Fans aren't letting a lack of Rihanna's Body Lava stop them from trying it out
The demand for Fenty Beauty products is high and with good reason: Rihanna is amazing.
When teasing her new Body Lava -- which according to the Fenty website is "a limited-edition gel-based body luminizer" -- Rihanna posted this sultry video demonstrating the product on her shoulder.
After squirting out the shimmering liquid, Rihanna takes a pastel powder puff and rubs it in, flashing a sweet smile at the camera.

Unable to procure some Body Lava of their own, fans were determined to recreate the video in a more DIY fashion, using interesting substitutes for the Body Lava and the brush.
Results vary.
