The red and white picture vs the picture from the youtube video. under similar lighting. She was dark. Now she is brown skin. She looks very different from those pics now.

I too look very different under different lighting. And I do not bleach. When someone bleaches they graduate from dark to light finally. You can't say Yvonne is bleaching and she will be switching from one color to the next as in the case of tonto.

Huh? I am not insulting you. The contrast of light make-up such as blush/pink lipstick against medium dark tones can throw people off. Coupled with the camera flashlights in her pics.

You didn't correct anything.

stillwater:

So upon all your open eye you don't know that foundation has changed over the years? You wanna compare Yvonne Nelson of old nollywood in the age of Mac? Even Genevieve doesn't look like her old pics.

It's no longer lightening, it's foundation

I guess some of us only apply makeup on our face and not the rest of our body.

Kudos to you too. These women still bleached under their makeup.

Amaaskia:

Aww thank you :-) *running fingers through my Brazilian hair* Um well, girls that bleach think/feel it makes em look better. Some actually do look better (when they're toning mildly), the others look horrible outta desperation for a lighter skin.

Me? I'm black n proud :-D

You welcome. Its sad girls feel that way cos they are awfully wrong! The after-effects of bleaching are too horrible to even consider it an option! What happens sef to we ninjas that actually like our dark-skinned honeys? Dark-skinned girls are becoming an endangered species lol

She did lighten her skin. Look at those 3 pictures. The lighting is very similar. Yvonne is no longer as dark as the pictures she wore a red and a white shirt. I have seen enough pics of her to know that. There are various stages of bleaching. Not all is outrageously obvious like Rita dominic and that other ojuju someone posted.

I thought that this is common knowledge.

Depending on make-up, cameras and positioning your skin tone can look somewhat different.

Even someone as dark as alek looks different depending on the type of picture taken.

Ugh I hate typing from my phone. Would have loved to provide pictures as examples.

No swerrie, it's not common knowledge for a woman to apply makeup like it's lotion.

That makeup is what we call bleaching creme.

If you're doing it, you need to stop.



I hope that "knowledge" does not become common.

Makeup can be made and manipulated for someone to look lighter. Same with lighting. But all these girls did bleach. Mercy sef doesnt look very different, but from her movies and uneven tone sometimes, its obvious that she bleaches. But had not quite perfected it. I saw a recent picture of her and she is a lot lighter than what you posted.

Idowuogbo:

lol can you imagine these women trying to excuse bleaching.........omo, may that knowledge not be common abeg

I don't believe she did. She has money now she can take care of herself and look better. The money must show for her body now doesn't mean she's bleaching.

True, it's harder to catch a lightskin woman bleaching. But you can tell, the hue of her skin looks so unnatural. Even if hidden behind makeup, you can still tell.

Hehehehe. Are your fingers having a Brazilian hair fetish?

Stillwater showed you a video of Yvonne in 2013 sans makeup and flashlight.

How is she different from her supposed darker days?

Hey I like your concept here...but be careful who you label.

I know a lot of people that came into money. That didnt change their skin tone automatically. If taking care of herself means buying better cream. Then you are saying the truth. If it was all about money, i wonder why Wale Tinubu who is a very rich man is still the same color. . Sure you may dress better, look healthier, and smell nicer. But your color would not change. Remember, she has lived in Africa permanently. So we cannot claim she got a bit lighter from lack of intense sun exposure. With all that hellfire heat, these girls are looking light. haba o.

You wanna compare a man to a woman? I would speak for myself, my skin would definitely improve if I win a jackpot. By improvement I don't mean bleaching. It would be brighter, smoother and sexier! Wale tinubu ko!

Indifferent: Where is Monalis chinda

she is there...LOL

So because she is a woman, something in her body states she should automatically be light. Come on! You and i know that equates to being able to afford better cream. Anytime i leave Nigeria, i get lighter because of lack of sun exposure everywhere. But when i get back, omo, i am sweating, panting and burning. SPF sef would be running away from me. I dont know how they do it. . That cream must be special. . She must have "toned" and is "maintaining"

Yvonne 2013

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bksMR_vTsI

Yvonne Nelson DID NOT bleach but I think Monalisa is bleaching and I don't know why.

We straighten our hair, wear wigs and all sort of extended hair products: You hear them say "love your hairdo!" Some even begged "can I touch it?"

We drop our accents and take up the American or the British and they all enthused: "Oh what a great accent you have!"

...no one chastised us but all encouraged us. Most even sponsor us.

Then we lighten our skin and they start screaming "what have you done to your skin?"

...I mean What hypocrisy!

Baby it's not about cream. This celebrities are disposed to spa treatments. People like us remove makeup from our faces with soap and water . When you use those expensive products if you see the kind of dirt that comes off your face despite the fact that you used soap to wash it. Even you yourself you go change if you pamper your skin in one month.

Why is Tonto so damnnn shapeless? I would never have an ere...ction with that if I was a man.

ehn

But i go to the spa every 6weeks. Why i never upgrade ok o. Dirt ke. LOL. The only dirt i see is the makeup they wipe from my face. Yes you get brighter for a few days, but you return back to normal.
