Normani gives credit to the 90’s inspiration from Nia Long, Toni Braxton, and Mary J. Blige.
During an interview with Vogue Normani said, “I feel like I always try to give 90’s actress vibes. When it comes to my make-up. Like I love Nia Long. even Toni Braxton. Just regal and brown. Let it be about skin. Light contour. I be on my Mary J. Blige“.
My brows are probably my favorite feature,” the 26-year-old notes, especially because they remind her of her father. “I grew up watching my mom do her hair and makeup, and I wanted to be just like her so I think that that’s where that fascination and love for makeup and hair comes from,” she says as she color-corrects. “My mommy and my daddy are my everything. They’re my purpose—my why.” After grooming her brows into place with an Anastasia Beverly Hills brow pen and wax, she creates a subtle smokey eye with liquid liner and a Fenty Beauty palette, then moves into concealer and contour.
During a physical tutorial of her make-up routine, she explained she was always one in three black girls in school.
She also reminisced on her brand ambassador days for Rihanna’s Fenty. Rihanna loved her so much she told her, “I don’t know if I love you or hate you”. Because Normani is such a baddie.
Normani stood as Fenty’s first brand ambassador.
