The 2026 honors span makeup, skin care, and hair care, giving Fenty Beauty, Fenty Skin, and Fenty Hair each a win.

Rihanna can add three more beauty honors to the Fenty trophy case.

The superstar’s growing beauty empire earned three wins in Allure’s 2026 Best of Beauty Awards, with products from Fenty Beauty, Fenty Skin, and Fenty Hair recognized across makeup, skin care, and hair care.

The honors come during the 30th anniversary of Allure’s annual Best of Beauty Awards, which recognized 319 products this year.

Fenty Beauty took home Best Liquid Blush for its Shake ’N Play Buildable Liquid Blush. The formula earned praise for its natural-looking finish, blendability, and staying power. Available in five shades, the liquid blush is designed to be layered so users can control the intensity of their color.

Fenty Skin also landed a win with the Dew N Plump Intense Hydration Slushie Mask, named Best Hydrating Mask.

The cooling gel mask combines ingredients including cherry and starfruit juices, watermelon seed oil, glycerin, and sodium hyaluronate. Its unusual slush-inspired texture and built-in applicator were among the features that stood out to Allure’s editors.

Rihanna’s newest beauty venture, Fenty Hair, completed the three-brand sweep.

The Imposter Invisi-Boost Volumizing Dry Shampoo was named Best Dry Shampoo Powder. The lilac-tinted powder uses oil-absorbing starches to refresh hair between wash days while adding volume at the roots without leaving behind the chalky appearance often associated with powdered dry shampoos.

The trio of awards underscores just how far Rihanna’s Fenty operation has expanded since she entered the beauty business in 2017.

Fenty Beauty debuted that year with a foundation collection offering 40 shades, drawing widespread attention to the beauty industry’s longstanding lack of options for consumers with darker skin tones. The launch helped make broader shade ranges a much more visible priority across the cosmetics market.

Rihanna expanded into skin care with Fenty Skin in 2020 before moving into hair care with Fenty Hair in 2024.

The latest awards arrive during another busy year for the singer and entrepreneur.

Rihanna recently appeared in W magazine’s Pop Issue with her daughter, Rocki, in the baby’s first public appearance. Rocki was photographed wearing a custom Dior Haute Couture diaper and headpiece designed by Jonathan Anderson.

“The haute couture diaper is definitely a first for Dior,” Anderson told W, while describing Rihanna as someone who is “already ahead of what is happening” when she approaches him with an idea.

The issue also featured A$AP Rocky, Mariah Carey, Mary J. Blige, SZA, Pharrell Williams, and others reflecting on Rihanna’s impact on music, fashion, and popular culture.

Rocky, Rihanna’s longtime partner and the father of her three children, summed up his view of her influence in just a few words: “This woman has always been magic.”

With Fenty Beauty, Fenty Skin, and Fenty Hair now all earning Best of Beauty recognition in the same year, Rihanna’s beauty portfolio is showing that its reach extends well beyond the brand that started it all.
