Is anyone else even more offended at this half-assed attempt at an extended shade range? I’m usually inbetween both arguments for shade inclusivity for asian base products but if they’re gonna make the dark shades this embarrassingly different honestly don’t even bother imo lol.
I’m happy for the tanner asians out there but as a deeper skinned southeast asian, none of these shades work for me. They honestly don’t have the “it’s an asian product made for the korean/japanese market” excuse if they’re sending PR packages to western influencers, including poc whose skintones don’t even come close to any of their shades. I was holding off on trying it out in hopes a few of the 10 new ones would be medium-deep shades but this is just leaving an extra bad taste in my mouth (in addition to how sus their marketing already is).
