[@silvermoonshineX3]

Les livresqueries du bonbon honestly, numbers make more sense and names don't do much. You wouldn't know if nude rose (or whatever) is brighter or darker than ivory but you can definetly say that 16 is higher than 12 so depending on which way it goes (high numbers are mostly dark) you can tell it's darker/brighter. Also, it tells you how far the shades are apart.

That said, white women are generally given shades that connote something of greater value...like ivory or porcelain or alabaster as opposed to coffee and hazelnut. Obviously that's not as bad as the geography thing, or when only fair skin is considered "nude" which implies that fair skin is somehow more human or natural...but either way it's unpleasant.

[@alejandrina1780]

Originally it was to help find a shade by relating it to common objects. I don’t think the initial intent was to fetishize people. Now, yea, companies get lazy and name them inaccurate names & that is indeed bs.

[@leeneedsfriends9843]

I know of colourblind people who rely heavily on a shades name to determine what they think the colour is so it can be helpful (in otherwords I agree)

[@mignondejager7286]

when she said cinnamon as a name feeds into stereotype i was like.. k.. cinnamon is a shade of brown. sometimes they name paler shades stuff like oats and sand or whatever, but i literally just assume its a name for a shade for the sake of giving it a telling name. i dont think they mean anything else by it. theres nothing about sand or oats that can be fetishized, in fact if it were to mean anything it would imply that if youre this shade then you have no personality. id rather be compared to spice then have no personality. i dont know, sometimes i think they reach for stereotypes a bit to far in buzzfeed

[@rachelhildebrand581]

I think if it was like Fenty beauty from the beginning people would complain about their number. I'm super pale so all my foundations are the porcelain, light, fair, fair beige, ect. it's just how the beauty company decided to name it. I don' t think any beauty line should be based on the name, because imagine if an eye shadow palette wasn't named by color and by numbers.

[@phoebechristina]

I have yet to see a light tinted cinnamon so I don't mind if they call a shade for a deeper skin tone cinnamon. The naming of a foundation is not the issue. It's the shade variation the company has available for a variety of women. If the brand has only 5 shades, they're only focused on the people with the 5 shades. That's what makes Fenty, Make Up Forever, MAC and Nars truly great brands for a skin tones across the board because they make their product accessible to VARIOUS skin tones.

I agree, she put on way too much. She needs to use less and blend better.

[@sheenashroder5315]

I think it’s because of her Rosacea. I think she’s mentioned that her skin tone is all over the place (she’ll have blotches of redness) so I was kinda assuming that was why she went heavy with her foundation. To get more of an even color.

I personally hate the feeling of foundation on. So for my make up routine I put on concealer and eyebrow gel and mascara and sometimes a little bit of highlighter because I just don’t like the feeling of too much makeup on my face🙃

[@kirin1230]

In my opinion, powder is better because you can make it really light, shear and natural. It also makes your skin feel soft. It's also easier to pick a colour, because it can be a little off. If you haven't tried power, next time your local pharmacy has a sale, consider it.

[@olliwilliams1]

This is such a stretch in my opinion. As a person of color, the names of foundation have never bothered me. My skin is brown. Cinnamon, caramel, peanut butter, sand, and almond are also brown, with distinctive shades and undertones. I feel the intent in the beauty industry by naming their shades these colors isn't to degrade anyone's race, but to give you an idea of what shade of brown you are picking up and what sort of undertones the foundation shade might have. The real issue in the beauty industry for people of color in my opinion is shade inclusivity. More often than not, people with really deep skin tones, or really light skin tones can't buy certain foundations because cosmetic companies don't consider us.
