5 Best Makeup Brands For Women Of Color

Women of color have always felt overlooked in the makeup and beauty product department. Most of the mainstream companies often fail to include makeup for diverse skin tones in their product lines. We are usually left purchasing makeup from the few, sometimes smaller, companies that carter to our needs or we get one lone color to suffice for the various shades and hues we possess.

In recent years; however, there has been a shift as more luxury and high-end makeup brands expanding their product lines to include shades suitable for ethnic skin tones. If you’re tired of searching high and low for makeup that works for your skin color, then you need to check out the list below, which is compiled of the 5 best makeup brands for women of color. 

NARS

Nars is a popular brand of makeup that comes in a variety of shades that are ideal for women of color. This brand is favored by several makeup artists and beauty vloggers. Their foundations are very popular with African American women because they’re available in both matte and satin finishes. 


Their All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation comes in 20 shades, including darker hues with yellow, red, golden and espresso undertones and that is a huge plus for all shades of brown.

I personally use and love this line because of the vast shades but also because they understand undertones! I have yellow undertones where as my sister has red and believe me…that makes a difference on what shade will work for you. A line that not only understand undertones but take them into account will yield far more shades and better color matches than brands that do not. 

MAC

MAC is on this list because out of all the high-end makeup brands they were one of the first to offer a wide shade selection, suitable for diverse skin tones. Their products are also highly pigmented and formulated for long-lasting wear. Their Studio Fix Fluid foundation is available in 35 shades making it an ideal foundation to find your perfect match.
