Beauty comes in many shades (色度). But some women find their shades not receiving enough attention in the cosmetics (妆品) industry.
Balanda Atis wants to end that. She is a chemist in Research and Innovation at the cosmetics company—L'Oreal, USA.She wants to create makeup that works for all women. As an African-American, she knows from her own experience how difficult it is for women of color to find makeup right for their skin.
So, Balanda Atis and other L'Oreal chemists began to explore. "We had the opportunity to travel across the U. S as well as internationally, such as South Africa, to make sure that the shades that we were creating were suitable for a large range of skin colors. "
"What we found is that you can use a really special colorant (着色剂), called ultramarine blue. And ultramarine blue is a truly clean, vivid, bright, rich color that allows you to go deeper, but as you go deeper, you're still able to have a very natural color to the skin "
Atis says many African-American families expect their children to become doctors or nurses. But she knew from a very early age she didn't want a career in medicine. The chemist says she always had a passion for science. She is happy that she married her love of science to cosmetics. She shares her joy with teenagers by giving talks at schools about the importance of science. For Atis, being able to relate science and beauty together is just fun.
