    MAC Viva Glam Taraji P. Henson Lipglass and Lipstick now available at Nordstrom and Saks Fifth Avenue. Available until February 2018. The fashion credits for episode 11 (“Death Will Have His Day”) is still in draft but I was able to get a jump on this week’s episode.

And now, after a little searching, here’s the rest of my findings (with cheaper and black-owned alternatives where appropriate):
