"whiter=better" lol and i'm all rubbing on a tan. let's face it, they want to make us all feel like shit so they can sell us junk. pretty simple.

this my friends is how you sell a useless product.

degrade the consumer until they feel as if there is something wrong with them, and that they wont feel pretty or solve their problems until they buy ther product by telling them lies like they will look good in anything, people will date them, and that their life will finally begin.

Don't just assume that Asians wants to emulate white people because they want to have fair skin. Fair skin women are looked upon in the chinese society as more beautiful for centuries. For your information fair skin East Asian complexion is different from Caucasians. It is just a preference and a choice.

I would understand if your knees were too dark and you wanted to even out the skin tone, but this is kinda sick!

Before using any skin lightening product, check whether it contains thimerosal, which is the chemical name for mercury - as this accumulates in body organs, including brain, and is progressively lethal (one out of every six babies in USA are born with existing harmful level of mercury, because it also crosses the placenta).

It's used in some products (including eye, nasal and cosmetic) as an anti-bacterial and anti-fungal preservative.

@sasukesheart

It makes the ad racist when it tells you "lighter...BETTER"

and i know people might have preferences. but its also stupid to prefer "only light" or "only dark". There is no all-binding rule for beauty. there are beautiful people in all shapes/colours/sizes, and to narrow urself to thinking only one type is attractive is just silly and ignorant!

@TheChaiTeaLatte - Cont. --> The brown Asians (South Asians) worked the heavier labor under the sun while the light-skinned Asians (East Asians) did the middleman stuff. Because the European colonialists enforced this mentality, this divide caused a STRONG preference for light skin in the Asian community TODAY. Use your head.

[mundanelifeof]

@TheChaiTeaLatte - NO. That "view" of beauty is completely different from what I am talking about. You're talking about beauty TRENDS; I'm talking about discrimination and prejudice due to preference for LIGHT SKIN. I didn't say anything about dyeing hair or wearing contacts. The reason why there is an entrenched preference for light skin in the Asian community is because of the divide between South and East Asians due to COLONIALISTS' labor practices back in the days. ---> cont.
