Anyway

1. Both light-skinned and dark-skinned people need take care of their skin. In fact it is easier to tell when a darker-skinned person has not creamed themselves well because the skin will turn white/grey and look dry. People who spend thousands on their light skin are self-conscious of losing their colour, but if they just leave themselves alone and apply a good suncream when its very bright outside, they will be ok.

2. No quarrel

3. There are certain shades that look better on both skin types. Just that certain colours go better together than others. Darker skinned people tend look better with bright, block colours like yellow/red like you said, because the contrast is more striking

4. Aside from genetics, people with darker skin tend to scar more easily than their lighter counterparts. They are also more likely to get raised scar formations called "keloids", which are very troublesome

5. The time a wound takes to heal has absolutely nothing to do with skin colour but with the person's health status. For example, somebody who lacks Vitamin K in their diet will bleed for a longer period of time when injured, because their blood will take longer to clot. This has nothing to do with skin colour

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH NUMBER 4

you are right, but prolonged use of this cosmestics always have a side effect on our skin. Blocking of sweat pores, dirt accumulation which may later lead to infections, heat, and sometimes skin cancer. Seriously dark skin rules.


Dark skin doesn't rule,God created us equally, what you said is so wrong and disrespectful

Thumbs up for u,nice observation expecialy that num 4, my own addition is,if u want natural beauty,u can go for dark skin,reason been that;light skin peeps r always beautiful either natural or artificial I.e fake so,they needed more to maintain their skin for it not to turn kampala for bleachers,that is not to say that dark skin don't need maintenance o.but a dark skin,if u r ugly u r ugly n if u r beautiful,u r.
