- Oh my gosh it's so so pretty.
- I love this color.
- Yeah, it's such a good color on you.
It just really compliments you so well.
- This has been like the best day ever.
I'm Jenna Rosenstein and this is The Beauty Show.
On today's episode of Beauty Stash
we're inside the home of celebrity makeup artist,
and global makeup artist for Fenty Beauty, Priscilla Ono.
- Hey. - I'm so excited to be here.
- Oh my gosh thanks for coming and sharing a boba with me.
- Of course.
But really what I'm here to see is your beauty stash.
'Cause I've heard it's crazy.
- It's pretty good. - Okay, I'm so excited.
- You wanna go see it? - Yeah please.
- All right, let's go.
(upbeat electronic music)
So this is my glam room. - Wow, this is stunning.
Look at those windows, this light.
But where's all of your makeup?
- This is my Fenty Beauty stash.
- So this is where you keep everything,
even limited edition collections--
- Yes, I have a lot of limited edition collections
and I mean we can start in the beginning
like these are all the foundations.
There's 40, 50 shades now.
I have so many 340s 'cause that's Ri's shade
so I always have to have those on deck.
The concealers are just launched so I have all of these here
- Look at this, oh my god it's heaven.
- You know, Ri's also 340 in concealer.
Sometimes we'll do 300 though like for brightening.
So I have tons of those.
- How often do you do her makeup?
Is it mostly for Fenty Beauty events or?
- So I do her makeup for Fenty Beauty events, red carpets,
and anything of her personal that is like
where she's gonna be out and being filmed
but Rihanna's like a makeup artist in her own right.
She usually does her own makeup day to day.
So if you see paparazzi pictures of her
just casually walking into a meeting, she did it herself.
- Like when she has a crazy lip color on, that's just her.
- Yes, she's so good at doing her makeup.
- Do you have a favorite brush in the entire line?
- Oh my gosh yes.
I'm obsessed with the foundation brush.
This is like the best brush I use this for foundation,
I use it for contouring, blush.
Do you have one?
- I don't (gasps) yes, score.
- You know what, I'm gonna give you one of these too.
- Thank you, so what do you do--
- And a body lava, you need a body lava too.
I think you need "who needs clothes",
which is like a pinker one, yeah this one.
- Thank you, oh my god I am stocked up for summer.
- These are the summer essentials for sure.
The body lava and a kabuki brush, that's all you need.
- And you apply it, you do the little Rihanna thing.
If you guys don't know what I'm talking about
just look on Instagram. - Just look on Instagram.
- It's the Body Lava challenge.
- Look at hashtag body lava challenge,
you'll know what we're talking about.
(laughing)
- So tell me what are some of your
other favorite products in the line?
'Cause there are, there's so many things now.
- If like, I could just have one product
I would probably always say Match Stix
because you can do anything.
We have our mattes and then we have our shimmers.
So this is what they actually look like when they're out.
And you can get one at a time
but then you can kind of like collect them
and they magnetize together which is cool.
- Yeah they're just like a creamy pigment
you can put anywhere, right?
- Put anywhere, you can use them as foundation, concealer,
touch up, contour, blush, I've done eyebrows with them, lip.
- No way. - Mmhmm.
- Eyebrows, that's crazy. - Yes.
- Is there one color that you would recommend?
- My favorite color for fair skin is amber,
it's a great contour shade.
I also really love peach because it's really good
for under the eyes, like concealing,
'cause it has that peachy tone.
I use suede a lot for 200 skin tones for contour.
And then for Rihanna, I always use mocha
and truffle as her contour shades.
These are a fan favorite.
The highlighters that changed the game we say.
And this is the one that she used for the Met Gala
when she did the Comme des Garcons dress,
years before Fenty Beauty even launched.
- Was it the pink, the super pink blush?
- Yeah, nobody even knew that she was developing this
and she debuted it and two years later she came out with it.
- Here it is.
Makeup takes a long time, I think people don't realize that.
Do you have a hand in that process too?
- Now I do.
I get to help out with future products
which is the best ever.
- Is it so much fun? - It's so much fun.
Especially because she is the leader
so they're all her ideas and you know,
she has such good ideas and she's so creative
so working with her is like a dream come true.
So these are the bronzers that are amazing
because we have shades for all skin tones.
Which you'll never see really with bronzers.
- Yeah it's usually just like here's one color.
- Three if you're lucky.
This is like the perfect formula.
- And the packaging is beautiful.
- So stunning, I can't wait to put this on you later.
- Yeah.
- Will you let me do your makeup?
- Please, I need all the help I can get.
- Okay good, 'cause I'm gonna also give you a sneak peek
of something that's coming out today
and I want you to be like the first person I put it on.
- Yes, I mean dream come true.
What's in the archives?
- So archives I have like a couple things.
This gloss I kept, this was actually Rihanna's tester gloss
from before she even launched Fenty Beauty.
This one doesn't even say Fenty Beauty anymore.
And you can even see the name, right,
because this is ya know one of her testers.
I was like you know what I'm gonna keep it.
- So when you open a makeup museum one day,
that will be-- - It'll be in there.
And then I also have, I kept her lashes,
the actual lashes that she wore
when we did the Coachella pink eyelash look.
Everyone was like oh my gosh that's such a cool look.
- I always thought that you guys were gonna
launch colored mascara after seeing this look.
- Right?
But you know what, we just mixed a pigment
like an eyeshadow pigment,
with a little bit of clear mascara to make this.
And then these little star rhinestones
are the little Swarovski crystals that I put on her
for another Coachella look that we did
when she wore the Gucci mask.
So those are like my little archive remembrance--
- For the museum one day. - For the museum one day.
- And then look at this.
- For me they are so close to my heart
because 15 years ago, when I first started doing makeup,
it was a dream to get a PR package.
And now I'm doing makeup that's in the PR packages
so for me it's kinda like surreal.
That one is actually only the second time
I had ever done Rihanna's makeup.
'Cause the first time I did her makeup was actually
when I was trying out for the global artist role.
- 'Cause I think people don't realize how you got picked.
You were in like a competition.
- It was a full on competition, they had cameras too.
I wonder if they're ever gonna release it
because we had like thousands of makeup artists
that came from all over the world to try out.
Then they cut it down to 30 and then we had a casting
where we went two days and we really had to do challenges.
So we had to do makeup in front of a camera
and see how we spoke while we were doing it.
We had to do makeup on a model and we only had 20 minutes
and pretend like it was a runway show.
And then last minute someone comes in
and says okay we're changing the entire look,
now you have to do this.
The last three, no one told us,
but I knew in my gut this was gonna happen,
that she was gonna show up.
- Because of course, it's for her line.
- Right.
But no one said anything and then just one by one
we were called into a room and then she was in there.
Her assistant was like okay so you're gonna do her makeup,
you have 45 minutes, this is the look you're gonna do
and no one had ever seen these products.
So I had to use all Fenty Beauty before anyone even saw it.
So I had no idea how the formulas worked--
- How it performed, yeah.
- Nothing, and it was all in tester packaging.
- Lab packaging? - Yeah, lab packaging.
At first I was a little bit nervous,
I was like oh my gosh, no pressure,
it's Rihanna, gotta do her makeup,
gotta use her makeup line that I've never used before.
- But you've worked on so many celebrities before.
- Yeah and once you get going honestly,
you get over that hump of like okay
is this really happening, and you just start.
Especially for me, I just get lost into what I do
and I forget about everything around me
and my main focus goes on executing a look.
When we got hired for this role I was told that I would
maybe do her makeup for some campaigns
but it wasn't promised.
But then one day we were on set,
I wasn't even supposed to be doing her makeup that day,
I was just there to kinda help out
with like models and stuff.
And she was just like I want Priscilla to do my makeup today
and I didn't even know that it would be these campaigns.
(laughing)
So I did her makeup and the first thing when she was done
she was like whoa Priscilla you're a beast.
You're so good, you make me feel so good, I look so good.
And when she said that I was like oh my god.
And then after that she just started calling me
to do her makeup for her personal stuff, red carpets,
and magazine covers, and now we work together all the time.
It's like a dream come true.
- It's a career defining moment.
- It really is.
- Well this is one side of your closet.
- So I have some skin care and prep stuff on this side.
I have face wipes, hand sanitizer,
my favorite brush cleaner, body moisturizer.
Tons of eyelashes.
This is really cool too that I have in my kit.
This is disposable soap.
Makeup artists have to have clean hands.
We're literally touching someone's face the whole time.
It's basically like these little sheets of soap
that just dissolve in the water.
- Oh sheets of soap.
- Yeah so they're just like little--
- So cool.
- And then you just put these in your kit.
Have you ever had a facelift?
- Um no, can't say I have.
(laughing)
- Well, this is facelift in a little package.
All you do is you put them underneath your hair.
For editorials when I'm doing models,
sometimes I want that liner to look really snatched.
So under the hair we'll just pull back a little bit
and get that eyeliner, so you just get that
really straight snatched eyeliner.
So this is what comes in handy for that.
- Oh my god, well next time I want my eyeliner
to look straight, I'm just gonna pull my face back.
(laughing) - Right, exactly.
- That is so cool.
This is a crazy amount of stuff
between your kit and all the Fenty Beauty stuff,
but I'm also so interested in this gorgeous vanity.
This is stunning.
- Yeah, so the vanity's actually custom.
I had it custom made.
- Oh I look prettier in this already.
- You're stunning. - No it's the light.
- I don't really have to do too much.
- Well I did it myself but I always appreciate
when an expert can fix my face.
- You don't need any fixing,
I'm just gonna enhance a few things.
- Okay.
- I'm gonna give you the exclusive.
- Oh my god I am so excited.
- It's actually two products.
So we have our new lip scrub and lip moisturizer.
This is gonna save you like crazy.
So this is called our Pro Kiss'r, which is our lip balm.
That's the scrub, which is really cool
'cause it's so different.
And if you rub it on the back of your hand
just so you can feel the little grains in it,
it's so nice. - Oh yeah.
- 'Cause you get that really nice grain
which is great for exfoliating,
but then you have this like really nice smoothness to it
- It's conditioning. - that conditions, right.
Which is amazing.
This actually went back to the lab many times.
So she really wanted to perfect it.
- So it's perfected now. - So it's perfected now.
And this lip moisturizer wait 'til you try it, it's heaven.
And the wand is--
- Oh I was not expecting that.
- See, that's why I didn't tell you anything.
- Oh my god surprise surprise.
- So you get a nice wand and it has that really nice
doe foot where it's kinda like flat and it's not too small
so it actually lays on your lips perfectly.
- So is that-- - It smells really nice too.
- This is exactly what we need after a long winter.
- Right? - Pro Kiss'r.
- And it's, ya know, a really cool thing
'cause we've never really launched anything for skin care
so this is like a really nice little--
- Start of something new maybe?
(laughing) We'll see.
- All right so I'm gonna take off the lip
that you have on now. - Please.
- First I'm gonna do a little bit of the lip balm on you.
You're just gonna feel how smooth that is, right?
- It feels great.
It's really, it's not overly thick.
It doesn't have any kind of medicinal quality
like a lot of lip balms can have.
- Right, it's not heavy.
Okay so we're gonna let that soak in a little bit.
While it's soaking in I'm gonna do
a little bit of bronzer on you.
- Yes please give me cheekbones.
- Yes, so I'm gonna use the new Sun Stalker bronzer.
- That's such a fun name.
- Sun Stalker's the name of the actual bronzer itself.
And this is the color, India Sun.
A best for fair skin, and I'm using the new
bronzer brush that came out with the actual bronzers.
This is actually more of a precise brush to apply bronzer
but there's actually two.
So like if you were doing it on your own,
I would suggest this one, which is our original
cheek hugging brush, but just XL.
- Bigger? - Mmhmm.
- Yeah okay.
- It has that really cool shark tooth shape.
It's supposed to hug your cheeks so just goes there,
fits right there, and then it just hugs and you go up
and you just get that perfect application every time.
- So for the average person you would just do
one two and then walk out the door.
But you're gonna actually sculpt my face.
- And I really like this precise brush which is really nice.
So I'm just gonna take some of this and I'm just gonna
apply it right on the hollows of the cheek.
Just to kinda give your skin a little bit of a bronze.
A little bit of warmth which is nice
and just a little bit underneath the chin and jaw line
to kind of like sculpt.
'Cause you're in LA now so.
- I know I need to be fully contoured.
- So we just need this warmth.
And I like using the very tip of it
and I just like to go down the sides
of the bridge of the nose
just to get a little bit of nice definition.
Now we're gonna do lip.
Okay so I'm gonna take this and
have you used these before?
- I have.
- This applicator's so cool, right?
- So unique.
- Right it has that doe foot that kinda slants a little
so you get that really precise, perfect application.
Oh my gosh, this color on you is everything.
And you don't need to keep dipping which I love.
It's literally one dip and that's it.
So pretty. - Oh my gosh.
That is a great color. - It's so nice.
Okay I'm gonna do the Rihanna tip,
I'm gonna take a q-tip and I'm gonna soften the edges.
So we have these really nice soft edges.
Oh my gosh it's so so pretty.
- I love this color.
- You have a very romantic face.
It just really compliments you so well.
- God this has been like the best day ever.
(laughing)
- I wanna keep the romance going
so we're gonna do Girl Next Door and Chic Phreak
which is like one of my favorites.
It's like this really pretty pinky color.
And then I'm just gonna hug your cheek with it.
So just kinda back and forth,
just give you this really pretty glow.
- Oh my god, heaven. - So pretty.
Do you have this color? - I don't.
- Okay, I'm blessing you with this too.
- Oh my god.
- So it kind of gives you this nice color from within
so you just look really nice and healthy and fresh.
- Nice.
- Pretty? - Pretty.
- Thank you, oh my god this is so much fun.
- You are so refreshed now. - I really am.
I'm just loving this whole color moment that's happening.
- Here don't forget the lip paint.
- Thank you so much for having us over.
- Thanks for coming over.
You can come over anytime.
The couch is there for you.
- Yeah I'm just gonna be sleeping here.
I'm never gonna leave.
Well we have cold bobas we should probably go finish, right?
- Um yeah, let's go.
- All right bye guys, we're gonna go finish those.
- Peace. - Bye!
