Darker skin, in general, ages better than lighter skin. Have you seen Black people who are like 80 and don’t look a day above 40. Appreciate this about your skin.

How much lighter do you wanna be? Michael Jackson lighter? Cuz that will just draw negative attention to you.

Or even if you want to 1-2 shades lighter…do you realize you’ll have to maintain it because the sun and age will darken skin. So if you apply ubtan or Fair and Handsome or other bleaching agents like honey/milk…you will have to apply them with regularity and wear sunscreen each time you go out. If you opt for chemical peels …they make your skin even more sensitive to the sun so sunblock is a must. You have to keep up with it…and it can be hassle.

The people who are criticizing you right now tor things beyond your control won’t quit if you become fair. You can bet on them making remarks down the road about your receding hairline, weight gain, gray hair, etc and they won’t let you down. I’m telling you from personal experience..because I’ve encountered people like that..even among family.

The next time your parents or cousins make remarks about your skin color…tell them to take up your skin color with Allah the one who created you and while they’re at it, they should pray to Him for some class and consideration for others. Shut them up that way; Sometimes it works.

Thanks you. You bring up some good points. I will raise it with people who talk of my skin colour. The usual answer is what will people say, you’ll stick out and think of the kids and what they’ll face. I appreciate the benefits and thanks for reminding me. I am grateful Allah has given me good skin and working body.

I just want to be normal brown sanwala rang and though I’m good at maintaining my skin I’m not sure how consistent id be. I’d only want natural because of side effects.
You’re right people never stop complaining. With my parents the main issue is career the rest is just an excuse to make me realise I’m not going anywhere
