I wasn't sure what flair to use for this, but I assume it's appropriate.

I can't stand when people make these kinds of faces for darker skin tones. I get that if you are VERY new to custom makeup, you dont particularly know how to colour things properly, but come on now..

My problem isn't even that these faces typically have very eurocentric features, but with the colouring omg..

The face has absolutely no nose highlight, just an orange blob in the middle of it, and the lips are SO light. There is a way to tastefully make faces for darker skin tones, and then there is this. I don't know whether it's offensive or not, but it peeves me.

And this isn't exclusive to regular servers (where beginners often play) either. This screenshot was taken in a pro server, and I've seen it happen often in master servers, too.

I always see people use the same excuse of "Well, I dont know how to make faces for darker skin." Then, learn or use a tutorial if you really want to use darker skin tones.

And I can admit that you dont always have to adhere to the norm. I have a lot of darker models that have very bright highlights for trad goth facepaint looks.

I think all skin tones are beautiful, and I use a lot of different skin tones myself when making outfits, but I try to be as mindful and tasteful as possible. It bothers me when people don't even try to make it good.

TL;DR I dislike when people don't use darker skin models in a distasteful way.
