Love Your Skin

simpletons.jpg The most interesting thing about Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton, to me, is that they look the same. Same hair, same skin tone, same fashion. Just very much the same. One of them is half-African American, but which one? Obviously, you know which one because you hear about them constantly, but if you didn't it would be hard to tell.

It's interesting that women all want to be the same color, only not the color we are.

Dark skinned women buy bleaching products to lighten the color of their skin to be more beautiful. While white women poison their skin with sun damage and tanning beds to look darker to be more beautiful. (I'm really regretting the tanning, now that I'm fighting melasma with bleaching products so I have one skin tone.)

Does this mean that Hispanic women, who presumably have the ideal medium brown skin tone, feel most beautiful? Or do they have skin-tone issues too?

I like the Olay tag line, Love the skin you're in.
