Rihanna graces the cover of ‘Vogue China’ ahead of Fenty Beauty expansion

National Hero Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty will be available in China starting in April. The brand is already a billion-dollar business for her – and now she’s expanding its reach to a billion-citizen nation, just a few weeks after launching to another billion population, India.

The mother of two, who was sporting a glamorous coat of make-up with a red lip, was pictured staring into a gold handheld mirror.

In a second black and white image taken close up to Rihanna’s face, her inked hand touched her braided hair as she smouldered for the camera.

It comes just after Rihanna announced last week that her brand Fenty Beauty will now be available in China starting April 1.

It’s a huge business move for the star, with China now the second-largest beauty market in the world behind the US.

Rihanna is already considered America’s youngest self-made female billionaire. Her estimated net worth is around $1.4 billion, which is mainly a result of the success of the cosmetics company.

In the announcement video, the singer looked stunning as she donned a black leather jacket and wore her honey-brown hair loose, cascading over her shoulders.

The beauty guru – who has two young sons sons RZA and Riot – opted for a natural makeup look with the exception a bold red lip that made her full pout pop.

She said, ‘China – I am thrilled to share the great news… on April 1, Fenty Beauty will officially land. China has such a rich culture that has always inspired me and I cannot wait to share Fenty Beauty with all of you, celebrating your unique beauty.

Just last month, Riri took to Instagram to share a snippet of a new short film for FentySkin that features herself and baby daddy rapper A$AP Rocky.

The video radiated a 1950s feel as parts of the clip were in black-and-white and displayed on a moving film reel.

The Barbadian singer looked glamorous as she wore her signature raven hair in a pin-up style which she paired with a diamond choker and a gold watch.

Fans gushed over the pair as one commenter wrote, ‘I have never seen her look at any man the was she looks at Rocky.’

Another said, ‘Dropping everything but music. I’m still going to watch though.’

A$AP Rocky and Rihanna are seen cozying up to each other in the video as he flashes FentySkin products.

Riri and her man were first linked in the early 2010s when he was her opening act on the Diamonds World Tour in 2013.

In 2020, the pair got serious and publicized their relationship as fans via social media. They later welcomed sons RZA, 22 months, and Riot Rose, seven months.

The singer famously dated Chris Brown and Drake before A$AP Rocky.
