Well, what about all of the bronzers and self-tanners being marketed toward fair women?  Isn't that saying that pale skin isn't beautiful?  If you're not sun-bronzed people seem to think of you as a pasty-faced nerd who spends too much time inside.  This only seems to be forgiven if you have (admittedly gorgeous) red hair; if you're a blond or brunette, though, you'd best be dark if you want to be stylish! 

Personally I'm proud of my fair skin, but if people want to use self-tanner or skin lightener that's fine with me.  And isn't it possible that when photos are used for magazine spreads that lightening the overall picture is sometimes necessary?

Eye Makeup Tips To Creat Younger Looking Eyes and
How To Create Beautiful Smoky Cat Eyes



Younger looking eyes...

--The first step is to reduce fine lines. So apply a little eye cream on the brow bone and under the eye.


--Next dab on a concealer that matches your skin tones.


--The last step is to line the eye with a white pencil just beneath the lash line. This will give the impression of larger and brighter eyes.

I am very happy a white male has noticed these things! This has always been  issue...darker women trying to lighten their skin to become more attractive, to look more European. It's not only African-American women, either, it's also in Asian, Latin, and Indian cultures (it's really hard to be a dark skinned asian, such as myself...). The media, I suppose, has brain washed society to make us believe that pale and fair-skin is attractive...We believe that men will go for us if we are ligther.
You can see more stuff on Tyra Banks show, on youtube. Just look up bleaching skin and you'll see how far women will go to be lighter.
I got over the media's advertisements and recently started to believe that I can still look nice with dark skin. :D

Folks, I'm a 34 year old GUY with something important to say.  (And no, I don't use eyeliner or make-up products.)

 

I work in a the graphics department of a small print shop near Los Angeles.  When I saw the thumbnail image of Beyonce, I clicked on the article to review it and see what "sales pitch" was being offered.

 

HERE'S MY POINT:

In this case, what they did was use PhotoShop, CGI,  or a similar product to COMPLETELY take away the original color (pigment) from Beyonce's skin, then go back and add a bronzed (completely different and not natural) color to the shoulders and body, then finally add a smaller amount of bronze tone to the center of her face.   I work in this industry, and know this to be a FACT.  My question is, WHY????????

 

They do this to MICHELLE OBAMA all the time in print media, especially when her image is seen in print overseas in Europe (especially Eastern Europe).  They always use computer graphics to make her skin look lighter than it actually is.  You will almost never see an image of her without it being lightened and adjusted.  What's wrong with leaving her skin tone the way that it actually is?

 

This is the 21st Century.  Haven't times changed since the early 20th Century when many of our ancestors from Eastern Europe or of Jewish descent had to shorten their last names, or change them all together, just to be able to incorporate into the American melting-pot more quickly?  (The world was different then, we thought.)  No wonder African-Americans complain about how they are represented in the fashion industry, as well as in the mainstream entertainment media.

 

Can't they sell eyeliner and make-up products any other way????

 

Just a 30-something white, male, with adding my two cents to the blog, here.  Thanks.
