Beautiful African American women, your skin is kissed by the sun. God gave you that wonderful melanin in your skin, to preserve you. Love your beauty, and be proud!!!
@ prasert 85. You are a African-American woman? Who's talking negatvitly about being an African- American Woman? AND, you're defending tanning? Ohhhhh! Wolf in sheep's clothing!
I'm a black woman that uses skin whitening cream and it's the best decision I have ever made. I walk down the street without fear of getting bananas thrown at me and not once have I been wrongly impounded at the zoo.
Another great tip is ditch the weaves and shave your hair right down to the baldy waldy scalpy scalp. Wearing a wig means I don't have to spend 4 hours in the morning trying to prize several combs outta my hair. I once lost a purse for 3 whole weeks b4 I found it in my forehead fuzz
some people prefer lighter skin,others prefer darker! so what, its personal preference! u have no right to tell someone to adhere to your "beauty ideals", many white people lighten to for lighter skin. Chemical peels can also be considered lightening! let people do what they want, its always bitter darkies who have issues with it! stop trying to force people to accept your opinions,nobody cares! do you and let others do them! stop talking shit out of envy. live UR OWN life
Who is the ignorant person posting these videos.. You obviously know nothing about skin colour... If you are light brown in skin colour as Rhianna is when you go to a country that is not as hot as yours or you don't go to the beach as much as you used to your skin gets lighter .. it is your body's way of ensuring that you get enough Vitamin D.. that is why in cold countries black people are vitamin D deficient. I am just like her and the same thing happens to me. IGNORANT PEOPLE.
@rockywazzzz tanning is the natural procces when u go out in the sun( tanbeds and self danners are trying to immitate that procces) and skin bleach and skin bleach pills dont fall from the sky u know!
@MrFilipFabulous im not talking about regular tanning. Dur Dur.. im talking about Tanning Beds and you can also naturally bleach your skin with lemons. and guess what they fall from the trees
@rockywazzzz actually they DONT bleach ur skin really, they beach out discolourations and perhaps if u have a suntan lemons might also lighten complection, um using lemons to bleach my acne scarring but it keeps it down to my naturall skin colour, however i neevr noticed it bleaching my suntan...
Your skin has pores, ANY type of chemicals that you put on your skin can be damaging to your internal system. No tanning is NOT natural. My being in the medical field, I've seen all types of effects from tanning!
@meandmyself364 ^This is untrue. There is a safe way of doing things. The skin may have pores, but its not the pores that get affected by the product. Its the melanin. melanin determines you're skin color. And what these products do is suppress and minimize the amount of melanin your skin produces. There are natural ingredients that these product use. Skin lightening is not tanning. Tanning increases the amount of melanin while skin lighteners decrease it. Tanning is unsafe due to other factors.
@Annie236005 Annie some things that you've stated, I already know. As a medical professional, I know that melanin determines the color of the skin. Like I've stated before, it has pores, that breathes every, substance/ chemical. ANYTHING that's done or overdone to the body can be harmful. This includes tanning
@missbingbong911 you're more ignorant, tanning damage your skin and when fair skinned people want to be darker they're looking down on their natural tone which is as bad as bleaching
really ? ok tell me what exactly is so much more natural about tanning than about bleachin. people buy creames to get tanned and people can use lemon juice to bleach their skin. let's see if there is a non-racist explananation of what you wrote ??!
@Pimpczar2011 there are ppl from the island who are light skin ,. there half whites an ppl from differ race living in the island . so plz educated yurslef on it . she did bleach her skin
Some of you will say that light-skinned african american celebrities don't bleach their skin, when infact they do. Not ALL but most do. It's to appeal to not only black communities, but all of the others as well. When rihanna first hit the scene she was a lovely sunkissed brown (Pon de Replay) compare one of her more recent videos (California King Bed) & You can see a major difference. She's still beautiful regardless. But some of you refuse to accept the truth. She's definitely lightened.
@TheLele234 Someone talking sense thank you! People need to stop trying to justify why skin lightening is a good thing when they don't realise that it actually isn't good for the skin.
@TheLele234 No they don't, It's the lighting check the vid for "What's My Name" she how dark she looks there ? Lighting plays a part in how dark/light black people look.
LOL. Did you just say how "dark" she looks in What's My Name???, WRONG. especially since she's outside in natural lighting as well. Umm, Compare What's my name to If It's Loving That You Want Drastic difference. I'm not gonna prove my point to anyone, some see it, and some don't.
@TheLele234 Are you trying to argue she looked "light" in"What's My Name" ? If Rihanna's color in "What's My Name" is light, then wtf was Drakes color in the video pale white ? compare her color in "What's My Name" To her child pics, you will see it's about the same. And by the way you haven proven anything. "It's Loving That You want" was shot on a beach, of course sh is gonna get tanned, look at Allyiah's video for "Rock The Boat" do you she how darker she was than her normal color.
Just because people want to lighten their skin does not mean they want to be white. I know many black people that do not think dark skin is beautiful. I've seen people with dark skin get made fun of. Many black people wish to have chris brown's skin color or alicia keys skin color. Dark skin is never glamorized, light skin is.
In REALITY they don't like themselves they want 2 be so white That is A SHAME. She looks like she just came out of GROUND ZERO. Them bitches need to get PUNCH IN THE MOUTH like LIL B in Berkley CA. The Black Culture wonders why other cultures don't fully respect (Black, African American).
Who cares? Alot of us are robing....everyone thats robing too dont spend too much time in the sun....lol...big up all a mi bleacha dem...lol....best to bleach when your in the cold...lol
of course we all know that being in a different climate can change your complextion, but not like that the girl looks almost white, u guys seem really naive just look at her that does not look natural...i can bet that most of the persons that r saying its the climate are from the caribbean well and i am too, im looking really light right now but not like that...I WOULD CONSIDER MYSELF HER BIGGEST FAN SO IM NOT BEING BAIS,I JUST HAVE BASIC COMMON SENSE.
I'm from Barbados and have lived in the us for many years, but I'm no longer the complexion I was in Barbados and I now appear lighter than people that were lighter than me growing up. It is called the sun stupid!!
@rasbados actually no. rihanna did not get lighter,her conplexion completely changed and looks grey! thats a sign of serious misuse of lightening chemicals.she went from being a light skinned girl to having a grey complexion.look at her next to katy perry and katy perry looks very pale yet rihhan looks grey.she did bleach her skin
@rasbados no offence but u kinda sound like the stupid one, rihanna is almost white im sure you dont look like that dont be so naive, im a huge fan but even a blind person can see that she using something on her skin
@enissac You do understand that a picture doesn't always show the correct complexion of a black person? Light skin people don't bleach, don't forget that darker people bleach because of the feeling of inferiority. I have been blk all my life and have never seen people of her complexion bleaching. If you knew what you were talking about you could view a picture of her father who has a deep tan and see he is naturally very light, I should know because I just came back from Bdos with two tone skin.
SHE'S NOT BLEACHING. SHE'S FROM THE CARIBBEAN WHERE THE SUN BEATS DOWN ON U. WHEN SHE MOVED TO A COOLER CLIMATE HER SKIN RETURNED TO THE NORMAL UGLY COLOUR. MAKE UP AND CAMERAS ALSO MAKE BLACK PEOPLE LOOK LIGHTER THAN THEY REALLY ARE.
ok ppl.. you know what the real ignorance in you all.. stop being so righteous. if someone wants their skin to light then let em.. it's just a part of beauty cosmetics.. if someone light skinned wants to tan then let em too.. and here's a fact: Tanning your skin is more RISKY than Lightening you skin...
@iLLusion625 but lightening creams reduce the amount of melanin in the skin...melanin is naturally found in people with brown skin and reduces the risk of skin cancer. You do the math.
@InthemirrorUK math..? haha don't worry darling i'm good at it.. good dear.. lightening is just a part of cosmetic beauty.. it's kinda dangerous if you're using fake, cheap product and inappropriate ways... get it.?
@iLLusion625 Tanning is more risky because you tan yourself if you have pale skin - which has a low melanin count.... I think someone uses skin lightening products and is trying to justify the idea. By the way, just because a product is expensive it doesn't mean it won't harm you.
@InthemirrorUK i'm asian... and most of us has beautiful skin.. and those asian who has tan or darker skin lighten their skin and it goes hella well.. we've been doing this since the start of beauty cosmetics.. come on.! don't b so ignorant.. lightening or tanning is part of beauty cosmetics, remedy, ritual or whatever we call it.. if you want to ur color to stay dark then ok.. no one's really care. but let those ppl who wants to b more glowing or lighter.. duh..
Respond to this video... yes... most of the expensive and popular product are proven and tested.. period..! and yes.. cheap products can harm you're skin.. as plain simple as it is.. got it?.
Obviously she is bleaching because she has always been a light brown complextion all through out her life, and now all of a sudden she is pale ghost like pale.
Well, Im black. During the summer Im brown. In the winter Im high yellow.... like really light.... but thats me. Im sure she bleached because she doesnt go from dark to light like summer/winter. She just went from dark to light, and stayed light, and keeps getting lighter.
ARE YOU BLACK PEOPLE IN HERE STUPID? She did not bleach her skin. The is a video that edited a picture of her face to make it lighter. The person that posted this video isn't even BLACK. It was on MSNBC. Have you seen the person's FACE?
Society and the media does this. Most models of colour in magazines are very light skinned with straight hair and mostly caucasian features; and a lot of times women of colour are seen in jungle settings and depicted as wild animals. I notice this a lot in fashion magazines. White is the only complexion that is 100% acceptable.
@cupcakexrider Irish people are not white either dumb ass. Listen to one of her interviews and see how she talks. You think it's her singing style but it's actually her voice.
@MyAnthony9 lol dude. you just made yourself look like an idiot. what does WHITE come from there is no island that is called WHITE for WHITE people caucasian people come from EUROPE. where there is english italians IRISH Jewish people. their nationality might be different but SKIN color tends to be the same. and around the same HUE. so you cant go up to a person and say he's not WHITE he's irish because it doesnt make a difference. his SKIN is category in the caucasian skin. jackass
@cupcakexrider actually you did. There's still a difference between being white (american) and irish. Skin color doesnt mean anything. Someone can be black and still american so youre the dumbass
@MyAnthony9 listen dude. white american is not a nationality white people in america ancestors come from europe every single white person you know i family came from EUROPE. please...please.. please learn your history. seriously. and wtf are you talking about someone can be black and still american? thats called african american. idiot
@MyAnthony9 they can call themselves that if they want to. a person that has came from a ireland to american can call themselves irish american and their kids too. its a preference. a black person can call them selves AMERICAN without the african. seriously dude do you know what you're even talking about anymore. lol
its not only african...its indian,asian,latino,european,!!! EVERYONE! this has nothing to do with a complex, SOME PPL PREFER LIGHT SKIN!! SO WHAT! just like white women go burn in the sun to look crispy..u dont judge them? and some white women want big lips and big butts..but u dont judge them! but when a culture prefers lighter skin on a woman its bad? THAT SHOW IT WAS EVEN BEFOR THE WHITE MAN CAME! ppl want light skin! u can never change it
@markee871 basically..i believe if you're black and you're not happy with your skin color to the point you bleach you're skin to look more white and light that means you hate yourself and you're a self hating person. you see something wrong the color brown./black and you dont approve of it. you've been brainwashed to believe that lighter skin is more beautiful.. by who you might ask. :) white people. you believe that they are better than you and you as a brown skin person want to be just as good
I think its the make-up seriously. I'm not sure that many are bleaching their skin well lil kim most def. but rhianna is probablly wearing lots of dimensioned toned makeup that spray stuff.
Oh come on you guys, that's all due to make-up, lighting and color contrasting. I'm from the carribean, and after returning home from america I became darker after only 2 weeks; upon returning to America it took me just a month to get as pale as I am now. When I'm in Puerto Rico, my hair gets blonder / nappier and my skin gets noticeably darker. in America my skin gets lighter, hair darkens and loosens.
Climate is everything, people. She's not bleaching anything.
@aMadMansMusic So why she gets lighter ?? Its not a climate problem, Im black and Im not dark, more like caramel and in winter yes Im lighter but not lighter like her, she's not living in alaska so why she will be so light ?? she looks white, you can look pale but not white like a white person...
It's probably makeup. She was never really dark to being with. I would have liked to see a before and after side by side. Maybe she had a tan in previous pics. I tend to get darker during the summer and really pale during the winter (my family says I look sick sometimes). I can't help it though, that's just the way my skin is.
your stupid, ppl from the caribbean go to america or europe and always come back looking lighter than they did before they left it's called climate change u dumbass.
your stupid, ppl from the caribbean go to america or europe and always come back looking lighter than they did before they left it's called climate change u dumbass
First of ALL Rihanna is in a completely different CLIMATE now! she's not in the Caribbean anymore, so of course her skin is gonna get lighter! *SIGH* Black people need to GET OVER!! this whole skin color thing it's getting boring now! :/
@Hopeful7ful don't make it about what "white people want." i hate it how people have to blame it on someone else.
white people will agree that she looked better with darker skin. in fact, a lot of white people like THEIR skin darker.
and a lot of dark people like their skin LIGHTER . it's just about people NEVER BEING HAPPY or SATISFIED with what they have, not about "racial expectations"
let me answer this 4 u all. the girl is not bleaching her skin. she has light skin and i believe her skin gets lighter in the winter time. she does not have 2 get darker when summer comes. there is air con - which can help keep her complexion lighter. i bet she is using these cocoa butter poducts which smoothes and tones the skin.
rihanna has nothing to be insecure about...she is the same color that she has always been. It's called "lighting" and "foundation" people. You are not her family or friend so you are speculating like the rest. If she were a white woman would you be concerned about her skin color or her tanning?
@moni468 Tanning is normal, using money on bleaching creams that can possibly give cancer, is not. Theres the difference. A being a black minority in a white majority can easily make some one insecure, maybe thats why she bleached
uh hello! Tanning causes cancer...melanoma! Maybe you should become educated on subjects before you comment. Rihanna does not bleach her skin...she has always been the color she is...blacks are too concerned with a person's skin color. SMH.
i ws in africa this mnth wth my mom,we were told to go to this pharmcy ,the sale beauty prdcts ,so the had this injection fr lightening ur skin ,my mom bought one last fr 6 mnths ,she gt lighter jus after 2wks,they dnt hv webbsite yet ,but i orded by email ,they send it wth DHL ,orded one fr me that lightens u skin fr a year.am very happy no more creams or spendin money on creams. if anyone wants to order here is their purebleachin@hotmail.com i hope helped :)
you sound stupid and confused...black people are the only race concerned with skin color...who cares if you are light skin, I am too. Rihanna is beautiful and natural, and you probably look and stare at her wishing she had contacts and bleached her skin, but she doesn't. Don't be mad...kill yourself.
rihanna's eyes change color depending on the seasons...you just want her to bleach her skin and have contacts but that is not the case...you are probably miserable and have low self esteem.
you guys are sick...only people who hate their skin color would pay attention to whether or not a person bleaches their skin....I bet rihanna is sitting back laughing at you guys...her baby pics obviously show a light skin person...and all of her childhood photos show that, plus her siblings and father are light skinned...stop trying to find flaws and uplift people.
i was watching a music video and saw this headline on the right os the screen and was like WTF? I'm just baffled that people are concerned with a person's skin color...damn leave this poor girl alone...hating ass miserable black people.
@moni468 Be quiet. It don't take a person to hate their skin compelxion to notice when the next person's bleaching. Dooes it take a low self-esteemed smaller person to notice when someone is getting fat?
clive7381:wow defending skin bleaching? hmmm you might as well defend anorexia excessive surgery body dismorphic disorder and general self hate...wow your such a human
I think she does bleach because you don't just automaticall get pale...if that was the case then she would have appear pale under the lights back then she first came out also.
@zavasa55 Black people dont get lighter we get darker even when we tan some of us tend to get our color back, but you don't get two or more shades lighter. Rihanna look nearly white.
@KimLeeX, Uh, no, you can get lighter or darker, it depends on the climate!!! I come from the South Pacific and its hot year round and I was dark. A few months after I arrived here, my skin went paler because of the change in climate. But still, skin tone can also depend on the lighting like the flash of a camera, there's also make up and last but not least, Photoshopping!!!!
@Rogue792 You can get lighter, but not lighter than your naural color. Rihanna is from the islands where it;s HOT all day and every day; she then moved to cali where it's hot most of the time. So rihanna can't get any lighter than her natural complextion over there years she has been getting lighter there is a huge differences in her skintone. I agreee with you it can be due to the camra light, makeup, and photoshop. but she admited to bleach once before.
That is a complete lie. Any black person who lives in area in this world where you have a real winter and a real summer (meaning that it's not 75-110 degree all year long): you know for fact, in summer you get real tan; especially if you are in the sun all day. In the winter, you lose your tan. For anyone who is light-skinned, the change of skin tone is even more drastic. You don't have to bleach to see this. Black people even get sunburns! That's a fact. Science have proved this!
@JustMeGiovanna1 The difference between you cousin and rihanna is that Rihanna was never pale to begin with. If you were never a color it can't possibly be your natural color. Look at her baby, infant, toodler, adolscent, and teen years, BUT ALL OF A SUDDEN SHE'S WHITE???? hmmmm sorry im not buying.
@KimLeeX exactly this is what people need to understan.she actually looks grey now lol.so sad.look at a pic of her next to katy perry,a very pale white girl and rihanna looks grey.so not attractive.she went from being a light brown complexioned girl to having a grey chemical complexion.and then tries to use the i have irish in my family as an excuse.wow stop it lol.the irish that is like 4 or 5 generations back. lol

of course we all know that being in a different climate can change your complextion, but not like that the girl looks almost white, u guys seem really naive just look at her that does not look natural...i can bet that most of the persons that r saying its the climate are from the caribbean well and i am too, im looking really light right now but not like that...I WOULD CONSIDER MYSELF HER BIGGEST FAN SO IM NOT BEING BAIS,I JUST HAVE BASIC COMMON SENSE.

Dear Stupid people,
I'm from Barbados and have lived in the us for many years, but I'm no longer the complexion I was in Barbados and I now appear lighter than people that were lighter than me growing up. It is called the sun stupid!!

@rasbados actually no. rihanna did not get lighter,her conplexion completely changed and looks grey! thats a sign of serious misuse of lightening chemicals.she went from being a light skinned girl to having a grey complexion.look at her next to katy perry and katy perry looks very pale yet rihhan looks grey.she did bleach her skin

@enissac You do understand that a picture doesn't always show the correct complexion of a black person? Light skin people don't bleach, don't forget that darker people bleach because of the feeling of inferiority. I have been blk all my life and have never seen people of her complexion bleaching. If you knew what you were talking about you could view a picture of her father who has a deep tan and see he is naturally very light, I should know because I just came back from Bdos with two tone skin.

SHE'S NOT BLEACHING. SHE'S FROM THE CARIBBEAN WHERE THE SUN BEATS DOWN ON U. WHEN SHE MOVED TO A COOLER CLIMATE HER SKIN RETURNED TO THE NORMAL UGLY COLOUR. MAKE UP AND CAMERAS ALSO MAKE BLACK PEOPLE LOOK LIGHTER THAN THEY REALLY ARE.

ok ppl.. you know what the real ignorance in you all.. stop being so righteous. if someone wants their skin to light then let em.. it's just a part of beauty cosmetics.. if someone light skinned wants to tan then let em too.. and here's a fact: Tanning your skin is more RISKY than Lightening you skin...
iLLusion625 10 months ago
@iLLusion625 but lightening creams reduce the amount of melanin in the skin...melanin is naturally found in people with brown skin and reduces the risk of skin cancer. You do the math.

@InthemirrorUK math..? haha don't worry darling i'm good at it.. good dear.. lightening is just a part of cosmetic beauty.. it's kinda dangerous if you're using fake, cheap product and inappropriate ways... get it.?
iLLusion625 8 months ago
@iLLusion625 Tanning is more risky because you tan yourself if you have pale skin - which has a low melanin count.... I think someone uses skin lightening products and is trying to justify the idea. By the way, just because a product is expensive it doesn't mean it won't harm you.

@InthemirrorUK i'm asian... and most of us has beautiful skin.. and those asian who has tan or darker skin lighten their skin and it goes hella well.. we've been doing this since the start of beauty cosmetics.. come on.! don't b so ignorant.. lightening or tanning is part of beauty cosmetics, remedy, ritual or whatever we call it.. if you want to ur color to stay dark then ok.. no one's really care. but let those ppl who wants to b more glowing or lighter.. duh..

Society and the media does this. Most models of colour in magazines are very light skinned with straight hair and mostly caucasian features; and a lot of times women of colour are seen in jungle settings and depicted as wild animals. I notice this a lot in fashion magazines. White is the only complexion that is 100% acceptable.

@markee871 basically..i believe if you're black and you're not happy with your skin color to the point you bleach you're skin to look more white and light that means you hate yourself and you're a self hating person. you see something wrong the color brown./black and you dont approve of it. you've been brainwashed to believe that lighter skin is more beautiful.. by who you might ask. :) white people. you believe that they are better than you and you as a brown skin person want to be just as good

wishywashygirl19 1 year ago
Oh come on you guys, that's all due to make-up, lighting and color contrasting. I'm from the carribean, and after returning home from america I became darker after only 2 weeks; upon returning to America it took me just a month to get as pale as I am now. When I'm in Puerto Rico, my hair gets blonder / nappier and my skin gets noticeably darker. in America my skin gets lighter, hair darkens and loosens.
Climate is everything, people. She's not bleaching anything.

@aMadMansMusic So why she gets lighter ?? Its not a climate problem, Im black and Im not dark, more like caramel and in winter yes Im lighter but not lighter like her, she's not living in alaska so why she will be so light ?? she looks white, you can look pale but not white like a white person...

It's probably makeup. She was never really dark to being with. I would have liked to see a before and after side by side. Maybe she had a tan in previous pics.

and a lot of dark people like their skin LIGHTER . it's just about people NEVER BEING HAPPY or SATISFIED with what they have, not about "racial expectations"

let me answer this 4 u all. the girl is not bleaching her skin. she has light skin and i believe her skin gets lighter in the winter time. she does not have 2 get darker when summer comes. there is air con - which can help keep her complexion lighter. i bet she is using these cocoa butter poducts which smoothes and tones the skin.

@WizardPrinceBreon
rihanna has nothing to be insecure about...she is the same color that she has always been. It's called "lighting" and "foundation" people. You are not her family or friend so you are speculating like the rest. If she were a white woman would you be concerned about her skin color or her tanning?
moni468 1 year ago
@moni468 Tanning is normal, using money on bleaching creams that can possibly give cancer, is not. Theres the difference. A being a black minority in a white majority can easily make some one insecure, maybe thats why she bleached

But still, skin tone can also depend on the lighting like the flash of a camera, there's also make up and last but not least, Photoshopping!!!!
Rogue792 1 year ago
@Rogue792 You can get lighter, but not lighter than your naural color. Rihanna is from the islands where it;s HOT all day and every day; she then moved to cali where it's hot most of the time. So rihanna can't get any lighter than her natural complextion over there years she has been getting lighter there is a huge differences in her skintone. I agreee with you it can be due to the camra light, makeup, and photoshop. but she admited to bleach once before.

That is a complete lie. Any black person who lives in area in this world where you have a real winter and a real summer (meaning that it's not 75-110 degree all year long): you know for fact, in summer you get real tan; especially if you are in the sun all day. In the winter, you lose your tan. For anyone who is light-skinned, the change of skin tone is even more drastic. You don't have to bleach to see this. Black people even get sunburns! That's a fact. Science have proved this!
