In Asia, women with fair skin is considered beautiful but women with dark / natural tan skin were never given much attention. It has made many women especially from tropical south east Asia to feel outcasted and they buy whitening products which harm their skin. Shouldn't it be time to step up & let people know the true beauty of natural skin colour? And stop the advertising of whitening products?

It amazes me when some light-skinned people burn their skin to get a tan and some darker-skinned people try to lighten their skin to make it more like the light-skinned people.
I'm not talking about a healthy color of skin from being outdoors or disguising blemishes, etc to boost confidence. Also, I do realize some people have legitimate skin problems they want to treat and improve.
Perhaps people could be satisfied with what they have instead of trying to attain a false ideal put forward by advertising.

How did you know that ?
yes we do use them
but its not because we don't believe that our natural tan skin is ugly no of course we love it :)
but because when a guy step up to get married from a woman with tan skin his mother would not like her even if she is a princess
guys here like that color but their mothers wouldn't agree that much :)
n about the products you are right someone should stop that addiction

that is so funny considering people in the us spend millions of dollars a year on tanning beds and fake tanning products!! darker skin is beautiful. really when you are at the beach who wants to see a person so pale you have to shade your eyes from the glow??

i feel the same way only here in California...tan skin is preferred and woman bake away in the sun or tanning beds which is terrible for them and fair skin-ed women (like me) are thought to be sick.....

I'm not asian,but my skin is so white,that ppl would make fun of me telling me I blind them,or I'm see through,lol,and so ppl like me go and tan(rolling my eyes),no one is ever going to be good enough for everyone,so screw it and be yourself,love yourself,accept yourself,the sooner one does that,the sooner others will also,and if not,thats their problem.
