And only three shades of concealer. Who does that in this day and age?

The same stuff the women wear. You just go to the makeup aisle and grab the same stuff a woman with your skin tone would buy. It doesn't burn your skin or anything. It's just makeup.

I mean, black hair is different to other hair, but I'm not an expert on how that works with dye.

HopperUK posted:I've had men ask me very seriously if lady hair dye will work on their hair. That one can actually be legit. Sometimes. Hair dye is more complex as beard hair in particular can be quite the bastard to dye. They make special dye specifically for beards given that regular hair dye sometimes just won't take. Len posted:A co-worker of mine dyed her hair and it turned out terribly and she swears it's because the ethnicity of the woman on the box wasn't the same as her. Again, that's a sometimes thing. Not matching the ethnicity on the box doesn't matter but there are special dyes for some ethnicities as their hair just won't take normal dyes sometimes. Mostly generic dyes work on pretty much everybody but, you know, mostly. You also randomly get people of any race with hair that just won't take dyes at all or who make the dye turn unexpected colors. Hair dye is way more complex than it seems on the surface as the majority of the time you can just grab any random, regular dye and it'll work. Just, you know, mostly.

flatluigi posted:didn't look very hard, that's for sure Look, they went down to their local supermarket and spent about three seconds in the cosmetics aisle - any longer and people might have thought they were gay or something - and they didn't see any wolves or fires or slabs of meat on any of the advertising, so clearly there's no makeup for men.

Prokhor Zakharov posted:How does Bethesda manage to gently caress up literally everything these days? In other dumb-gaming-company news, WotC just released the latest set of Magic:The Gathering cards. A box of 36 packs retails for about $100, but they also came out with a special "Mythic Edition" featuring alternate art for some rare cards. 24 packs, but $250, and only 12,000 boxes were printed. Instead of selling these through stores, Hasbro sold them through ebay. Only the software they used for their backend was hosed. Obviously they'd want to stop selling them after 12,000 people bought them. But every time the inventory counted down to 0, the software rolled over and reset the available inventory to 12,000 again. Over 40,000 people purchased them. Hasbro "No, we can't print more." But what they're offering those people is a printed, uncut, foil (rarer and shiny) sheet of all the rares in the set. Which is pretty much what people were buying the boxes for, except without packaging, and without being able to play the game with those cards.

I'm not sure whether this qualifies as marketing, but the online retailer Zavvi just sent me an email telling me that I had won a competition, and the prize was flights to Madrid, a stay in a 4* hotel, 2 tickets to the UEFA Cup final, and £250 spending money! Hooray! Unfortunately, they also sent this email to everyone on their mailing list. The responses on Twitter are a hoot, and I can only imagine that the poor schmuck who clicked the wrong button is now puckering their arsehole so badly that it's chewing a hole in their chair.

Wait, they’re giving people who can’t get the box sets something even rarer in in addition to a full refund? It’s a fuckup, no doubt, but that seems like a generous consolation prize.

You really have no idea about the amount of entitled whining nerds can unleash when things don't go their way? By doing it this way, everyone technically gets the cards and it doesn't F up the balance of the game by putting too many of a given card into circulation. All things considering this a a pretty good move

Are these the three shades? Incredible. They really didn't do any market research at all. I'm not a big makeup person but even I know that Fenty Beauty and Jeffree Star are the top brands because they acknowledge people with brown and black skin exist and deserve makeup too.

Yeah, there is a lot about this that screams edgy morons. I'm kinda waiting for their next marketing video where they challenge the head of Fenty to a street fight. I suspect the papers will describe the beating Rihanna gives them as savage but well deserved.
