of like slope it down on
the nose.
Maybe do a little bit
on the chin.
A little on the forehead.
Just to kind of like give your face
a little bit of light.
And then I’ll go back in with a
precision sponge, and kind of
blend that in.
So, fifty shades is a ton.
Right?
Kind of unprecedented in terms of
the concealer category.
Right.
Why fifty?
Well, we had to have a shade for
every foundation, and we have
fifty foundations.
Everyone deserves their perfect
concealer shade.
So, it was only right.
We’re gonna give yourself a little
bit of a glow.
What is that?
This is Rum Match Stix, and I like
putting it on the tops of the cheekbones.
Okay. So, now I’m gonna do
a little bit of blush.
I’m gonna take some Yacht Life.
Amazing names.
Right?
They all have amazing names.
Rihanna chooses all the names.
I’m gonna take our neeewwwww…..
What is this?!
Loose powder!!
We did eight tones so you kind of have
that like perfect translucent color for
your shade range.
And you can use this all over the face too.
So, now I’m gonna give your eye a little
bit of Cumin Get It, which is this really
gorgeous warm brown, and I’m just
warming up the crease with it.
This is the exact color that I used for
the Singapore launch event with Rihanna.
And then I’m gonna go into the palette
and pick up on Mirage, which is this
really pretty, like skin tone-like pink.
And I’m just gonna apply this
on your eyelid.
The brush is wet, so it kind of gives
a little sheen to the eye.
And I like to press.
I feel like the
color just always comes out
a little bit better.
That looks really pretty!
You know what, I’m gonna take whatever is
leftover on my brush, and I’m gonna
kinda just coat it on your brow bone too.
And I’m gonna go in now with Hu$tla Baby.
Ri and I love using this on the brow bone.
And this as like a pop of highlight.
Eyeliner time.
Eyeliner.
I know.
We love us a flyliner.
And I kinda like to do my wing depending
on the eye shape when the eye is open
because that’s what it’s gonna look like.
So now close your eyes.
And now I’m gonna
go in and I’m gonna fill it in.
Lash timmmeeee!!
These are kind of drama,
but I’m kinda into it.
Oh no, honey!
These are bomb.
I’m excited.
So good.
Girl, you stunning.
I’m gonna take some Stunna Lip Paint.
I like to do like a heart-shape at
the top of the lip.
And then personally I like to go back
in with the precise lip brush, and do
the inner corners of the mouth.
Stunning!
Like so good.
Okay, I’m gonna do a little bit of that
Cumin Get It underneath the
bottom lash line.
Just gonna do a little liner right up
the lash line.
You want some extra glow.
So, let’s go in with some Girl Next Door,
which is gorgeous.
I’m gonna mix the two together.
Take the cheek hugging brush, and
I’m just gonna coat it right on top of
your cheekbone.
Take it up to your temple area.
Ready?
Are we ready!?
I love the eyelashes!
Aren’t they gorgeous?
They look so cool.
Oh, I forgot that I wanted to do
something on you.
Your beauty mark, I’m gonna enhance it.
I’m gonna use a little bit of Hennessy
and a little bit of Cumin Get It.
My skin looks so good.
Right?
Your skin looks incredible.
Thank you so much!
I’m excited to try this on my own.
I can’t wait to see it.
I wanna see
how you recreate it.
Soooooo, I tried it, and it wasn’t
too bad actually.
Priscilla gave me a lot of tips on
how to apply everything.
The fun and new launch of the day
was definitely the concealers
in fifty shades, so incredible.
They went on really well.
I think that overall, my base lasted
super well throughout the day.
I actually didn’t have to oil blot at all.
So, that’s a plus.
She went haAaAam on the bronzer.
Way more than I normally wear.
So, I really like, piled that on when
I did it myself.
I think that what Priscilla did,
really did show me that I can
probably afford to do a little bit more.
The eyeshadow look actually was
pretty simple.
I really liked it.
Definitely a look I would wear on
the day-to-day.
The only thing that I think was pretty
difficult were the false eyelashes.
False eyelashes are really annoying.
They are not hard to put on per se.
I just felt them constantly on my
eyelids, like no matter where I looked,
I could see the lashes, like,
in my periphery.
Like, there was just no escaping them.
But they did look really good in photos.
Soooooo……
Maybe I’d wear them again.
We’ll see.
Jury is still out on that one.
And then we moved onto lips.
This was actually the first time that
I’d ever tried the Stunna Lip Paint.
I personally think it did look good on me.
If I do say so myself.
And then on top of that we went in with
a little bit more highlighter,
which I love.
And that was pretty much it.
It was pretty straightforward look,
but it was really fun to see Priscilla’s
approach to makeup.
And also learn a bit more about how
Rihanna and Priscilla collaborate.
I hope that you guys enjoyed this video.
