MAC Cosmetics got a slew of unexpected racist comments on its Instagram page after posting a picture of a black model’s lips with its lipstick.
The model was wearing MAC’s “Matte Royal” lip color at the New York Fashion Week on Wednesday night, Feb. 17.
One user commented, “[Racist slur] lips?” While another wrote they were “fish lips,” and another person said, “Holy [expletive] I thought this was Jay Z.” Added another: “Wtf r these lips.” There were more, but they were deleted.
The comments were first captured in a screenshot by Mic.com editor Ashley Alese Edwards.
