I just heard of this website. Interesting!!
Many African-Americans & different races even the Celebrities use fade lotions too. I don’t think that using fade creams/skin-lightening lotions is wrong. Dermotologists prescribe them even in higher concentrations than what is found OTC and they monitor their patients.
The major problems are the motive behind the usage and lack of education on proper usage. I agree that changing one’s complexion will not solve any insercurities about his/her skin color. However, if you want an even complexion, use only fade lotions with SPF or try skin lightening lotions without Hydroquinone.
cheers!!

KleenShave.Com has a Fade Cream that is a TRUE fade cream; not a bleaching cream. There is a difference. A real fade cream “fades age spots, scar tissue, hyper-pigmentation areas, etc. back to it’s ORIGINAL color to match the rest of the body’s skin tone. Many Bleaching creams market them selves as Fade Creams.
Another feature of a TRUE Fade Cream, is that the same cream will work equally as well on all skin colors from black to white. It is because a Fade Cream restores damaged skin tones back to its original tone regardless to color.

I observe myself quite well and see no difference. I am not light skinned and dont want to be. I like my complexion and Shirley does not make me lighter. I dont know about the rest of the population…

It is really sad to see the Women of African decent trying to lightn up their face. Black is beautiful and we should expose that to the world. We are leaders in this world and to look white is not who God intended us to be. Let us imbrace our blackness to show the world that we can do all thing naturally . We are a gifted people regardless of color.

Though it is most noticeable when black women do it, Indians be bleachin’ too…hell, they make half the products! What Nigerian women fail to understand too is that if you use bleach, you also need to use sunscreen. If you don’t, your skin will just get darker–totally defeats the purpose!!! And LMAO at the second picture…that first expression she made is classic!!

I think its bigger than the cream… the insecurity that it’s supposed to mask is the real problem. The idea that light is closest to white and that makes you better is scary. I’ve heard of some families starting their kids on bleaching creams as young as the age of 12. Brighter skin doesn’t equal beauty, security, stance or superiority. And its sad how many women have bought into this idea.

They don’t realize that you can bleach the face, but not the neck, hands, chest (and while we are at it, chest hair on a woman is a no-go, so old school naija, please stop), legs and feet because the cream won’t penetrate those areas. So they walk around with a light face and a dark neck. Too funny. Then later on in life, when they stop bleaching, they get darker than they were before. Damn shame, lol!
