This Spring brings a LOT for Rihanna! Her successful rock-career, this season’s sure to be a Blockbuster hit Oceans 8, The Met Gala, the remarkably well selling Fenty Beauty line, her partnership with online retail giant TechStyle direct-to-consumer lingerie line, and whew – being on the June cover of Vogue!

The multi award winning superstar recently hit a huge age milestone and when this is brought up in her interview Rihanna muses, “OK, so now that I’m 30, are there things I’m supposed to do? Should I be worried? Should I be freezing my eggs? What do you do at 30?!”

Yes, it’s true - @badgalriri is all grown up and keeping it real fully committing to a healthy work-life balance. “Even mentally, just to be away from my phone, to be in the moment, that has been key for my growth,” she says during the interview. “Now, when I come to work, I’m all in. Because before you know it, the years will go by. I’m glad I’m taking the time. I’m happy.”

Rihanna’s upcoming lingerie line Savage X Fenty includes a true “nude” for every skin color and features real women with real bodies. Her recently started Fenty Beauty line also covers products for a wide range of complexions to which Rihanna is extremely proud of, telling Vogue, “But what I didn’t anticipate was the way people would get emotional about finding their complexion on the shelf, that this would be a groundbreaking moment.”

Perhaps the most exciting part of this interview is watching Rihanna share her beauty tips in the “Epic 10-Minute Guide to Going Out Makeup”.
