Bleaching skin?

As a fellow black woman I want someone to answer me truthfully and tell me why black women do this? Light skin and dark knuckles look soooo terrible and all the other patchiness that goes with it. Why do you do it?

Bleaching skin?
its not cos they wanna be white i dont think, cos people who tan dont want to be black. its just like going to lie under a sun bed. People want to do dumb stuff to themselves.
Reply:As a white male, I'd like to know why they do it too.


I think black women look gorgeous just the way nature intended !
Reply:we lie in the sun and tan ourselves, while blacks bleach themselves! weird eh!


Ya sai..... it is a massive craze, particularly in Africa.
Reply:As a white person, I have no idea why they do that. I realize that everyone finds flaws with themselves but that is too extreme
Reply:DON'T DO IT!!!!!!!! even of you didn't want to, never make it go through your mind! ;-D i would really love to have black skin, it looks so smooth and beautiful...i want it....
Reply:Umm...your question is kinda confusing...





I'm a fair skinned black woman...and I'm the same color all over...lol





I know some people with dark knees or elbows and have used a skin lightening cream just to fade the dark areas. Poeple want to be the same tone all over their body.





As for dark skinned women trying to bleach their whole body, i think its ridiculous. Lighter skin does not equal beauty (in my opinion). We come in all different shades and tones. Thats what makes us unique. Besides...I've seen PLENTY of ugly fair skinned people, lol.
Reply:Nobodys happy woth what they've got, i find that weird. White people want dark skin and black people want lighter skin. Why can't they just be happy with their selves and not be fake from head to toe!
Reply:I never heard this before, I thought only white people wanted to change their skin colour. I think black people should stay the way they are. Trying to become lighter is as dangerous as us white trying to get darker in the tanning salons. Clearly no one is happy with their natural tan. That's sad, but that's the way it is.


Anybody knows what are the formulas or ingredients for making a skin bleaching?

Homemade Skin Bleaching Cream





A simple bleaching system consists of hydrogen peroxide containing ammonia to give a pH of 9 to 10.





Homemade Skin Bleaching Cream Recipe # 1 - Take one spoonful of bleaching powder, put it in a bottle and add a half spoon of hydrogen peroxide. Put two or four drops of ammonia in it, mix well using cotton swab or a brush. Close the lid immediately.





Homemade Skin Bleaching Cream Recipe # 2 - Take 2 teaspoons of fuller's earth mixed to a paste with one teaspoon of 20 volumes peroxide and six drops of ammonia. Apply the paste and leave it on for 5-10 minutes.





Fancy packages of cream bleaches are now available, making bleaching very simple.

Reply:Why would you do that to your skin. God intended you to be just the way you are. I am sure you are beautiful, don't do it.
Reply:If you are that concerned about it, see a dermatologist or plastic surgeon. They have all sorts of tricks up their sleeves to help a person exactly like youself. If you are concerned about the money, go to someone who gives a complementary consultation. You will be able to extract quite a bit of information just by talking to him, and it will be professional information, not stuff that laypeople come up with. Then you can decide where to go from there. Good luck!

Can someone please recommend an over the counter skin bleaching cream that works for the face please?

i need something strong and that works. last month glue was thrown on my face and my face broke out everywhere. i scrubed my face with an exfoliator everyday and it was pretty painful and my face was red(that was pretty stupid) and like a week later my face was extremely dark. i thought it were clear up but it didnt and a month later it still looks the same. i really need yaw help because school opens up in one month.





i dont look people in the eye anymore because it will bring attention to my dark face. i kno about all the dangers of using the creams and i am ready to face them. please dont ask me why i wanna do this or ask mj. the reason yaw ask questions like that because yaw probaly dont have hyperpigmentation or a face darker then your the rest of your body

Can someone please recommend an over the counter skin bleaching cream that works for the face please?
I think that you should visit your dermatoligest because she would know what to do better than anyone on here... besides what if it is just a simple thing that makes it go away? you should visit her, but if she has nothing for you, just go ahead with the bleaching. I know how being really self consious feels...
Reply:hi i would suggest using palmers , even tone fade milk. it had hydroquinone it is a skin bleaching agent reccommded by dermotologist for ppl with skin discoloration. it worked for me, it took about 2 weeks , and it help somewhat even and lighten mr skin tone. i does work but u have tobe consistant with it. i would give 3 months for best results..... goood Luck
Reply:I recommend Derma blend fade cream.You only need to put on the area that you want lighten. Derma blend also has a cover cream that you can use that will help cover up the scar while you wait for it to go away. If you are a wearer of makeup you can use the cover up makeup under your regular foundation or alone . I recommend that you us the setting power to set the makeup and the cleanser for removal of makeup.If you are not a wearer of makeup just use the fade cream and in a few days the scar will fade away.


You will be able to find it at your nearest dept. store,JCPenney, Dillard, and Macys . It is usually at the counter next to Flori Roberts cosmetics and Fashion Fair. This makeup line is for every one , it don't matter what your nationality is the products is for every one.
Reply:your problem is far from mj's vanity, it's pigmentation and should be corrected.. before you apply any skin lightening cream, make sure skin is already healed because skin lightening or fading involves a peeling or exfoliation process to remove the outermost dark layer and resurface lightened skin..





word of caution - don't buy products with hydroquinone or mercury because it'll harm your skin big time after long term use.. i'm sure you're through with everything that would harm your skin right?..

Does anyone know of a good skin bleaching cream to lighten your complexion?

A few friends of mine have used a mixture of lemon with either honey or cucumber juice, not only is this great for scars but it also lightens your complexion...I know you might want something that has faster results but if you use this everyday you should start to see results after only a few weeks. If you have oily skin, use the lemon and cucumber juice mixture...squeeze same amount of juice and cucumber juice then leave on face for 15 min then wash off. When you squeeze the cucumber slices make sure the peel is still on it so you can get the juices from the peel too. If you have dry skin then use the lemon and honey mixture and also leave on for 15 mins then wash off. If you feel discomfort with this then just try using the cucumber juice by itself without the lemon juice which might be too irritating for your skin. Good luck.

Can i buy hydroquinone 4% cream skin bleaching cream at a drugstore?
Not sure about the percentages but you can buy bleaching creams in the drugstore. I would say that the doctor would have to prescribe the bleaching cream with the higher dosage of hydroquinone cream if that is what you want.
Reply:Not sure if you can get that at a Drugstore. But Ive been using this Enlighten By Flori Roberts and you can buy that online... Its worked wonders for me. I am not about 4 shades lighter and its been 2 months.





Also- They are taking Hydroquinone off the Market b.c of its Cancer causes properties
Reply:Yes, it is.





Technically, you have to have a prescription to get 4% hydroquinone but I don't know of any doctors that actually write one. You can go to any dermatologists or plastic surgeon's office, speak w/ their esthetician and buy a product with 4% hydroquinone i.e. Obagi Clear which retails at about $90.

What main ingredient should a skin bleaching product have?

i bought a product called cancha nacar...it contains glycerine,zinc oxide,ground barley, water, oyster shell powder,lemon juice, honey,witch hazel,bentonite,papain,irish moss powder, salicylic acid.... have you used this product for dark spots? how long til u saw results? thanks a bunch

What main ingredient should a skin bleaching product have?
I think you mean concha nacar. In Mexico and other countries they use it to help fade dark spots and to have an even skin tone. I have the soap, and it helped me with my dark spots, but what helped me a lot was wearing a good sunscreen. glycerine is used in skin whitening products, as well as lemon juice and salicylic acid (it's an exfoliator). It takes about a month to see results.





Most bleaching products contain hydroquinone, but watch out because it is said that causes cancer, and it should only be used under a doctor's supervision and in small quantities.
Reply:The main ingredient should be the doctor's prescription.

Reply:vantex it can b found at macys
Reply:Skin-bleaching products work by fading those oversized freckles known as “age” or “liver” spots, lightening brown patches, evening out splotchy skin tone, and depigmenting areas that are overly pigmented due to sun exposure, hormonal imbalance, or scarring.





“Some over-the-counter skin lighteners have glamorous names such as Porcelana and Esoterica, which make them sound like cosmetics. In truth,” according to The Prevention How-To Dictionary of Healing Remedies and Techniques, “these products are drugs containing the active ingredient hydroquinone in a 2 percent concentration, says Jerome Z. Litt, M.D., assistant clinical professor at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Cleveland.





“Hydroquinone does not actually bleach the skin. Instead it works by inhibiting the skin’s pigment-producing cells, or melanocytes, which lie deep in the skin. Hydroquinone prevents the melanocytes en route to the surface from getting their full quota of pigment.





“It may take weeks, and often months, for the new, lightened skin cells to finally arrive at the surface. That means that you have to be diligent (and patient) in using your skin lightener, applying it twice a day, every day.





“By following this regimen, 80 percent of users will show some lightening effect after three to six months, studies show.”





Skin lighteners work best on people with lighter skin tone. Note that skin lighteners are not to be used on inflamed skin, bruises, birthmarks, moles, or blemishes that appear to be changing shape, color, or size. You could possibly disturb the skin’s melanin production and trigger a cancerous condition called melanoma.
Reply:You don't necessarily have to use a skin bleach, Aritstry has something called Bright Idea illuminating Essence that works wonders on getting rid of age spots. It's guarenteed to work or they willa actually refund all of your money. My grandma uses this stuff and loves it. She had a whole bunch of sun damage and age spots and now you can't even tell because it took them away. I will give you the direct link so you can read about it and even buy it if you want.

Reply:Assuming you don't mean mixing it up in your own kitchen... The best fairly inexpensive method is using a hydroquinone cream with at least 4%. I would suggest using a 10% hydroquinone cream though for better results layered with some sort of exfoliating cream like a AHAs or Retin. Stay out of the sun and use lots of sunscreen (20 or higher) for the when you do go outside. I would not suggest using it for a long time and I would suggest going in for a free consultation with a dermatologist. If your skin discoloration is from melasma then you would want to for a cosmelan treatment instead the hydoquinone method.

1/2 cup milk


1 lemon juice





Squeeze lemon juice in milk. let it stand for 5 minutes. gently rub onto your skin. let it dry. wash off with water. do not apply soap for 1 hr.





also works nicely for freckles. it generally does sting a bit when you rub so no worries. if the area becomes red(which is not likely cuz the ingredients are all harmless) wash with water.

God made him black and he will die a black man no matter what he does to himself in order to try to change his race. he doesnt look like anything. he has racial issues, trying to be white.


instead of trying to be another race, work on to better yourself based on who you really are--work out, get a cool makeover, buy cool clothes, go to school and expand your mind, and be a better person. there are beautiful people in all races--work on being that beautiful person of your race--bring out your best features and tone down your worst features, and you will look beautiful.

What are the best skin bleaching cremes?

Want to get ride of a scar and a hyperpigmented area

What are the best skin bleaching cremes?
Advise:


There are different ways to get from one shade to another. I understand the hyperpigmented area and most people of ethnicity have few products that help us out. There is ambi creme which is the most common skin lightner/bleach you can get. I do not recomment bleach. Skin lightening cremes, spot faders, and vanishing cream are all good products to use. To answer your question, i feel the best way to blend your natural skin and fade the scar out is using a creme from AVON. Don't worry i dont sell AVON just happen to know its a great product, so get if from anyone you know (friend, church lady, flea market, etc) This creme is called "banishing creme" and has results in one week. I recommend using it at night to sleep and use cocoa butter or vitamin E cremes in daytime. As for any strong skin products, avoid sun as it will lead to more discoloration and possible worse. THe product is listed below.

Why do some women use skin bleaching? Why do they wish to lighten their skin?

Well some women (can be of any culture, but mostly women of Asian cultures) prefer fair skin because they think its nice, clean, and bright. But for Asian cultures, fair skin equals higher class. (Dark skin means they have to work outdoors like on farms or whatever, hard labor.) Personally, I have fair-medium toned skin and i like it like that. I don't want a dark, tanned face. I'm not into the whole tanning fad.





BTW Asian women don't want white skin to be like White American girls. It goes back to history of Geishas and the whole social status of Asian cultures.

Why do some women use skin bleaching? Why do they wish to lighten their skin?
Maybe the same reason you like to bleach your hair.
Reply:same reason why some women get tans...








i dont get it either...
Reply:it makes no sense to me because tan is beautiful here, but in places like the middle east and asia they think its attractive to be white (because americans are?)idk.
Reply:i dont believe they are lightening their skin...but the hairs on their skin!?!...thats what i say..i never heard of someone bleaching their skin before.
Reply:They probably think they're skin is too dark and they like fair skin. The grass is always greener on the other side, huh?
Reply:Same reason some women use self tanners... check out the wiki article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_whiten...
Reply:some women do it to tone and even their skin tone. A lot of people with dark skin get white spots on their faces in the sun or are just born with an uneven skin tone, and wish to lighten some parts of their skin to get their whole face an even shade..
Reply:For the same reason women in this country go to the tanning salon. People are never happy with what they have and want to to try something different. I don't know why women who lighten their skin get so much flack and people say that they want to look white. But when white people go to tan nobody says they're trying to look ethnic. They're just trying out a new look and they just like the way pale or tan skin looks on them.
Reply:same reason light skinned people prefer to tan.





they see it on people and like the look. probably hoping for a better look in themselves
Reply:Skin bleaching is typically used to get rid of blemishes and unevenness in skin tone. On certain areas of the body, especially areas that are within folds of skin, the skin can sometimes be darker and uneven with the rest of the skin. Skin bleaching evens out the tones in these types of areas.
Reply:Some women have dark blotchy skin and feel uncomfortable with how they look. Many freckles can also be the cause of "bleaching" the skin.
Reply:I almost always like a girls with a good tan, but once I saw a girl with really white skin (no blemishes and TIGHT), she was so dang hot! Probably one of the hottest babes I've ever seen.
Reply:Its probably a cultural thing. It depends on the ethnicity of the woman, and who the woman is looking to appeal to. In Asia, women work to be fair and light skinned like American girls work to get tanned. The grass is allways greener on the other side, the dark ones want to be light, the light ones want to be dark. There is a healthy happy median.
Reply:Not sure why. Everyone should be glad of the skin color that God gave them, whether they have white, brown, yellow or whatever skin color they may have.
Reply:In some cultures having pale skin is beautiful. Like in some asian cultures you are higher class if you have pale skin so some people bleach their skin to look paler to make it look like they are wealthy.
Reply:coz u know when u use skin bleachin it not that to make it lighten but to make it kind of soft don't know y when u use bleach ur skin would be so soft after that, and besides some ppl llike to be white ,like the area that i live most of guys love fair gurls , alotta gurls do it in around my area coz their man like fair gurls
Reply:In some cultures lighter skin is seen as more desirable....or beuatiful.





Also, us women of color have to deal with hyperpigmentation (it's when some parts of the skin tend to be darker than others) so in order to get out skin tone even we use skin lightening soaps, gels, creams and lotions.





White women also use skin lightening products to even out their skin tone and make it look brighter and younger.
Reply:Some woman do this because they have acne dark spots on face that they want to lighten. Some do it to lighten the hair on their face. Some chicks think lite skin gives them a better complextion.
Reply:it might just be to even out their skintones, or like everyone is saying, same reason light-skinned ppl tan themselves. nobodys ever satisfied with themselves.....

Do u think skin bleaching should be the choice of the state and not the individual?

hurry i have a debate 2mmmorrow

Do u think skin bleaching should be the choice of the state and not the individual?
it should be a persons decision on wat they want to do with their body
Reply:if the state owns the individual or is responsible to for them, then I guess it can bleach someones skin. it would be up to the individual to protest. lol :)


What is this skin bleaching thing i read about and why do people do it ???

To start with, variety is the spice of life, such as variety in food, clothes, hairstyles, etc. Variety also abounds in nature. That is why all people on Earth belong to different types of skin colours, from white to yellow and to black. Our living environment accounts for the different skin colours we have. For example, in cold climatic regions such as Europe, inhabitants tend to have a lighter complex due to the cold weather, whereas in Africa, darker skin is better suited in the hot and humid climate.





However, many people nowadays are bleaching their skin. Why do they want do that? Is fairer skin really more appealing than darker skin?





Actually many beauticians and doctors advise us that by eating healthily, exercising and using body cream rich in Vitamin E, Aloe Vera and Collagen Elastin will produce more fascinating effects than applying mere bleaching creams.











But then there is also























Bleaching Basics:





The good news for treating blotchy skin discoloration is that regardless of the cause; be it due to old acne, bug bites, skin trauma, underarm irritation, sun damage (such as freckles, “liver spots) or hormonal reasons (melasma); your bleaching basics remain the same.


It’s important to understand bleaching terminology. Currently the FDA only recognizes hydroquinone as a “bleaching agent”. That means that many other ingredients incorporated into products must be referred to as lighteners, brighteners or whiteners.








Bleaches should be applied ONLY to the dark spot. Select areas that are well defined to bleach. This can help improve the ultimate outcome. If you do not have well defined areas to bleach, or have widespread freckling, you will want to select a skin brightener that is safer to use in more widespread areas.








Avoid applying the bleaching product to normal surrounding skin. Continued use of your bleach on normal skin will slowly lighten the regular skin tone, too.








Bleaching should be stopped when the desired effects are achieved. Otherwise, you may end up with areas of the skin that are lighter than your normal skin tone!








Sun protection is crucial. The sun will try to darken up the areas you are working so hard to bleach. A broad spectrum SPF 30 (like DERMAdoctor Body Guard Exquisitely Light SPF 30 For Face %26amp; Body) should be applied daily and can be applied on top of your chosen discoloration-busting treatment.








Bleaching is not a fast process. Depending upon how dark the area is compared to the normal skin tone, it can take as along as one year or sometimes longer.


Are my Indian friends are jealous? because they keep accusing me of bleaching my skin and wearing contacts!?

I was born in a rural village in Kerala, India and lived there until I was about eight or nine years old. I had made many friends there and we got along very well. My dad was working in Kerala so that's why my family had lived there. Both my parents are Indian, but have more of a Kashmiri/Middle Eastern background. I have light brown hair, pale skin, green eyes. We recently moved back to Kerala and now my friends keep accusing me of bleaching my skin. They keep asking me what creams I use. They also say that I wear contacts and dye my hair. They also told some other girls that I actually have black hair and black eyes, and have "darker" skin that everyone in the village. (which is ridiculous because when i was little I had blond hair and blue eyes). In front of me, they act nice, but other times they're always spreaing rumors. They also keep calling my by a different name: KAURWAKI. THe keep telling me: "too fair for your own good" What is wrong and why are they calling me Kaurwaki?

Are my Indian friends are jealous? because they keep accusing me of bleaching my skin and wearing contacts!?
Their jealous


I have actually seen a few indian women with the same coloring as you, doesnt happen to often, im meditterean background but have the same type of coloring as you and get mistaken for a light skin indian all the time by indians bc my features are indian, through experience I can tell u to be careful of friends that are two-faced, dont associate with them anymore they seem backstabbing





Point is they want what u have bc its desirable to them(think aish rai)
Reply:A lot of Kashmiri people are light like that. I'd just tell them it's the Kashmiri ancestry, and if they have issues, tell them to sod off.
Reply:I think you do understand culturally that lighter skin is desired in India.





I think that's unfortunate, because some of the most beautiful women I've ever seen were brown skinned Indian women.





In other words, it is not your skin color that makes you beautiful. Maybe you should tell them that. Assuming you don't act like you're better than them, there's probably nothing else you can do.
Reply:I know about the preoccupation with skin colour in India, Africa, and the South, and racial prejudice was certainly not invented and perfected in the United States. The racially-motivated contempt that divides Indians of the North and of the South is an age-old curse that blocks the potential of the poeple.





In the Hidden Words, Baha'u'llah says:





'Know ye not why We created you all from the same dust? That no one should exalt himself over the other. Ponder at all times in your hearts how ye were created. Since We have created you all from one same substance it is incumbent on you to be even as one soul, to walk with the same feet, eat with the same mouth and dwell in the same land, that from your inmost being, by your deeds and actions, the signs of oneness and the essence of detachment may be made manifest.'





Let your example of love in action surpass and eclipse the current example of your friends. You can attract them by your example to a higher level of cooperation that is not hindered by racial taunting and division.
Reply:From what I know of Indian culture, the British colonized India for years. They succeeded at changing Indian names into Eurocentric ones, placed their diet and their ways onto the peoples of India. Even in the U.S., women of color, Indian to African, Hispanic to Japanese, the standards of beauty are mainly Eurocentric (light eyes and straight and light hair, and the such). Even in my African-American culture, the lighter-skinned girls are always the preferred over darker-skinned girls. Personally, I have do not straighten my hair or bleach my dark skin; I love who I am as an African-American woman. Indian women are some of the most beautiful women in the world, but just as darker African women, there are few examples that reflect this (movies, singers, etc.) We must be examples for ourselves; colonization make it a bit harder. Although British superiority is gone, the mental effects are painfully there.
Reply:Yes they are jealous of you......I am the same as you......I look different to the rest of my family because of my exotic looks. I have been asked by many people what nationality I am. Actually I have dutch/french/Maori (NZ indigenous group) When I lived in Australia I have been taken for Lebanese, Portugese, Tahitian - Don't worry about it to much and just be yourself ignore them all if they continue to be horrible and lucky you for having good genes LOL

If you want to lighten them without discoloring your skin then use lemon juice. There are 2 ways to do it, sometimes I do both. First, cut a lemon in half and rub the inside of the lemon in some sugar. Then scrub your face with the lemon/sugar. Or wash your face and then squeeze some lemon juice in a glass and apply to your face with a cotton ball. It will tighten up your skin and lighten age spots.

If you stretch the skin you will see that it is the same color as the rest of your leg. I find this obsession weird and unnatural (it is a cultural disease). Let go of it.

Why can we do things to ourselves to change or alter our features but only to an extent? If a black person wants to bleach their skin...how is it different from tanning? I dont think anyone should be stopped from altering their features into what THEY believe beauty is (whatever the hell they feel it is).... im talking about little things like mascera... to make your eyelashes longer than what they naturally are, or lipstick, even hair extensions... to me they are all equivalent to bleaching. i believe people living in glass houses shouldnt throw stones.

They are purely cosmetic, and the aim is to not to change the way you look but to enhance.


When are person bleaches, they are clearly saying that "my black skin is ugly and I want light skin because light skin is pretty". They are insulting the hard work of our ancestors or people like Marcus Garvey who worked hard for the freedom and respect of our race. What was the purpose of being freed from slavery if we continue to enslave ourselves with the colonial mentality that said we were "less-than" in the first place?


Anyway, bleaching is dangerous. VERY VERY dangerous. It can cause skin cancer, and alot of the products that people use an get into the skin, poison the blood stream and affect organs such as the kidneys.


It's not worth it.
Reply:Bleaching your skin a DANGEROUS! its up to the individual if they want to do it but once they develop cancer or get those hugh black marks and bumps all over there face/body they're wishing that they were darker again!
Reply:Skin bleaching is very dangerous, (in most cases as a warning) just before you do real serious damage to your skin it will rebel.. Whereby it will either give you uneven blotches, or it gets even-darker the next time.... If you ignore that warning, then other skin disorders will start to appear and finally you can start to come down with skin cancer because you've literally killed all the life-force in your skin and the Caribbean sun is more intense because it is right overhead.....





In parts of the Caribbean, the skin bleaching trend is as-serious of a problem as anorexia or bulimia disorders in parts of the United States in that nation's constant obsession with 'thin'. Both have the same sort of ideology, one is consider "in" and one is not consider "in", and basically "body be-damned" because no matter how bad it is for you the individual in both places feels compelled to do it anyways, just to fit into society....





In the Caribbean(Esp. under the British.) Caribbean people were bombarded with the British ideology of what is "Beautiful".





As such even today Black persons having "Straight hair" (commonly called "Good hair" in parts of the Caribbean.) is still considered as "in".... And so called "knotty" or "picky head/hair" is out.. The lighter the complexion the "better".





Women who are lighter, are called the term "a Brownin". "Brown skin" or "Red" and ofcourse seem to be more glorified in young reggae artists' songs on TV..... So it makes those who don't look-like what is in the music video try to become that. I think the whole skin bleaching phenomena is part of an ideological mental disorder still carried out in the Caribbean....
Reply:I don't really get your analogy regarding meth and marijuana. You can't compare the two.....





To answer your question: It's the mindset that believes that being light is "better." That's what's wrong with it.
Reply:you can take mascara off and after u stop tanning u will get pastey again but there are no real health risks. People who bleach excessively are at a high risk to cancers of the skin. They can do it, I do not condemn anyone but it is a dumb idea.





You can use lighteners to take off spots and tone ur skin but bleaching out yourself is not gonna make it... no day not a raasclaat way...

Reply:You seem to be very good at your answer percentage (Unless you are voting for yourself-don't say you don't do it). The answer here is so obvious. forget all about all that color change BS and just be yourself. If God wanted us to all look the same, then that's what would have happened.


I'm gonna place a bet that you are a beautiful person just like you are and you should go out in the world, smile at everyone you meet and radiate your natural beauty.

There's nothing wrong with it, a lot of people do it, there are a lot of skin lightening products out there. It's just that people with dark skin are the minorities, so it seems like you're being racist, or pulling a Micheal Jackson, if you want lighter skin. It's not true, though.

Tanning doesn't make white girls look brown/black, a lot of girls just thinks it makes them look healthier.

Reply:Erm, it's kind of odd. I mean, that's just my opinion, because it's something, that I wouldn't do, most likely. I mean, sure, I'm all out for the chrome teeth, and everything, but bleaching my skin? Not something I'd do. I heard it's unhealthy for your skin, that it takes nutrients and stuff out of your skin, that makes it rough and everything. But that's what I heard.





But if I were you, I wouldn't do it. Just make some popcorn, and watch a movie. Chill, don't worry about it. One hint if you want to be white. Don't go out for a couple months. Aha. You'll be white all right. Aha.
Reply:There is nothing WRONG with it... but I don't get it.





Dark skin is beautiful
Reply:skin lightening, skin tanning, or any skin or hair care regimen all have the same objectives - better self esteem or aesthetics, better health, or to correct body issues.. they're no different from each other..





although skin lightening is more criticized in the US, a bronzed white would be less noticeable in an asian country than a fair-skinned woman.. the only difference lies in one's cultural tradition and preferences.





so each other's needs or wants should be respected.

Whats so wrong with bleaching your skin to become lighter?

its like if your parents smoke marijuana and condemn their child for doing meth... i understand that one is worse BUT they are both illegal...bottomline.





Why can we do things to ourselves to change or alter our features but only to an extent? If a black person wants to bleach their skin...how is it different from tanning? I dont think anyone should be stopped from altering their features into what THEY believe beauty is (whatever the hell they feel it is).... im talking about little things like mascera... to make your eyelashes longer than what they naturally are, or lipstick, even hair extensions... to me they are all equivalent to bleaching. i believe people living in glass houses shouldnt throw stones.

Whats so wrong with bleaching your skin to become lighter?
That's all ok but It really makes no differance when you know who your are in reality. Such as-


We are not this material body, IE; Race, color, nationality, Religion, mind, intellect, senses, job, etc. We are all eternal spirit souls, part and parcel of the Supreme Soul, also known as Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, Vishnu, etc. We never die, only this mortal body dies. This material world is not our real home, it is called Maya (illusion) and is temporary and full of misery, only one fourth of the souls come here, and the rest are enjoying blissful eternal loving relationships with our Maker named above. We fell here due to envying Gods position. He made the material world for those who want to try to live separately from Him (Which is impossible because He is actually everywhere). After many lifetimes of trying to be happy in this temporary world one becomes frustrated and board and begins to question their existence. We then seek out real happiness, and when one becomes sincere God reveals how to come back Home. Those who are intelligent, take up the process of self realization (Bhakti Yoga) which begins with the chanting of the Maha Mantra (the great mantra for deliverance from all suffering and illusion), which gives one real peace, happiness and reality. Then at the end of life they can give up all material attachments and fully surrender to God and return to the eternal Kingdom, where there is no more birth, death, old age, or disease and be eternally happy. Hope you continue to go deeper with your qustions. Thanks.
Reply:Because people are worried it will bring back life to the white supremacy mind set. In many countries, lighter skinned people were those rich enough to stay out of the sun, but black people have been enslaved, discriminated against, and looked down upon. People are worried that a new "white power" wave will emerge.
Reply:my lady why change when all the world is the same

What oral preparation is best for an instant skin bleaching?

A friend of mine is interested in such a product. She prefers to take them in tablet form and thinks that having a fairer skin makes her look her best.

What oral preparation is best for an instant skin bleaching?
Skin tone creations.com has different pills. I myself have tried the 100% glutathione, Ive been on them for about a month and I see a difference. I am the color of Eva from Americas Next top model, african american female.





Before you think Im going Michael Jackson. I had a blue peel due to sun damage (dubai%26amp; kuwait) that caused my skin to become discolored in patches. Anyway I began to use the tablets in conjuction with Papaya soap. You have to be consistent and make sure to use a sunscreen or avoid the sun if possible.





Hope this helps.


Does Palmer Cocoa Butter cause skin bleaching?

Does palmers Cocoa butter have any ingredients that cause skin lightening. How does it work ie, reduces stretch marks, dark marks. Is it safe to use on children?

Does Palmer Cocoa Butter cause skin bleaching?
Ask Michael Jackson(but not the last part of the question!!)
Reply:hi i have been using this product for ages and love it, i it don't think it causes skin bleaching but couldn't be sure,it does make stretch marks appear lighter but i use it more as a moisturiser which it is excellent for,and i have used it on all my children aged 5-11 and 1 has eczema as do i and we have been fine with it.but i would check with your doctor just in case.
Reply:Cocoa butter has been around for centurys,and is used by supermodels and actresses aswell as us everyday folk.I dont believe it has any skin lightening properties, and ive used it for years!Like vitamin e, it contains nourishing ingrediants and may help with stretch marks im not sure.I imagine it would be safe to use on children as its very pure and gentle.good luck
Reply:It doesnt cause bleaching its just a fantastic anti cellulite cream and is safe for children to use.A great skin care product,God I sound like an advert.
Reply:Palmers Cocoa Butter is pure cocoa butter, which is a natural product. It does not cause skin lightening, and is safe to use on children. It works by moisturising the skin, essentially.


Is there such thing as skin bleaching?

I mean I have vitiligo and I heard michael jackson also had that but did he use bleaching to even it out or is that just a myth? is there really such thing?

Is there such thing as skin bleaching?
He did something. I know he claims to have a skin disease but I don't believe him. He also claims he only had one surgery on his nose for medical purposes.
Reply:Vitiglio is a condition in which the immune system attacks and destroys the melanocytes (pigment producing) cells of the skin.


I don't know if Michael Jackson had it, though I highly doubt it since his skin toneis so even - I suspect he uses a Rx strengh bleaching cream - everywhere.


"Bleaching" done by interrupting the enzyme process in which the body converts the amino tryosine into melanin (the pigment)....the drug that does this is hydroquinione. It is found in prescription and over the counter strengh creams.


The results are temporary - they only last as long as you use the cream - and they take quite awhile to start working.
Reply:there is a such thing as skin bleaching. people get it done 4 a few different reasons. 4 age spots, uneven skin tone, freckles, melasma, sundamage,acne marks,Discolorations,old scars,and hyperpigmentation. michael jackson took it a little too far.

Michael.. Is that you???
Reply:call 1800-55JACKO..they will be able to help
Reply:Fcuking Wacko Jacko. You already bleached your skin and changed your face and everything a hundred times. Why again? Are you bored, did you little boys escape from Wonderland and you're lonely?
Reply:I wouldn't recommend that you bleach your skin. Some of those bleaching products contain chemicals which can enter your body through your skin.


For example, a lot of products have hydroquinone (or quinone?). I'm not sure of the truth of this, but I've heard that this chemical can cause darker patches of colour to appear on your skin after prolonged use.





It's banned in France because of fears that it can cause cancer.





So read the ingredients if you decide to use any topical product. Make sure it doesn't contain hydroquinone or quinone.





Also, maybe you should wear long-sleeved clothes, and a hat and tons of sun-block. It may take a while, but you should see improvements.... though admittedly slowly.





And stop obssessing about skin colour! (OK maybe obssessing isn't the right word). But your complexion should be the least of your worries, regardless of what anyone tells you.





Hope this helps, even just a little.

Reply:Dont mix different whitening products on your skin... Different products has different compositions of bleaching properties which my harm your skin... Stick to one product brand..use sunblock... Consult your dermatologist first....
Reply:why don't you just like yourself.....if you bleach your skin...you will look horrible....trust me...most of the time it will have and adverse affect and will blacken your skin.......your skin will not have the hue it has now....it will turn grey......it will break down the dermas layers and if you get a pimple or a scar you'll be sorry. it will not heal correctly, and it will for sure be black... don't do it.....you will have to always do it.....
Reply:nope
Reply:You can't easily bleach your skin color. The pigmented skin isn't just the top layer.





Why not love yourself for the way you are. Dark skin is sexy to some people. And look at the bright side... you don't get sunburned easily and you're not prone to skin cancers.
Reply:don't do it. Be glad with what you have.
Reply:Your blood is red like every other human, skin colour is your own pride a heritage if you like that you should be proud of. As a caucation man my wife is a dark filipino who wanted to be whiter after she discoverd that it is my choice to see her natural skin colour she is not so self conscious about it true love will set you free when it comes to the colour of your skin be proud my freind

I need to find skin bleaching pills. or creams.?

no websites. i need to find a local store say walmart or target or w/e with skin whitening pill or creams that work FAST (and are cheap)


got any ideas?


FAST AND CHEAP AND WHITEN YOUR SKIN!


remember local stores =]


thankies.

I need to find skin bleaching pills. or creams.?
use diluted lemon juice mixed with egg white as a mask; or use mask paper dipped with whitening toner for 15 min. or so. if you can get some pearl powder, add it to the mask.


either way it won't be too light, unless you go under specialized procedures like Micael Jackson. lol


goodluck

Pretty intense question about skin & bleaching?

I have this one scar that imsoo sick of i finaly just decided heck why don't i just try bleaching it..


i mean with clorox bleach pen thats actualy intended for clouthes


I just want quick results


i want to leave it on for 10 second then quickly wash it off


do you think it would work

Pretty intense question about skin %26amp; bleaching?
cocoa butter lotion or more preferably pure cocoa butter - that solid stuff that melts at skin temperature is all you should be needing on a scar - and all that does is make it more elastic and flexible.





It just is not an immediate thing to disappear.


But I will give you one good hint and even this is not something you get quickly as like through a drive thru window.





If you can put out of your mind the thing that gave you the scar - it will disappear faster. as if the body forgets just as fast as you forget about it .... so obsessing about it just makes it endure! -- dont talk about the accident or operation or whatever that caused it. Try to move away from a past that only now exists in your mind and the physical manifestation itself will fade along with the memory
Reply:NO...omg your going to make your problem way worse!..i know having a scar sucks...but it doesn't mean your life is over...they sell alot of lotions to make it appear softer and less noticeable...try bio-oil...good luck
Reply:no. it won't work. trust me. you will actually have a better chance at making it worse, because bleach burns the skin.
Reply:No, it will definitely harm your skin. Not a good idea. But you want to lighten the scar so that it fades?


First i would recommend a dermatologist... but if you want to look up some products


Try this product

Do skin bleaching creams have any negative long-term affects?

I wanted to test try one but a close friend said they can dama ge skin (Michael Jackson[lol]). Is this really true?

Do skin bleaching creams have any negative long-term affects?
no


no negative effect if u use mild bleach
Reply:well bleaching you skin is definatly not safe or healthy or natural!!! it is just asking for problems, and it would proably not be permanate unless it gets so far down like a tattoo, other wise the bleaches skin would just eventualy come off, but none the less its not safe and its very harmfull.
Reply:I know that it can cause chemical burns if it's too strong.





Changing your skin color through bleaching or tanning is (or at least can be) a dangerous process.
Reply:Michael Jackson got his done by surgery, but yes, most creams do have lasting effects. Most have mercury in them, which can sink into the skin and actually lower your IQ by about 4 points for every milligram of the crap. It's all in the Wikipedia article. Feel free to check it yourself. I probably got the number wrong. I think it's higher...
Reply:NO, NO, and again NO!!! You will NOT look like Michael Jackson by using a bleaching cream. I am using bleaching cream now with a face cleansing bar (Cetaphil) and I do not look like a ghost!!!!! You will be just fine and I have seen great results!!!





P.S.





This is ONLY if you are speaking about an over-the-counter fading cream used for skin discolorations, such as Ambi.
Reply:negative long term effects happen to people ONLY if they use unsafe skin lighteners that are with hydroquinone, mercury and steroids because these ingredients can cause skin cancer, poison the bloodstream, etc.. safe formulas contain kojic acid, licorice, papain, which are natural plant extracts...





plus, you need to use high spf 50 or better sunscreen to protect your fresh new lightened skin from sun damage and further darkening..





MJ's case maybe started from pigmentation problems but escalated to vanity... his is a different case.. not all who want a lightened skin wants to be like mj.. skin lightening AND skin tanning have the SAME objectives - better self esteem or to correct uneven skin tone.. much like how you take care of your skin, hair, weight, etc. to look and feel better.. absolutely, there's nothing wrong with that.. the only difference lies in one's cultural identity and tradition.. so let's respect each other's wants and needs..





if you choose safe skin lighteners, sunscreen, and take 500mg vit. C daily, you can't go wrong.. i've done it.. here's a good source for safe and potent skin lightening products -
