On June 18th, in a show called Woman's Hour on BBC, Naomi Campbell shared about her first time modeled on cover of Vogue no.6 in 1988.
When she came to the studio, a makeup artist said that they hadn't know Naomi was black. Then they had to mix up the colors of the foundation to create a "grey" makeup for her. The model then saw herself on the cover of the famous magazine, she couldn't hold back the tears and started to cry.
She said: "I dreamed to be on the cover of this magazine. It's Vogue Italy. But I didn't want to look that grey."
After that unsatisfied memory, Naomi has always brought her own foundation to every shooting. So that no makeup artist could recreate a makeup that doesn't fit her real skin color.

Naomi continued to share her old stories of many times she got an unequal treat. Every time she speaks up about the racist issue, she always got criticism as harsh and mistreat to others.
