This is the first time I ever heard of a different set of beauty products for black people. I guess I’m just an ignorant guy but are lipsticks and makeup different for black people?

Different skin tones might make a difference. I think it’s mostly hair care products.

Definitely the hair care products are different due to hair texture. I think that’s what this article is about though it’s not entirely clear.

I think the biggest seller(or stolen item evidently) is hair weaves so black women can have hair dos like white women which of course would be cultural appropriation if it were reversed.

Perpetual grievance.

Yeah, different skin tones for makeup, and really different things for hair.

It is make-up, but mainly hair products I think.

Well there is a different color palette, and specialty products. There are also products designed to deal with certain hair types, and skin conditions. Then there’s the marketing.
