That only happens after we do the work to dismantle the systems that support it (which is MOST of them, not just police) and its hard work that many people don't want to do because it makes them uncomfortable. Less wishing, more working.

I want to point out that the whites woman asking for a white beauty advisor was asking for just that a beauty advisor.. not someone to apply makeup.. she wanted someone to walk around with her to educate her about products in the store not someone to do a mini make over on her or foundation match.. just putting it out there.

[@Genevie_G30]

Oh, I thought you meant she wanted a white person to do her make up and I was very confused because in another video, you said Black people asked for Black people and Asian people ask for Asian people, so I was confused why she couldn’t do that lol. With White people looking for make up for Black people sometimes they don’t know the correct shade and like concealer and stuff like that because I know when I worked at a makeup store, a lot of the white women didn’t understand how to do it for the black women, so it kind of makes sense for the white woman to do the same thing, but also she could’ve known about what your coworker did with making that girl silver before her sister’s wedding and didn’t know that you guys are taught the same thing? I’m not trying to defend her, but this happened a lot at the make up store I used to work at, and that was the reasoning they gave us.

[@Berriyes]

@@Genevie_G30 side eye

[@Genevie_G30]

@@Berriyes why bc she shouldn’t be mad at a white person for doing the same thing every other race has been doing? I’m Hispanic, they don’t get angry w me but they did my white friend

[@nayatarot777]

@@Genevie_G30 paris has already clarified that the problem is that she wasn’t looking for someone to do her makeup. just to walk around the store with her and educate her about different products. not colour match or anything. she’s also clarified in another video that it makes sense to her that when people are asking for their makeup to be done, that they ask for someone of the same race. that’s why that person is side-eyeing you. all of this has been clarified. so…what’s the problem? also, there’s still a major difference in what makeup artists are taught about makeup - especially in beauty school. the FIRST type of makeup, hair, etc that people of all races are taught to do is white people’s makeup and white people’s hair. white makeup artists not knowing how to colour match other races is PREVALENTLY higher than the other way around BECAUSE of that reason. it still makes sense why someone would want to get their makeup done by someone who looks like them, but m you’re trying to say that makeup artists of a different race to their clients not knowing how to colour match is equal across the board - but it’s not.
