Nubian Skin is obviously no stranger to redefining fashion, having launched one inclusive line after another.

"This is something that I’ve wanted to do for a long time, and I’m so happy to see it come to fruition," Nubian Skin founder Ade Hassan tells Bustle. "I chose styles that I would love to wear, and having a nude that matches my skin tone really is amazing."
