“For example, as an African-American woman, I can rarely find makeup that matches my exact skin tone. Though cosmetics companies have gotten a lot better at adding more diverse colors to their lines, I still most often have to buy two shades and mix them together to get a match.”

Oh the humanity. Well at least she doesn’t have to deal with the contradiction of being “high yaller”. I mean what if you are a lighter skinned African American and able to claim a portion of privilege but still cannot find the right makeup shade? How arfel would that be?
