i agree with her . In holland it is even worse you can only get concealer and foundation for darker complexions at MAC or the beauty supply store and they only carry sleek . We used to have black up at Douglass but I think they stopped carrying the product . Even maybeline and rimmel dont carry darker foundations and concealers Cry when I was in the states it was like being in heaven hahahah

Better late than never, I guess? Could be that her children are going through some things and she's starting to wake up. She never struck me as the enlightened type before. But I didn't know she was traumatized as a kid.
I think she is a good actress, I think living in the UK race problems are a bit different also being a STAR I am sure her comments are frequently taken out of context lets give her the benefit

No doubt, she is a skilled actress. And you're right, uk race problems probably manifest differently. Don't know about the area she grew up in but she could have been the only kid of colour in a sea of white faces. But let's face it, she's never exactly been the one to be vocal on these types of issues before. So I'm assuming that her consciousness is slowly awakening.
Cornwall is full of whites, no blackies at all...the cornish don't even like the rest of England

I was just having this same rant the other day, I went to Boots and Superdrug to get a cheap concealer (I use Lancome foundation) and I couldn't find one past a weird shade of peach they had a couple of darker foundations but no matching concealer? How do you only do half the job? Just lazy! It made me so mad I want to write to the makeup companies here but I don't think they care.
Lancome is the only foundation which i have found which suits me 100%..even mac is too red for me
