Fenty Diamond Bomb Highlighter gives ‘show stopping sparkle.’
Fenty Beauty pushes the boundaries of makeup, and not only because it’s inclusive (although a foundation with 50 shades is a huge feat). No, there’s another reason Rihanna’s Fenty makeup line opens new horizons to makeup lovers: she encourages creativity. When using Fenty products, the possibilities are endless.
One of the products Rihanna really motivates fans to have fun with is her Diamond Bomb All Over Diamond Veil. This highlighter makeup is marketed as a superfine sparkle for both the face and body. In Rihanna’s Tuesday Tutorial on the brand’s YouTube channel, she applies it on the top of her cheekbones, but doesn’t stop there. She also sweeps it onto her shoulders, collarbone, eyelids, down the bridge of her nose, and into the inner corners of her eyes. That’s quite a lot of uses, and Rihanna makes it clear that this Fenty Highlighter is “fair game,” to be applied anywhere you want a little bit of sparkle.
Promises vs. Performance: This glitter makeup is intense.
Fenty Diamond Bomb is a ‘one-of-a-kind diamond-dusted highlighter.’ The powder has a jelly-like consistency that feels bouncy and cool to the touch, effortlessly melting into skin. Its 3D shimmering formula and superfine glitter makes for an insane sparkle anywhere you want a little extra pizazz.
When I apply this highlighter, I’m much more conservative than Rihanna is. For a more everyday look, I like to lightly dust the powder on the top of my cheekbones. And, wow, is it glittery! As the ‘Diamond Bomb’ name suggests, this powder is an explosion of scattered, shimmering crystals, Personally, I’m not a huge fan of overly glitter makeup for everyday wear. I prefer a more dewy, glowy look for everyday, but there’s a time and place for intense shimmer. The sparkles lasts all day, beautifully catching and reflecting light.
Quick Rating Rundown
How It Compares: Fenty Diamond Bomb is perfect for special occasions.
While I think Fenty Diamond Bomb is absolutely stunning, it’s not an everyday highlighter for me. I prefer something a bit less intense with more of a dewy, wet-skin look. That’s where MAC Mineralize Skinfinish comes in. This product, also made for both the body and face, and truly looks wet on the skin. It’s a cult classic for a reason, as its baked formula adds the perfect amount of shine.
But, for a dazzling look and special occasions, Fenty Diamond Bomb delivers that high-impact sparkle. The glitter is superfine and not chunky, leaving behind a glistening, 3D effect. One way I like to make this Fenty highlighter wearable for everyday is using it as eyeshadow or an eyeshadow topper!
