She has
recently been hard at work on her hotly-anticipated eighth studio album,
as well as performing with Eminem on The Monster Tour.
But it looks as though Rihanna is now in holiday mode, as she posted a number vacation snaps on Tuesday.
While
the singer kept the luxury looking location a secret, she was happy to
show off her bikini body posing in a black two-piece.
Island life: Rihanna shares a sexy bikini photo on her Twitter account on Tuesday
She captioned two pictures 'sun.rise' and 'sun.down' as she revealed her svelte silhouette while standing on a yacht.
Rihanna
has remained tight-lipped about her new record, apart from tweeting a
studio pictures a few months back with the hash-tag 'R8'.
The Bajan beauty is certainly no stranger to living it up on her free time when she's not performing.
However,
the 25-year-old pop star recently admitted that she has bad days just
like everyone else and often cuts out booze in order to clear up her
pores.
Covering up: Rihanna followed the post with this snap which she captioned 'sun. down.'
She explained: 'When I feel like my skin has had it, I cut all the alcohol completely and overdo the water.
'The
morning of the Chanel couture show last year, I was so jet-lagged that I
really didn't sleep, and I had some wine the night before. I was like,
'Oh my God, I look old as shit! Who is this person?"'.
And
if drinking lots of water doesn't do the trick, the Diamonds hitmaker
suggests using lots of beauty products to look your best.
Just a gal's holiday: RiRi also posted this vacation snap with a pal
Speaking
to US ELLE magazine, she advised: 'Mix moisturiser and a drop of
foundation. That, some mascara, lipstick, and you're good. And fix those
brows.'
Born in Barbados, Rihanna loves lounging in the sun but wears extra sunscreen to protect her skin.
She
explained: 'I love going home and being reckless with the sun, but I
notice now that under my eyes starts to get tan. I hate that! I have to
put extra sunscreen there.'
The
We Found Love singer - who has her own line of lipstick with MAC
cosmetics - added that the lip-enhancing accessory is her favourite
beauty product.
Rihanna
added: 'It draws attention away from any flaws. When someone is wearing
lipstick, you just assume they're wearing a full face of makeup. And
guys are stupid -- they won't notice when you're not.'
