While the Web continues to be buzzing in regards to the surprise guest Rihanna revealed during her history-making Super Bowl LVII halftime show, there’s one other iconic moment that may proceed to live rent-free in my mind: The star’s seamless, mid-performance complexion touch-up.
In the event you’re wondering which compact Rihanna flawlessly touched up with mid-song, it was none apart from the Invisimatte Easy Setting + Blotting Powder. Makeup artists and Rihanna’s army of fans turned the moment right into a meme almost immediately—all but guaranteeing the viral makeup compact sells out.

Fenty Beauty global makeup artist Priscilla Ono thinly applied layers of the brand’s Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation and Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Powder Foundation, then added a dab of setting powder to for a shine-free complexion. Ono opted for a soft matte finish for the singer’s complexion that, “still looked like skin but was performance-proof too,” she said in a press release.

And to go with Rihanna’s custom Loewe corset and jumpsuit, Alaïa coat, and fiery MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon sneakers, Ono reached for the brand’s Fenty Icon Velvet Liquid Lipstick within the shade The MVP. “That red stage called for the last word Rihanna red lip,” Ono adds. “We wanted her beauty look to rejoice this moment and be a real reflection of her timeless beauty. And to me, there’s nothing more iconic to Rihanna than her soft matte skin and a daring red lip.”

As for her nails, celebrity artist Kimmie Kyees capped off Rihanna’s monochromatic color moment with a fire-engine red manicure, using CND’s Shellac Polish in Devil Red. “We wanted the nails to pop so we went with CND’s Devil Red, which is the proper true red that basically complements her tone,” Kyees explains. “The longer length square shaped suggestions also beautifully lengthened her hands while still staying true to the classic look.”
