64. ‘Beauty for All’ by Fenty Beauty


Rihanna needs no introduction. One personality with many talents who has won our hearts over the years. She is best known for her songs and as an actress, but, she is a well-established businesswoman as well. In September 2017, Robyn Rihanna Fenty launched her cosmetic brand called Fenty Beauty.


The idea behind the brand is ‘beauty for all’. Because of her love for makeup, Rihanna used to experiment with all kinds of makeup and cosmetic brands available. She identified the need for cosmetics that are made for all skin types and complexion.

Fenty Beauty was made with the idea of makeup being inclusive. Inclusive here means inclusive of all skin colours, skin types and gender. Fenty beauty products are not restricted to any gender. It is one of its kind make range which suits all complexions. This is very rare to find in the beauty industry. The inclusivity is in terms of gender, skin tones, and skin type.  

With the makeup industry being ignorant to many skin tones, Fenty Beauty launched with 40 shades of foundation. Their products such as lipsticks, blush, eye shadow, etc are suitable for each and every complexion. The brand with its launch was like a wakeup call to the industry. It is led by one of the most popular people in the world with an ideology so strong that it is bound to have a massive impact.

According to Rihanna, Fenty beauty was made ‘so that women everywhere would be included , It focuses on a wide range of traditionally hard-to-match skin tones, creating formulas that work for all skin types, and pinpointing universal shades.’

Within just a few years of its launch Fenty beauty has become the go-to makeup brand for many young consumers across the globe. The brand has a mission to break the beauty standards and make it ‘Beauty for All’.

Fashion is a major part of the lifestyle we lead and being fashionable is the choice we make. Every buying decision, every piece of clothing in our wardrobe is a choice but, who is to say that we have made the right decision? There is so much going on in the fashion industry that many of us are not aware of. Fast Fashion is one of those things. Rapidly-changing fashion trends and the consumer’s desire of having each and every popular style has given birth to the concept of fast fashion. We as consumers have become so fashion-conscious that we put too much thought and money into what we wear, which is not wrong, but considering its impact on the environment, maybe it is! Fast fashion is basically fashion which changes with the rapidly-changing trends and focuses on speed and low cost. These type of clothing don’t have much wardrobe life. They are mainly focused on making the fashion available from ramp to the market at a much cheaper rate. The vibrant colours, designs and novel...

73. Millennials Who? Stereotyping the Demographic cohort

Image
Millennials is a term commonly used to define a certain demographic of the population. Also known as Generation Y, millennials denote a set of people based on their demographic. The term has been derived from the demographic cohort of the population as a whole. Each and every category has been placed in buckets namely, Generation X (1965-1980), Generation Y or Millennials (1981-1996) and Generation Z (1997-Present). The age range of the Millenials has been reported differently at various platforms but The American Psychological Association described it as people born between 1981 to 1996 which is a widely accepted categorisation. Instead of representing the generation, the term has become a stereotype for people belonging to certain demographics representing their behaviours, habits, and beliefs.
