...IT ALSO HAVE HEALTH EFFECT, DESIST FROM IT! ! !
The scripture says in Jeremiah 13:23 "Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil" .
Harmful Effects of Skin Whitening or Bleaching
Bleaching is, in fact, a process in which the hair on the skin is bleached to match with the actual skin tone. Men of low esteem are usually the ones who go after bleaching.
According to medics, the two toxic chemicals, Hydroquinone and mercury, react with ultraviolet rays and lead to more pigmentation and premature aging. Needless to say that when someone using these skin bleaching products notices the pigmentation he or she get tipped into more usage of the product? Now, the user has entered a vicious cycle. The more this product is used, the less melanin the body produces, and this leads to an increased risk for skin cancer.
Furthermore, continued use of hydroquinone, will roughen the skin, making it look like an uneven patch of colors with a spotted appearance (as seen in the picture - like roasted plantain) . Also long-time mercury use will strip the skin of natural pigment and leave it with a gray/blue color in the folds of the skin. Mercury will eventually cause organ damage, which can lead to liver and kidney failure and mercury poisoning.
According to a Japanese study, out of 400 live births, 42 babies were brain-damaged. This was as a result of majority of these mothers using mercury-based bleaching creams during childbearing years.
People who bleach their skin in an effort to look like the whites have overtime been tagged as people who suffer silently from low self-esteem.
I'm using this medium to enjoin all who engage in this to stop it, apart from the various side effect, God frowns at it, consider the above cited scripture.
