GloRilla's Must Haves: From Her Go-To Fenty Beauty Product to a Portable Speaker
Rapper GloRilla values honesty above all — and that shines through not only on her Instagram, where she shares current projects with her fans, but in each and every interview. The 25-year-old "TGIF" singer recently sat down for an episode of "Close Friends Only" with Megan Thee Stallion — available to watch on Spotify and YouTube — and she described the podcast experience as a good conversation with a good friend. "I was just able to be laid-back, be comfortable and be myself with Meg," she tells PS. "There were a lot of new things that my fans were able to learn about my personality. Honestly, we were just cracking jokes and laughing way too much."
In the same vein, GloRilla openly shared her career goals, must-have products, and daily routine with PS. Besides becoming a rap legend — her new album, "Glorious", drops on Oct. 11 and is now available for pre-order — she's planning to enter a totally different tax bracket. "I want to be a billionaire," she says. "I'm manifesting that for myself right now." Alongside financial success, she also prioritizes health and wellness, sharing she's fully committed to working out regularly, with protein shakes at the ready for recovery.
But the Memphis native isn't all work and no play. Her off-duty days are just as valuable to the rising star and they involve a lot of cleaning. "If I wasn't traveling and working right now, I'd be home and I'd prioritize cleaning up my house," she shares. "I love coming home to a clean house and just having that sense of peace. Then, I'd set some time to relax, watch my favorite TV shows and movies, and eat my favorite foods."
Ahead, you can learn more about her top five essentials, from a portable Bluetooth speaker for hyping herself up on set to a bestselling Fenty Beauty product.
GloRilla's Beauty Must Have
GloRilla names Fenty Beauty by Rihanna's Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer ($21) her favorite lip gloss. "It's definitely a must have, whether I'm leaving my house to work or have fun," she tells PS. Available in nine different shades, the bestselling product incorporates shea butter to condition skin, plus it's crueltly-free and void of parabens and phthalates. The scent is described as peach-vanilla, so if you're sensitive to fragrance-infused beauty products, ensure that flavor works for you.
Brand founder Rihanna, who is also a GloRilla fan, describes her intention behind creating the product: "I made it because I wanted the girls to get kissed more."
GloRilla's Affordable Must Have
GloRilla's beauty and wellness products are relatively simple, and her go-to Dial Soap ($7) is no exception. "I'm all about staying as fresh and clean as possible, so Dial is my go-to soap whenever I shower," she tells PS. If you're always switching up your soap brands, know that GloRilla's choice in Dial is nothing to scoff at. The brand is dermatologist tested and approved under the Leaping Bunny cruelty-free program. It's also free from parabens, phthalates, silicones, and sulfated surfactants.
GloRilla's Investment Must Have
"My whole life is on my iPhone 15 ($699)," GloRilla tells PS. "I need it to call my family, to communicate with my team, to stay on top of my social media, and everything." GloRilla finds that right now, the number one trend in her industry is posting everything on Instagram, and of course she's game to participate. "As an artist, I use Instagram to connect with my fans, so it's definitely helpful. I'm always watching and learning new things on Instagram, too," she says.
GloRilla's Music Must Have
"I always need to have a Bluetooth speaker to set the vibes. If I'm at a shoot, I just like to listen to my favorite artists and get myself in the right mindset to work. Sometimes, I play my music and other times, I'm listening to my favorite artists," GloRilla says. Her go-to speaker is from Bose, and the SoundLink Flex Bluetooth Portable Speaker ($149) has all the essential specs that make for a quality portable player that's also waterproof and easy to travel with. It comes in eight different shades and is equipped with Proprietary PositionIQ technology, which instantly adjusts and improves the audio quality depending on the orientation of your speaker and where it's placed.
GloRilla's Wellness Must Have
"Oral hygiene is key, so I need my toothbrush to protect my gums and take care of my teeth," GloRilla says, naming Colgate as her favorite brand. The Colgate Hum Smart Electric Toothbrush ($17) has a timer, is Bluetooth-friendly, and can rotate through three different vibration modes. It keeps you on track while you're brushing by pulsing every 30 seconds throughout the two-minute timer period to encourage your progress.
