Do you think this ad could be.. racist? I dunno. I'm so mad at it I couldn't even talk straight lol

If you disagree, I don't mind. I wanna hear from you

Why do my thumbnails always make me look like a dumbass?? :P

PS: The reference to MJ was not meant as an insult.

First, No human is Yellow unless you have a liver the size of a football. People are different shades of brown. Second, mixed is a racist term. Third, You are very pretty, just buy different magazines and buy from the cosmetics counter at Macy's. So There!

Hehe thanks for the compliment. What I tried to say was 'yellow undertones', cause no one is really 'in-your-face' yellow, and oriental people are relatively more yellow looking than others. A lot of (not all) asian women try to achieve this 'rosy pink' look and dislike the yellowness, which is sad. PS: Here 'mixed' is not offensive. In fact people like biracials/multiracials. Thanks for watching and commenting :)

@wachnowicz plus, are bronzers racist? :/

[wachnowicz]

hi there, I think you're overreacting (; and maybe you're racist yourself suggesting that this cosmetic is only for Asian people. I am caucasian and I have pale skin with freckles and yellowish tone. so I use the cream to lighten my skin. in my country it is very popular to have a fake tan. I want my skin to be white, cause I think it looks nice. what's the big deal? it's a matter of taste.

Omg. You are so irritating when you speak. If you wan't a yellow skin tone and Like it Then it's not our problem.! If Any products sell Foundation it's not racisme too? You are making a small thing to an issue. I wan't to have a brighter face and I Like the cream. And I'm so thankfull that they sell theese products. Thumbs down to your, sorry

Awesome video ! WELL SAID :)

[kivickycool]

you are the one that is racist. Most of the asian want to have a skin tat is like a egg, more white and bright! In fact, if your skin is really alot of yellow, that is so something wrong with your own liver!

[nuthinge]

[SiisiiLovESMJ]

MJ didnt made himself "some other color" like you say He had a skin disease called Vitiligo Which was something he couldnt control. look it up. But i must say i agree with the other things u say

[hotlipzzaya]

Pufferfish may not have put the most eloquent argument forward but her sentiment is spot on. Cosmetic multinationals like L'Oreal will spend obscene amounts of money exploiting people's insecurities for profit. No matter how ugly the that insecurity is. Maybe it's some kind of a colonial hangup where people are their ashamed of their skin. There's a reason why these whitening products are sold mainly in Asia and Africa. Modern remains of colonization include internalized racism and that's sad.
