MAC Cosmetics Negative Comments Makeup PHOTO

Happy Friday, an overwhelming number of beauty experts are attacking a woman of color’s lips on MAC’s Instagram.

The photo’s from the cool girl-friendly Ohne Titel runway show, which was excellent. But online, good will toward women is alive and kicking. Today, your daily ignorance takes the form of countless comments on a majorly buzzed about MAC fashion photo. It’s this totally run of the mill picture of a woman with a deep royal purple-y gloss on her full lips, and it’s gathered all the terrible people in the same spot. Here, see how these ~~human garbage~~ awareness spreaders continue the grand tradition of being shocked, disgusted, and amused by the size of this woman’s mouth. Lovely, welcome, and needed.

Also great, this one picture of a stunning face has ignited a good old exchange of racial stereotypes too. Another day, another way to make it about white people. Encouragingly, numerous folks are knocking down the haterade with positivity. Some are talking black erasure and citing Kylie Jenner’s face as proof that full lips are A.O.K. on Caucasians but not when they’re naturally occurring on women of color. Anyway, cue “Formation,” and if you want this shade of purple MAC can probably help you with that. Sidenote: MAC has always offered an in-touch selection of foundations, so at least women have that?

We’d love to finish this, but we had to take the train to Coney Island and fling our Macbook Air in to the sea.

This article would be very helpful if you included screencaps of the offending comments, including the ones from the “Bueaty Experts” (if they actually are prominent on social media, I’d like to know so I can avoid). As it is, there’s over 25,000 comments and all the most recent ones are positive.

I read about this earlier today…WTF is wrong with people?

In one of my less-than-stellar dating decisions, I once dated a white man (for a while, too, this wasn’t a one time thing… I dated him for years, and this was hardly the worst thing he ever said) who told me he wanted the “DSL” on white women, or that they were acceptable on me, because I was a paler Latina. For this reason, his most-desired famous woman was Angelina Jolie. She had ample DSL. But he thought black women with big lips were only good for a temporary good time and otherwise unattractive.

What is the DSL, you ask?

Why, the DSL are Dick Sucking Lips.

I’m embarrassed to admit I almost married this man. But in my defense, I was in a terrible state at the time, stupid and young and with the self-esteem of a box of rocks… maybe two on a good day.

He was pretty gross for a lot of reasons. I thank the Powers That Be to this day still, that another woman intercepted him and turned his head. Although I wouldn’t wish that misogynist bastard on anyone.

Anyway, this article made me remember that conversation. And it just made me angry and kind of nauseous again.

  I worked with a guy who, after I had raved about her in ‘Gia’, told me that he couldn’t watch Angelina because he couldn’t ‘get past her lips’.
  I was a little shocked and annoyed.

Kylie Jenner gets lip injections: “wow, flawless, YAAAS, work it, fierce”

Black woman has naturally plump lips: “(racism)”

Just a tip: the term “human garbage” has a long history of use by racial supremacy & eugenics groups.
