Skin Lightening & Beauty Standards, *The TRUTH* | Makeup & Mindset

Hey Cuties!!!

For this episode of Makeup & Mindset we’re going to talking about skin lightening or skin bleaching, as it pertains to the beauty standards around the world. I had no idea how skin bleaching actually worked until I did a little research and found this out, so I wanted to share with you guys what I learned! I’m also going to be sharing a bit of my personal experience as a dark skinned woman in the beauty industry! I hope you enjoy!

I LOVE YOU!
