I feel the need to spruce up my image so I went looking for places online that offered cosmetics that adhered to my non-white complexion. Well I was pleasantly surprised to find two cosmetics companies that were started by South Asian women that addressed the issues women of colour experience when trying to find cosmetics – that most makeup is made for white women. How nice. Here are the links to both of them.
1. Thevi Cosmetics
2. Vasanti Cosmetics
The site that had linked these two cosmetics site also had videos up for South Asian women on how to create different eye makeup techniques. I am definitely going to try these out…as soon as I get better eyeshadow. Here is the link to the site.
