We’ve seen a lot of celebrity-inspired makeup looks over the years. Some get close, some fall flat, and then once in a while, someone absolutely nails it. This time, it wasn’t a Hollywood MUA or a high-end stylist. It was a homegrown talent from Kolhapur who left the internet buzzing. It all started when Rihanna, the queen of cool herself, turned up at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s grand pre-wedding bash in Jamnagar. The global media was already obsessed with the star-studded affair, but Rihanna’s entrance? That became a moment.
Among many who were inspired by her looks, is Sonali, a mehendi and makeup artist from Kolhapur. She decided to recreate Rihanna’s look. She uploaded her transformation on Instagram and within hours, the video took off. People were left blinking in disbelief. Could someone really pull off Rihanna’s iconic look perfectly?
Turns out, yes. Yes, she could. Sonali popped in green-brown contact lenses to mirror Rihanna’s gaze. Brow gel came next. Her concealer routine? Spot-on, and she even talked viewers through the shades and reasoning.
Sonali used soft browns, cool greys, black and green to recreate that smoky, almost dreamy eye look Rihanna rocked. And she layered it all with intention, step by step. Kajal for depth, under-eye cream for brightness and powder for setting. She picked out just the right bronzer, applied blush with finesse, used a dark-brown crayon for the lips and topped it off with gloss. When she finally revealed her look side-by-side with Rihanna’s, viewers had their jaws dropped on the floor.
The comments section was ablaze with admiration. Viewers flooded in with praise like, “Omg!!! U look like Rihaanaaa at the end ! Woahhhh” and “You look amazing better than the OG I’d say keep it up love.” One stunned user wrote, “Wait, this is not Rihanna? She nailed it!” while another insisted, “Give her a ticket to Hollywood already.” Compliments kept rolling in – “So much better than typical influencer makeup. She understood the assignment,” and “She didn’t just copy, she embodied Rihanna.”
Some were in awe of her raw talent, calling it “Real, raw, desi talent!” and one heartfelt message read, “You’re putting Kolhapur on the global makeup map!” People couldn’t get enough. Several other comments poured in praising her artistry and eye for detail.
