I've posted before about her cosmetics. I'm NW45 and I ordered several of her kits from QVC -- Concealers and eyeshadows. The "dark" concealer was way too light and the eyeshadows were not pigmented enough for me and appeared chalky....So it seems if you're of a certain hue, her colors won't work but if you're in the light to medium range, they look fantastic.
On her QVC shows, she's admitting they won't work on very dark-skinned AA women; but do look good on "lighter-skinned African-American or women of color".

Urrr, I don't think so. Have you seen "Make Up Your Mind". There is one Naomi look and one Alek look. I hardly think that counts as a makeup artist for women of color. I love Nars' aesthetic, don't get me wrong.

It's true, there majority of women in Make Up Your Mind are caucasian...but, the whole NARS line is in my mind, designed with WOC in mind (as well as caucasians of course!)...I mean, in how many cosmetics lines do you get colours like "Exhibit A" ? That's why I mentioned him.
Also, he has used WOC as the faces of his colour stories in the past too...Naomi one time, and the women was crowned Miss Japan (I have no idea what her name is).

It's excellent. I own mostly all of her products (not eyeshadows) and they are FABULOUS!! Her lip fence and lipgloss duo (B- Sexy is the one to try. Its TOO Sexy guarenteed!) are my ABSOLUTE favorite lip products of all time. (Sorry MAC) I use her eyelash curler everyday! You should try it if you don't use them or like them. It's totally different. Definitely try it!

OMG Dee Dee Kelly!!!!!!! My mentor forever and ever!!! She worked at the store that I started at (Columbia Nordstrom, MD) and when I say the woman is AMAZING...Oh my gosh....She always wore 7 to 8 eyeshadows blended to perfection. She always had a thousand makeover appointments, I can't even explain how amazing she is!!! We are so proud of her!
I interviewed Sam Fine a few weeks ago, that man is no joke. And SEXY!!! Yummy!!! LOL. Here's the interview if you want to read it..
