Why is it so difficult to find properly tinted cosmetics for African Americans? Where can I find good ones?

I am looking for cosmetics that enhance my skin tone, don't change color during the day and last a long time.Why is it so difficult to find properly tinted cosmetics for African Americans? Where can I find good ones?
perscriptives. at the mall. i LOVE their makeup. i had a guy friend take me once, and HE told ME that my face looked PERFECT! i was like WOW!!!Why is it so difficult to find properly tinted cosmetics for African Americans? Where can I find good ones?
Iman makes a line for african americans - I believe you can find it at JC Penny - also just plug in cosmetics for african american women on google and see what comes up
M.A.C has been making colors for dark skin tones long before any other companies would. they have an even broader collection now. support the original and get M.A.C.
M.A.C they have every single colour of skin tone.. and the makeup is beautiful and wont cause break outs. They have so many colours of everything, like lipstick and eyeshadow and especially blush, so many to choose from! They r the best!!
well gurl i am a straight ni*ga i dont where make-up because ****** r pretty without make-up all them other races got 2 where make-up 2 make themselves prettier we dont need make-up.
If you want a free demo on products. Go to either a Victoria Secret and/or Macy's store and they will help you find the right make-up and show you different ways to wear you make-up. It is fun!!!!
Try Fashion Fair and Iman

Does anyone recommend a good african american cosmetic line that give a natural look?

In Mary Kay we have many different colors and foundations to match anyone. Go to my wesite and do a virtual make-over. It is a lot of fun!!

Iman is good- she is a supermodel who created a makeup line for women of all colors after learning that when she would model she would have to bring her own makeups because they did not have any for her skin tone. Expensive, but good :DDoes anyone recommend a good african american cosmetic line that give a natural look?
Bare minerals. I use this, but I am not black. It comes in many skin tones though, It is by far the best makeup I have ever used.
For foundations and concealers, the lines that I feel have quality products *and* good colors for darker skin shades are MAC and Becca. Lines like Iman might be good but I haven't used their products to vouch for quality.





If you can't find a good match at cosmetic counters or at the drugstore, you might want to consider pro lines like Cinema Secrets or Graftobian, both of which are *excellent* in quality, both offer great coverage, both cost less than department store foundations (a PLUS!) and most importantly work with different undertones. I love both lines and feel their quality is equal to or superior to what you'd find in department stores. I've supplied links to both lines for you to check their color ranges.





If you want to know what lines are good for color (blush, eye shadows) then I'd say MAC is a really good choice.
Mary Kay
Pro Line made for, owned by, and produced by African Amer.
You can check Avon...they have a great line of products for all skin tones...
Get yourself an African American ';Avon Lady.'; Seriously, she can help you with everything. Look up ';Avon'; in the yellow pages, and ask for an African American. They are great!!Good luck!

Does anyone know what brand of cosmetics the American Gladiator contestants wear? Venus' was waterproof!!?

American Gladiators on NBC 2/11/08 Semi-finals. Venus make-up looked perfectly in place...even after taking a dip in the pool.Does anyone know what brand of cosmetics the American Gladiator contestants wear? Venus' was waterproof!!?
Try She-laq by Benefit (http://www.benefitcosmetics.com/gp/produ鈥?/a> ) It is a clear sealant that will keep shadow, mascara and liner in place.





As for foundation, try products from Make Up For Ever. (http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jh鈥?/a> ) Every product they have is made from high quality pigments and will not budge.

    When did preservatives and synthetic ingredients start being added to american cosmetic and hygiene products?

    People didn't have the convenience of going to a supermarket and picking out face washes, shampoos, and feminine products back in the day. Now that preservatives and synthetic ingredients are highly being utilized, that has changed. Where did this all start?When did preservatives and synthetic ingredients start being added to american cosmetic and hygiene products?
    when the big bad wolf left the forest.

    Has anyone tried good skin cosmetics or American Beauty from Kohl's?

    actually that caught my eye as well :)
