[@Kenyah2008]

B P actually I know many of my white friends who hate being pale so they use sun beds. It is harmful as well. Black people lightening their skin is a result of white ppl making dark skin unattractive. It’s actually shunned in the Black community whereas tanning is embraced in the white.ive seen many comments saying “white women are not trying to be black” but tbh they like the aesthetic... they pump their lips, do curly perms to get hair texture and get their bums/ hips done. The white aesthetic was more popular in the 90s but since then the Kardashian’s changed the western beauty standards..which mimics BW.

[@Kenyah2008]

B P I agree tho that everyone wants what they don’t have. The few black women who bleach is a result of cultural assimilation not appropriation. Appreciate your comment tho.

This truth here!!! Do you know when I get spot it is very noticeable...I try to use natural products and dermabrasion. Hydroquinone is very harsh for the skin and its painful to me to use. Vitamin C is awesome!!!!! The sun is not your friend it will ruin you skin and give you leather face....Sunscreen!!!!!!!!

[@christopherdessources]

Yea it looks more fresh when it's even toned, regardless of skin tone

[@wwondertwin]

But you can get tested and safe products for hyperpigmentation. Like tranexamic acid, it's great for the purpose and works safely even on deep skin tones. No need to use the harsh and toxic stuff. And sunscreen! Even darker skin benefits from SPF because it will prevent hyperpigmentation caused by UV light.

[@sparkynutters690]

It’s lowkey heartbreaking the way the female rapper remains in staunch denial at the end of the video when she’s confronted with the reality of what she’s endorsing. She’s determined to forever prioritize lighter skin over potentially dying or having her own skin rot away like that one poor woman’s. Then again, her denial is of the sort that revolves around not wanting to know- as if remaining in the dark about what those creams do will shield her from the reality. She herself admitted to having had an expert explain what the product contained but she can’t remember because she didn’t want to. The imagine of Beyonce on her blouse speaks volumes- aesthetics over health. I resist judging her though, as I have no idea what it’s like to be under that kind of cultural/racial pressure. The whole concept is so sad and I just hope she takes care of herself because I truly feel for people like Jeff and the lady that damaged her skin beyond repair. She must live in pain every day, I hope at least being treated for it can minimize that. I’m sure once people are past being truly helped, they do learn their lesson and shouldn’t be shamed- just use their stories as cautionary tales for others. That said, it’s great to see some South Africans embrace their beautiful, natural dark skin and promote it proudly as we saw in that photoshoot.

[@GraceAkendo]

She unfortunately ended up dying. News says because of diabetes, but I'm thinking it's from liver and kidney damage from hydroquinone skin bleaching, seeing as she couldn't even be in the sun. Just really sad and unnecessary.

Fair or dark skin is a norm in southeast asia.. it does not determine status or familical root, even one family can have dark and fair skinned members at once as what is in your family.. but often I heard the stress is real in the Philippines particularly for ladies. I think Filipino media brainwash is to be blamed.. they always pick fair skinned female as leading celebrities. But somewhere outside in foreign lands.. often I see the fair skinned and good looking Filipino ladies date dark skinned Indian men, some of the men could also be much elder or already married, yeah we know it's always about the money.. on the other hand we also often see dark skinned Filipino ladies with white, caucasian men.. and quite many of them are in serious relationship or married to each other. So life always has its blessings in return for those who are discriminated and it is never a right thing for a mother to compare her children especially on things that comes by nature.

Everything has risks, and adults should be able to weigh risks and benefits and decide for themselves. When the government gets involved, almost inevitably things get more, not less, dangerous. Forced to go "underground" products end up being produced by unscrupulous people who don't list ingredients, start competing with other unscrupulous people to come up with stronger stuff, and don't track or care about their customers. Anyone who thinks making something people want illegal will prevent them from getting it needs to take a good look at what the so called "war on drugs" has accomplished, and not accomplished. While teaching us all to love ourselves and others just the way we are is a noble ambition, we need to also accept that some will always want to change things about themselves, and the best way to protect people is to give them accurate information, access to products that are labeled properly, the right to decide for themselves, and to get help for any complications that might arise without fear of being shamed, arrested, or fined.

It's not her as you and the rest of the world believing that light is better and so she's just trying to make you and the rest of the world more comfortable she's treated better by you and the rest of the world when your lighter is fat and I'm also tell you that it's the devil

[@s.m.3608]

Karyn Kalu Karyn Kalu True that! This makes God so sad. It's not His will that we change our skin color, hair texture, plastic surgery, all these things are sending people to hell. There are many videos on KZbin about people who had NDE, went to hell and saw many, many women there because of using beauty products. Checkout Peniel Ngonde channel

How sad....

[@MiriahV23]

@@karynkalu4964 AMEN AMEN! The best comment I have read in a long time which I have said to countless black teens and adults.

[@katemangamela1435]

I'm a very dark skinned African lady sometimes when I walk on the street men call me a blackberry but I don't care coz black is beautiful a lot of pipo laugh at my complexion but I don't mind coz I luv myself the way I am

[@bluerose4506]

kate mangamela yesss black is beautiful

[@bbgccbbbb7277]

kate mangamela You should love the way you are. America is same freaking way disgusting people.

[@katemangamela1435]

Bbgcc Bbbb true that

[@beatricekarbaumer-jones6514]

I love your comment! Continue to love yourself and carry your black beauty with pride. Also pass it on to all children who need to hear it so they are protected against shallow and manipulative people who might tell them otherwise.

[@kausarshaikh4749]

kate mangamela its painful to here all this i can understand even we Indians are going crazy to achieve lighter skin. Thank god i have stopped this.

[@rickycardenas5154]

That cop lady looks like she uses some too lol

[@tabelaskade4888]

Lmfao guys I'm a South African & that Mshoza is a washed up irrelevant rapper. Nobody even follows what she does. She's the laughing stock in my country

[@KYRA_FX]

Tabela Skade Bro yazi

[@emotionmlangeni2231]

Tabela Skade well said I'm sure this is 15-17 years back Mshoza doesn't exist anymore, I mean she's no longer popular, she was popular for only 2-3 years from my knowledge.

[@LizzNjagah]

Thank God for that..

[@Naomiluvsice]

Lizz Konstantara exactly

[@monica62888]

Interesting

[@Rooted_Locs]

Also very good point about African countries having black governments but no economical power which basically renders them powerless

[@yumiko0017]

miniimufin I agree 100%

[@Julia36D]

That’s because the black governments are busy plundering the koffers. Everything the average African fought for is completely meaningless to the politicians. They don’t care if the people starve, as long as they are rich and protected.

[@myosotismalva]

miniimufin when the apartheid ended it was only a cover, for the public image. 90% of the wealth was and is still own by the settlers. Racism isn't a legal thing on paper but it's still going strong

[@IlhaamOR]

Do you know South Africa's GDP....

[@JK-mm2mm]

you are not making scence and why do you have to put race in everything by saying dumbass blacks dumbass whites making everything in every country a mess with beauty standerds which are so wrong white is not better and also being ignorant and racist to every black person who speaks truth so don't come and say the law is protecting black people coz that aint true look at America HUH!

[@Boboelise]

The black model in the photoshoot was so incredibly beautiful.

[@peggymorin8944]

She is stunning!

[@user-di5xq2ly2v]

Yes, but I've seen darker models in the South African Vogue and Elle repeatedly. I feel it might have made even more sense to talk about this fashion shoot in the context of hairstyles.

[@drearoses1306]

AGREED

[@AshaNimo1]

@Wee Chatt yes she is you dumb minded shit. Stop being jealous just because she looks prettier than your ugly self.

[@kimberlynhughes3658]

Yes, she really is! My mother is her complexion.

[@Lax-ov1eh]

This totally broke my heart, i thought South Africans were proud black people. This is mental health pandemic for our people so sad. We need more black therapist y'all
