Was this always a thing? Why don't the men do it as well?
Asian women and skin whitening cream
Kpop celebrities get their faces photoshopped whiter too
>Was this always a thing?
Yes, not only on east-asia either. South asians also do this
lighter skin is associated with femininity.
This is a cross-cultural phenomenon
i used once their whitening bb cream, elizavecca milky piggy and it looked dewy so i had to use finishing powder (men kind of have to use matte finish creams or use powder as well) and it also left traces on my phone and even with the powder it didn't last for the whole day and people asked me why i was so pale. fucking girls who reviewed that stuff had lied to me -_-
dark skin is associated with peasants who had to work in the field under the sun constantly. light skin pretty much shows you are a lady from upper class.
Yeah if a slav used it they would probably look like a fucking ghost.
Uhh seems a bit delusional to maintain this way of thinking after the 20th century.
yea, i'm starting to see some chinese girls do think about getting a tan from time to time these days.
i was to vietnam the last fall and our guide of one of the excursions was from kazakhstan, i.e. central asian looking herself, but obviously with a eastern european upbringing i.e. she thought it was ok to get tanned etc, she told us how vietnamese girls tried to shame her not to get tanned "what are you doing, you like like a cham woman" etc
personally i think tanning is bad for your skin and should be avoided, i always use 50 spf cream every day in the tropics
pic related is a cham girl btw, vietnamese kind of despise them
i love tan girls
thank god not many people care about whiteness here
??
Almost everywhere thats been touched by western civilisation thinks that way
Toxic beliefs from colonisers that purist till today because of social media.
The Hutu/tutsi conflict was caused by this same "lighter skin good/ dark skin bad" mentality
Chinese have a really sarcastic sense of humour
i love it
japanese women whitening their skin with nightingale's feces a thousand years ago
they also used a lot of white powder on their face
Asians need whitening as much as white people needs anti aging.
oh you thought i was sarcastic? people dont actually care much about whiteness here though. some even view those kinds of creams as harmful. cant speak for other countries though
why'd you use it exactly?
*were whitening
grr
But Japanese have always larped as whites of Asia.
man, i kinda hate asians desu
they told me it was a good bb cream/
i suppose it's better for girls but still
i use holika holika petit clearing bb right now, it's pretty good, the best of what i have tried, nobody except koreans makes decent bb creams
why? i want to look cute obviously, i also wear a light contouring and if i lived in a civilized country i would paint my eyes too and wear mascara but alas -_-
bb cream is a tonal cream combined with a moisturizing fluid and a sun block, evens out your color face and hides small imperfections, the only disadvantage it's that you have to use some oil to remove it
your face color
grrr
it's somehow almost always a thing but not always a “be white as much as possible” thing
koreans do this too much and many asians including japs follow the trend but it feels like going backwards for us
faggot hope you get beaten up by putin
man, I think she is a girl because she knows bb cream a lot.
putin is a wrestler, he could probably wrestle me :3 ...no, he is too old and i didn't vote for him ><
i am a boymoding tranny if it counts as a girl lol
Ah, sorry.
wh*tes getting shitty tans is the reason why they need anti-aging creams and surgery
yeah, that why i am for wearing a sunblock on your face, neck and hands, 30 spf minimum. anyway tan doesn't really look good
Speak for yourself. I look 10x better when my skin gets all golden and lightly browned in summer.
People always want what they can't get. Why do you think wh*tes toast themselves in cancer beds?
