Fenty Dropped a New Collection, But These Are the Only 2 Items Worth Your Money
When Fenty drops a new collection, the internet usually stops moving, and our bank accounts start trembling. The Wattabrat Collection is no exception—pink, glittery, and impossible to ignore. But in this economy, not every limited-edition release deserves a permanent spot in your vanity. This time around, Rihanna served us a heart-shaped, shimmer-loaded Fairy Bomb, two pink glitter glosses, and two mini Killawatt highlighters. After vetting the formulas and shades, only two products are actually worth the investment.
Fenty Beauty Wattabrat Collection
This release brings back two fan favorite formulas and adds a collector piece for those who want a bit of extra drama. Here is the quick breakdown of what these products actually do.
The Gloss Bomb
This is the gold standard for a reason. It is a high shine formula that feels like a treatment rather than just a sticky gloss. It uses Vitamin E and Shea Butter to keep your lips hydrated, which is why it feels comfortable for hours. In this collection, you get that same juicy look with a heavy dose of pink glitter.
The Killawatt Highlighter
Fenty highlighters are famous for being cream powder hybrids. They feel creamy to the touch but apply with the lightness of a powder. This formula is designed to melt into the skin so you do not have harsh lines sitting on top of your foundation. It is long wear and high impact, staying vibrant from your first meeting until your last drink of the night.
The Fairy Bomb Shimmer Puff
This is an ultra plush, heart shaped flower puff designed for instant body glitz. It is packed with superfine pink shimmer inspired by the Wattabrat highlighter shade to give you an allover glow. Beyond the sparkle, it leaves behind an indulgent vanilla coconut scent. Just keep in mind that this specific item is for adult use only.
What To Skip
1. Fairy Bomb Wattacrush Shimmer Puff
While the fluffy, heart-shaped packaging is undeniably tempting and looks great on display, it is ultimately unnecessary if you are picking up the highlighter. The Mini Killawatt Freestyle Highlighters provide the same ethereal shine but with much more precision and less mess. Unless you are buying it strictly as a collector’s piece, the Shimmer Puff is a skip.
2. Gloss Bomb in ‘Wattab!*%#’
This deeper pink is stunning, but it poses a major problem: redundancy. It bears a striking resemblance to the Gloss Bomb Oil in Razzberry Jamz. If you already own Razzberry Jamz, which I consider the most wearable shade for dark skin, there is no need to add a near-identical shade to your makeup collection.
3. Mini Killawatt in ‘Wattab!*%#’
The deeper pink highlighter is beautiful for a specific editorial look, but it lacks the versatility of the lighter ‘Wattabrat’ shade. Because it has a stronger base pigment, it requires more effort to harmonize with the rest of your look. For a product that actually moves with you from the office to a night out, the sheerer, lighter pink is the smarter investment.
Why These Two Made the Cut
Gloss Bomb in ‘Wattabrat’: Realistically, no one needs another lip gloss, but ‘Wattabrat’ is the exception because it fills a genuine gap in the market. I spend enough time on the Sephora website to know that finding a truly sheer, cool-toned light pink with this level of sophisticated shimmer is nearly impossible. Most pink glosses either lean too opaque or too “young,” but this formula uses a refined glitter that catches the light without looking heavy. It is the rare kind of product that actually makes sense for your real life. You can wear it to a Monday morning meeting for a polished look, or toss it in your bag for a Saturday night out or a paddle session with the girls. While the deeper shades in this collection feel familiar, this specific light pink is a unique addition to any bag.
Mini Killawatt in ‘Wattabrat’: This is the ultimate versatile highlighter you absolutely need in your makeup pouch. Unlike its counterpart, this is a sheer pink glitter. You do not need to worry about the rest of your makeup harmonizing with it. It takes you from the office to happy hour by swatching it across your lids for a glittery eye look. For an even spicier finish, you can apply it on your collarbone for an ethereal shine.
Pro-tip: Apply a body oil before dusting the highlighter on your body to really lock in that glow.
