Of course, one wonders why it took Crayola so long to release skin tones. The criticisms toward the crayon company for only having one skin-tone color called “Flesh” that was, you guessed it, just basically white-people-pink have long been leveled against the crayon company. To rectify that oversight, in 1992 Crayola introduced 8 crayon colors, ultra-clean washable markers, colored pencils, and washable paint. With 24 new colors, there are now 40 skin tone crayons. At least they’re making good on those criticisms by doing a Fenty-like launch of crayon that can help kids across the world color themselves the way they look, or at least, close to it. So that’s nice! You can pre-order these crayons at Walmart, right here.
