PALETTE: THE BEAUTY BIBLE FOR WOMEN OF COLOUR BY FUNMI FETTO, €31.80 AT DUBRAY

“I wrote Palette because black women everywhere approached me for beauty product recommendations,” says longtime beauty editor Funmi Fetto and author of Palette: The Beauty Bible for Women of Colour (Coronet). “I wrote it because brands were leaving us out of the beauty conversation. I wrote it to meet a need. I wrote it to make a point. And I wrote it to say, ‘We are here and we count.’”
