What the best product can I buy to help be white or just help me to lighten my skin color!!

What kind of product will I buy... to help me to be white... can you specifically tell me the brand name of it?

How much lighter are we talking about? Are you trying to even out what you have or make a drastic change?

I keep seeing these posts and have to ask why? Can we not be happy with our bodies the way God has made them.
I see these lightening posts all the time , just came into this one, since the word "white" and I though it may be a racist post, ( sorry, had to check)

In all of us there are shades, some real dark, some lighter and some real lite. Why does it take changing our pigment to make us happy with outself. ( if there is some skin disorder I could see getting all the color even) but I never hear of anyone saying how do I get darker?

but I never hear of anyone saying how do I get darker ??

I used to ask that back in my High School days before I learned about skin cancer. I would grease myself up with baby oil and roast myself in the mid day sun - stupid! I also used to figure out how to lighten my freckles, but have learned to love them.

Love what you have, keep it moisterized and protected from the sun and it will last you a lifetime!

Umm we have tanning to make people darker. And why does it take breast augmentation to make people happy? Why does it take face lifts to make people happy? Why do women shave their legs? Why do people cut their hair? Why do people dress in a certain style of clothing rather then another style? Its personal preference for one's appearance. Some people only date black people is that a bad thing? Some people prefer to be gay then straight (other then religiouse issues) is that bad? Some people just like the opposite sex?. its all about person preference. Some people just see themselves with fairer skin. Why?there are many answers to why. But all that matters is that people find a place where they can be satisfied and healthy. If that means bleaching one's skin or getting a boob job or gutting of fingers and toes... so be it.

How can u be white rexidol?

There's a simple way: be born to caucasian parents

:) I hope that was helpful

I second that HonB. Obviously the girl is talking about whitening her skin color, not about becoming a different race altogether. In any case, it takes one who believes in the social stigma to think and assume that any person who wishes to lighten/whiten means to become a caucation person, while anyone who wishes to darken/tan means just that. How about next time you go to a tanning salon and ask them ladies why they want to be African Americans, why they're not just happy w/ their race and color? If you don't do that, yet you're here w/ such presumption about people on this board... who is the one w/ prejudice here?
