Fenty launched some new beauty products + skincare this summer and there are some solid wins. I have a look with swatches of everything today.
New Complexion Products
There’s a new foundation called the Soft’Lit Naturally Luminous Foundation ($40). I tried three shades and right now 260 or 265 are my best matches. Demo of 260 on the skin shown here. It’s a much better formula than the Pro Filt’r Foundation as it’s easier to blend, doesn’t feel as thick and has a soft luminous satin finish.
Coverage is medium to full. The Foundation Brush 145 ($36) is a game changer for foundation brushes. It has a similar design to my favorite Laura Mercier foundation brush but the Fenty is a bit smaller and more dense. Both brushes offer streak-free smooth coverage with an ultra soft feel to them.
I’m new to Fenty Skin. The Hydra Vizor Moisturizer SPF 30 ($36-$40) is a really nice moisturizer that preps the skin while protecting with SPF 30. They just launched Tinted Versions which I will probably try to track it down in store to test. It’s smooth in texture and blends easily. There’s no white cast with this and no pilling. Active ingredients are Avobenzone 3%, Homosalate 9%, Octisalate 4.5%. I like it but I don’t know that I would call it a must-have.
New Blushes
I really love what Fenty has been launching for cheeks lately. The textures are ultra smooth and I love that the shimmers aren’t too shimmery or frosty. There are three new Hot Cheeks Velour Blushlighter ($26). These are shimmery blushes with an ultra silky smooth soft texture and beautiful glow.
The colors do remind me of the NARS Orgasm lineup but better. The shimmer is more refined in the Fenty blushes and the texture is a lot softer/silkier.
- Fresh Peach is a golden shimmer with a pink base, this shows up more golden on my skin, more like a highlighter
- Juicy Peach is a soft luminous golden peach with a pink orange pearly shimmer
- Bak’d Peach is deeper orange peach shimmer, but isn’t too orangey
Out of the three Fresh Peach is the most shimmery. The other two are more luminous on the skin. These Hot Cheeks Velour Blushlighters have a similar silky feel to the Demi’Glow Light-Diffusing Highlighters which I’ve been eyeing but have not tried yet. I keep swatching them every time I’m in store and need to pick one up.
Solid A+ for each of the new Fenty Hot Cheeks Velour Blushlighters. I hope they consider making this formula permanent.
New Lip Shades
Fenty launched a new lip formula called the new Gloss Bomb Lip Oils ($26) and as the ultimate Gloss Bomb addict I am thrilled. They have a similar feel to the Gloss Bomb (almost identical) but the Lip Oils are a little smoother, a little more sheer and have a vanilla cake like scent to them. They have a cute Coral Gloss Bomb Oil Keychain Case this season to hold your gloss on-the-go.
The shimmer is superfine in $uperfine Suga (white gold) and Fro$ted Bunz (iridescent copper gold) and both of these have sheer pigment. Coppa Cookie (metallic copper) on the other hand has more opaque pigment and a metallic finish making it stand out the most out of the three.
It’s hard to pick a favorite but I like Fro$ted Bunz the most. I would wear this color head to toe if I could.

New Liners
The one miss for me is the Glitty Lid Shimmer Liquid Liner ($24). The colors are just so stunning I wish they made these in an eye shadow form instead of liner. The miss for me is the liner just never really dries or sets. On me it stays kinda creamy. I tried blending it as an all over eyeshadow too but it doesn’t really blend well with fingers. Granted it does not move on the eyes as a liner. I think I’m just not used to liquid liners that have a glossy finish.
Overall some beautiful launches. Color theme screams summer. I love the new lip oils and blushes. I think they’re 100% worth adding to your summer beauty routine. Available now at Sephora and Fenty Beauty.
