Regardless of your feelings on Rihanna's halftime show performance, there's no disputing the fact that she looked radiant. While, yes, her pregnancy might have something to do with that, her own skincare line might also bear some of the responsibility.

Much has been written about how her pulling out a Fenty Beauty compact during her set caused Google searches for the superstar's makeup line to go up over 800%. But for those not inclined to go the makeup route regardless of our love for Rihanna, there's always Fenty Skin to help give us her iconic glow.
