You cannot use bleach on your skin! The reason Michael Jackson's skin is light is because he has Vitiligo, and I'm sure that if you asked Michael Jackson then he would tell you not to lighten your skin!!

Bleaching your skin every great once and a while is perfectly fine, but extended use can lead to the bleach poisoning your system if you use it too much. Depending on how dark your skin is it is important you realize that you might not be able to achieve that lighter skin in a healthy way. You also really need to think about if it is what you want or what you think you want. Because if it is just like the hair dye of the month that Teen promotes then you shouldn't do it. Do it for yourself or not at all.

why does everyone want to be light skinn?? iam and i wanna be a little darker, you should stay how you are cuz wat if you do mess up like michael jackson?? just stay how you are and just use make-up to appear lighter not actually be lighter...

try some of these tips!~!

Here's a trick of the trade for cat eyes: find an index card and place it at a 45 degree angle to your eye (and right up to your eye, touching your skin). Take a light shade of eye shadow and place it along the uppermost and lowermost portion of your eyes. (Keep the card in place because this is your angle for the cat eyes). Next take a darker shade and place that into the crease of your eye and blend with the lower lighter color and only slightly blend with the upper lighter shade. Add a dark eyeliner along the entire length of your upper eyelash and black mascara for your lashes. This will make your eyes "pop". Now remove the index card and you will have cat eyes! Smokey tones with purples work great for cat eyes.

better mix tumeric powder with besan with 2 teaspons of milk, some tomato puree, cucumber gratings and a few drops of lemon juice....apply and keep on ur face (or whichever othe part of ur body) for about 15-20 minutes and then wash off with water

I'm certainly not going to make fun of you. I am, however, going to beg you not to bleach your skin. Skin bleaching can result in a patchy, vitiligo-like effect; it seriously damages your skin, and is very likely to lead to premature ageing; it may put you at greater risk of skin cancers.

I really don't think it's worth it, just to be lighter. Dark skin is beautiful and perhaps you should try to find inspiration in the style of stunning black models like Alek Wek. Have a look at some of the pics below.

I've never heard anything like this before, I mean I know what Michael Jackson did to himself, but believe me, he didnt use bleach, he did something to remove his skin's pigmentation, that psycho.
Why cant you just accept yourself??? Be proud of being black, or white, or brown, I dont know, it's your race, and the way you were born, I dont get that thing of caramel/chocolate.

Anyway, for being honest I've never heard in my life of anything to lighten up human skin, I suppose I learn something everyday, that's good.

this just dosent make any sense! the ones that are darker wanna use creames to lighten their skin and the pale ones are getting tans to look darker. why not be happy with how u are! I bet u avoid the sun in the summer too. _shame_

Don't do it! Be yourself. It's a terrible idea that people would attempt to change their skin with chemicals to look better.

I know I'm a hypocrite because I'll get tan this summer, but I hate the idea of someone 'bleaching' their skin.

If you really want to lighten your skin then do that!! Just follow the directions VERY carefully and you should'nt come out looking like Michael Jackson!! P.S- Dont use alot on your skin though!!!

I'd use a good sunscreen (spf 50) instead. It really helps during the summer. And, obviously, stay out of the sun.

Fair and Lovely has a cream you could try, but I don't know how well it works.

You should try using a slightly lighter concealer.. you should never bleach your skin, especially with out help from a cosmetic doctor.
