Question Posted Wednesday February 5 2014, 7:46 pm
I was born very fair and even though i hail from Africa i could pass for an european. As a child i played in the sun a lot and i hated bathing. Now my face is extremely dark but i do not like it. Can anyone give me advice on how to regain my natural skin colour? I would really appreciate it.

The truth is, most people's colouring changes as they age. Skin, hair and eye colour all shift. The skin colour you see in the mirror today is probably your own, just like the lighter skin was your own when you were a child. It just changed.
You can stay out of the sun, and wear sunscreen whenever you'll be out for long, but unless you are currently heavily tanned, your skin colour is your skin colour. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
