WHO has declared Nigeria as the country with the highest use of skin-lightening products. Topping the chart all over the world with 77%, followed by Togo's 59% and with Senegal in third place with 27% usage.
In spite of these facts, it is important to look at the general consequences of the extensive use of skin-lightening products as stated by WHO. A consumer who uses products as this is more exposed to leukemia, cancers of the liver and kidney and severe skin conditions like the multi-colouring of the skin. I call it 'colour-blocking'.

The organization might have got it's fact through purchase rate, yet these results are quite controversial, if you ask me. We should remember always that Black Is Beautiful. Appreciate yourself and see how much people will appreciate you.
