Rihanna has named the two Real Housewives glam teams she’d consider trading for her own, and her choices are Porsha Williams from “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” and Lisa Barlow from “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.”

During an interview with The Cut, the Fenty Beauty founder was asked which Housewife’s glam team she would choose if she had to make a switch. Instead of settling on one, Rihanna gave two women their flowers.“I was watching the ‘Ultimate Girls Trip,’ the most recent one, and Porsha’s makeup looked so flawless at all times, but I also love Lisa Barlow’s,” Rihanna shared.
Now, getting a makeup compliment from Rihanna is already a moment. But having the woman behind one of the biggest beauty brands recognize your glam while watching reality television? That’s a serious endorsement.
Rihanna went on to explain what she appreciates about Lisa’s approach to beauty, particularly her appreciation for her glam team and the way her makeup complements her skin.
“I just love her love for makeup and her trust in her makeup team,” Rihanna said.

She also praised how Lisa does “like glam mixed with like incredible skin and bronze, and everything looks like cream products.”
And while Porsha and Lisa both caught her attention, Rihanna made it clear that she isn’t loyal to just one makeup aesthetic.
“I love both,” she said.
“I love the super beat glam down mattified look, but I also really enjoy seeing like skin and dewiness, and I really love that, actually.”
Her two picks reflect those different beauty preferences. Porsha’s consistently flawless makeup caught Rihanna’s eye throughout Ultimate Girls Trip, while Lisa’s bronzed, skin-focused glam earned just as much appreciation.
Both women were part of the cast celebrating 20 years of the Real Housewives franchise on “Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th,” which brought together familiar faces from different cities.
Lisa has also been especially vocal about how much she values professional glam. During an earlier season of “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,” she revealed that she spent an average of $60,000 annually on makeup services and regularly had her makeup done.
As for Rihanna, even after breaking down what she loves about both women’s beauty looks, she couldn’t choose one over the other.
“So it’s between, it’s between those two for me.”
One thing is clear: Porsha Williams and Lisa Barlow have officially received a beauty compliment from Rihanna herself.
