If there’s one thing the skincare world agrees on, it’s that simplicity is having a moment. Long gone are the exhausting 10-step regimens and the parade of serums promising overnight miracles. Today’s routine is smarter, streamlined and, thankfully, more sustainable for your sanity and your skin barrier.
Fenty Skin captures this shift perfectly with a minimalist trio that checks every box: a deep-cleaning yet gentle cleanser, a multitasking toner-serum hybrid and a tinted mineral SPF that doubles as a moisturiser and tone enhancer. Together, they form a routine that feels luxe but lives in the real world—plus works just as well at 6AM as it does post-pilates, pre-Zoom or mid–Sunday scaries.
Here’s your no-fuss Fenty Skin routine, step by step
(aka the multitasking overachiever your sink’s been waiting for)
This cleanser not only removes makeup, it dissolves it. It’s a creamy, lathering formula that gets every last trace of foundation, SPF and city gunk off your face without leaving your skin gasping for hydration.
What we loved: It smells faintly like Barbados in bloom (translation: cherry and coconut), removes eye makeup without irritation and doesn’t strip your skin.
Not one of those face washes that makes your skin feel tight enough to snap, it’s gentle, hydrating and basically the Fenty of cleansers. Use it in the morning and at night. Yes, even when you’re too tired. Yes, even when you’re just going to wear your WFH face all day. Rihanna washes her face—and so will you.
If a toner and a serum had a baby (and that baby had a glow filter built in), it would be this multitasker. Fat Water is exactly what your dehydrated skin craves. This one is a plush, slightly viscous toner that feels more like a serum, loaded with niacinamide (that ingredient everyone on social media keeps mispronouncing), Barbados cherry and Australian lemon myrtle. It fights pores, controls oil, evens tone and leaves your skin looking dewy. Your easy, swipe-on-and-go skincare, it doesn’t need a cotton pad—just press it in with your hands. It’s like your skin took a long drink of water.
Bonus: It preps your face for makeup, so your foundation doesn’t cling to dry patches or play you in photos.
Mineral SPF has had a rough PR run. Chalky, ghostly, smells like your childhood pool—it’s been called a lot of names. But Fenty’s Hydra Vizor Huez is a tinted moisturiser that just happens to be a sunscreen. This one comes in flexible tones to suit a wide range of skin shades, because no one wants to look like they dipped their face in powdered sugar. It hydrates and protects your skin and evens out the tone.
What it won’t do is leave any white cast, pill under makeup or smell like SPF. But what it will do is save you time in the morning, replace your foundation on glowy skin days and make strangers ask what base you’re wearing.
If you’ve got commitment issues, we see you. Try the Start’R Set Refresh – Mineral, a travel-size trio of the cleanser, toner-serum and tinted SPF if you aren’t sure about the routine yet. Perfect for testing the waters (or your weekend bag) and ideal if you’re the type to ghost your skincare routine by week three and need to date around a bit before settling down.
