It was immediately clear to their audience that the image was digitally edited. At least 2 of the arms were altered to look darker, apparent by the uniform coloring of the palms. Not only is it dishonest to fake product colors, but this act was essentially digital blackface. Two days later, they re-shot the image using 4 different people in an [apology post](https://hypebae.com/2018/8/becca-cosmetics-response-skin-love-campaign-photoshop-controversy). 10 | 11 | ![](/becca.jpg) 12 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /_list-problematic/ysl.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | list: secondary 3 | company: 4 | name: "YSL" 5 | hashtags: 6 | - anti-blackness 7 | --- 8 | 9 | The cosmetics branch of French fashion house Yves Saint Laurent is owned by L'Oréal.

Rahmé is alleged to have called Black people “thieves” and alerted security with a code word when dark-skinned customers came into the store. The Latina former employee said she was not allowed to serve white customers because of her complexion. When the two employees brought up their issues to Rahmé, Rahmé fired them and accused them of stealing.

In January 2015, a former top scientist [sued the company](https://www.scribd.com/document/251874636/Complaint-Meyers-v-Revlon) after his dismissal. Delpani’s disgusting comments were [noted in the suit](https://nypost.com/2015/01/01/revlon-ceo-rips-blacks-jews-us-bias-suit/), claiming “Jews stick together,” that he “could smell a black person when he entered a room,” and that Americans (Delpani is Italian-born) were “small-minded” and “dirty.” The case was “amicably resolved” in March 2015. Delpani denied any allegations and continued to serve as CEO for another 11 months, winning [industry marketing awards](https://wwd.com/business-news/marketing-promotion/beauty-inc-awards-marketer-jill-scalamandre-lorenzo-delpani-10293350/). 12 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /_list-mena/aniise.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | --- 2 | list: primary 3 | company: 4 | name: "Aniise" 5 | url: 6 | shop: https://aniise.com 7 | Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Aniise/b/ref=w_bl_hsx_s_be_web_7633781011?ie=UTF8&node=7633781011&field-lbr_brands_browse-bin=Aniise 8 | social: 9 | ig: aniisebeauty 10 | yt: channel/UCOUCsqhtR6Y9KDhTQ8r622Q 11 | fb: aniisebeauty 12 | tw: aniisebeauty 13 | type: Skincare 14 | description: "feeding the skin from the outside" 15 | product: 16 | name: "Acne Botanical Masque" 17 | description: "including actual herbs instead of plant extracts" 18 | url: https://aniise.com/collections/frontpage/products/acne-botanical-masque 19 | second: 20 | name: "avocado and apricot face oil" 21 | url: https://aniise.com/collections/frontpage/products/anti-aging-face-oil-with-apricot-avocado 22 | owner: 23 | type: owner-founder 24 | title: "CEO" 25 | flag: "🇮🇷" 26 | name: "Sheida Kimiabakhsh" 27 | url: https://aniise.com/pages/about-us 28 | --- 29 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /_scss/_list-page.scss: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | .page-upper { 2 | background-color: $color_black;
