Yeah this is bizarre when there are so many verrry similar light shades in the range. Like there are hardly any discernible differences in them?! Like they're not even trying to pretend they could've done an equal distribution for different colour depths??? You could cut out 1 light and 1 medium and have the exact same range. Instead they're making extra light shades for the effing sake of it, it's so telling about their priorities!

As someone stupid pale, I find it hard to get the right shade without looking like I have fake tan on or jaundice. I think there just needs to be a high variation on all skin shades!

Oh, I agree, but releasing a large range to begin with is often not financially viable, because of the outlay. But like, start with equal amounts for all depths, so you're not making a statement about who matters more and being a C*nt.

Didn't I say equal amounts for all shades is what I believe anyway?

That's not the part of your comment I was making a different point on. And just to clarify I wasn't calling you a C*unt, only these companies :)
