#DANGthebleachingepisode

“Ife, I started lightening my skin in Uni. I liked the way a lot of my light-skinned friends looked & I thought to lighten my skin like theirs after all my mum was light-skinned, my dad and my sister are somewhat caramel. So, I could get away with it...
I started with tube creams like tempovate, then I moved on to gel creams. As I got lighter, I began to receive compliments from guys and girls.

As life would happen, I met a boy who liked light skinned girls so I started to use more intense skin lightening creams.
I went to Yaba to mix my creams then moved to Lagos Island to get an even more intense concoction especially as my knuckles just didn’t cooperate with my body.

Then I got married. I found myself competing for my husband with Naturally light-skinned girls.

I couldn’t stop now.
