Answer 1

ask Michael Jackson

Answer 2

I have tried skin-lightening lotions, and have found that they do not work, so don't waste your money.

Keeping in mind that if you come form a swarthy family you might not be able to get too pale, the best way to be fair is to wear SPF 30 sunblock every single day, even in the dead of winter, even when you'll only be outside for 20 minutes in the sun for the whole day. Also, avoid sunbathing of any kind this summer. (I hope you don't love the beach!) After about a half year, you will be noticeably paler than you were. I know it might not be the quick fix you want, but it works.

Answer 3

I think the real question is.....why do you want to be lighter complected. When I was in elementry school, some kids started calling me prairy niger....because I had darker skin then them and they found out that I am part Cherokee. But it didn't stop there. My fathers side is very light complected, so I also had platnum blond hair and eyebrows. Just imagine that. I looked like some bleach headed surfer boy from Vinice beach. So they started calling me an albino prairy niger. As I got older, the teasing stopped. (mostly because I was stronger then the bullies.) But in middle school, I had a few skin problems and had to take medication. I was allergic to the meds and they made me very sinsative to the sun. They also made my skin really pail. It took years of sunburns to get to the skin tone I am now. I'm still not as brown as I used to be, but at least I look healthy. Many people go out of there way to get darker, because mily white skin makes some people look like they are on kemo theropy. Even some black people soke up sun raise to get darker. If you are serious about getting lighter, then avoid the sunlight. For faster, BUT PERMANANT results that you would most definitly repret later, there are medications out there for skin bleaching. (But be warned.....you can't take it back.....and your fingernail beds and certain other areas will never look normal again.) I'm sure your skin is the tone it was ment to be. Best not to mess with nature. If you are female, I bet you are beautiful the way you are. If you are a guy, then focus on your confidence instead.

Answer 4

You should do whatever makes you happy, but why would you do this?

Any chemicals you can use should be applied by a professional. Go to a dermatologist, or plastic surgeon.

Keep in mind that these chemical lighteners will only lighten a shade or two. If you are really dark you will need to make multiple appointments to have this procedure done and they are not covered by insurance.

That I know of, Michael Jackson is the only one that has been able to achieve "all over lightening" and he has money making money for his money.

Answer 5

God make you that way - why aren't you happy with that? You just have a tough time to accept it. I think if you respect and love yourself you will never be that way - if it can't be changed the only alternative is to bleach your skin which will have after-effects - and I hope you wouldn't go into things that will harm you. If anything Michael Jackson is a good example - u see right now he can't be in the sun without an umbrella? Does that ring a bell to you?

Answer 6
