To all the white girls in Nigeria and the future white girls wannabe’s, BEWARE!!
If you are going to bleach, get ready for these:
Dark gray spots: (All over the skin you are trying to bleach)
- Skin cancer: (I hope you saved up money for chemotherapy. Buy a good wig because your hair will fall out as a side-effect to chemotherapy. If you don’t have money for chemotherapy then, good luck!!)
- Acne
- Swelling of the skin: (you want to walk around looking like a monster, go for it)
- Thinning of the skin
- Cataracts: (clouds the lens in your eyes. Google it.)
- Setting down of fat on face, chest, upper back and stomach: (get ready to gain more weight.)
- Increase in appetite and weight gain
- Osteoporosis: (it affects your bones.)
- Neurological and kidney damage due to high level of mercury used in the creams- (No amount of attention is worth you losing your kidneys. Ladies, stop this nonsense.. Wake up from this madness, seriously! Stop with this stupidity.)
- Psychiatric disorders: (depression- no matter how fair you look, you will never feel beautiful.)
- Severe birth defects: (it could affect your future unborn children)
- Asthma
- Liver damage

- Seeing all these negative consequences, do you think its still worth it bleaching your skin? Who told you were not good just the way you are? Newsflash: Nobody can tell you something, you didn’t already tell yourself. Bleaching is not the answer for an internal problem. Get a mental image of who are and fix that first. Fixing the outside comes with a price that will affect you for the rest of your life.Stop letting society define you, define yourself for ONCE.
Truthfully, anything or guy that wants to subject you to these unnecessary health problems is not worth your time. LOVE YOURSELF. TELL YOURSELF, YOUR ARE BEAUTIFUL. SAY IT UNTIL YOU BELIEVE IT.
