Frankly I don't even understand why black women wear foundation. It just looks bad on them. No black women I've known has ever worn a full face of the stuff. It's literally designed as a solution for white women's skin issues. You don't have to buy something just because everyone else is.

Man is the creature who does not know what to desire, and he turns to others in order to make up his mind. We desire what others desire because we imitate their desires
