Another looks thread

[Lil Magic]

I don't know how it is in the U.S., but here in the Bahamas, being really dark is pretty detrimental to your chances with girls. Im really dark, because I play so much sports in addition to the fact that I had really bad acne (I still have it, but not as bad). I don't like to complain but it would be nice to be the one the girls look at for once because of my looks. Anyone knows any way of getting rid of acne AND lighten skin (without bleach cream).

i use this cheap 1.50 cleasing gel thing...i got it at walmart hehe
i'm sure you can find something like that

as for whitening...i really wouldn't suggest changing yourself so drastically
i'm sure you can find a girl who likes darker skin...just work on qualities that you lack or could use improvement

you mean you have dark skin and you DON'T like it?!?! ahaha, come on man, dark skin totally ROCKS. A lot of people would die to have darker skin. Here in portugal people spend days in the summer just in the beach for having a darker skin. So I'm not sure what your problem is... Learn to like it! (Not sure if ~I read your post right tho). People have WAY WAY worse problems, don't mind! (If this post doesn't help you.... I hope you can get your skin whitening)

Here in America all girls and some guys try hard to have darker skin, most of the time by just laying down in the sun.

Tanner skin looks more healthy.
To humans, this means a healthier partner and is more attractive for mating purposes. (healthy offspring!)
But of course a person's tastes varies from one to another, but thats the majority.

Anyways, I wouldn't bother changing something like your skin color! Who the hell cares, its not all about appearence. ANd you should be proud of your color!
Spend time on your game instead and those girls won't be able to resist you!

As for acne, go to the Health&Fitness part of this website.
Theres a thread there in "The Vault" that addresses treating acne.
Check it out!

I think you guys misunderstood. I'm black, and the same color as Akon.

...your point?
Why would you want to change your skin color JUST FOR GIRLS...makes no sense to me.

Even if you do change your skin color, do you think girls would come running towards you because you have a lighter shade!?
No! Its all about your personallity ( for the most part)

To get rid of the acne take really hot showers, this will open up your poors so the dirt can come out more easily. Also, use a towel in the shower to scrub (this seems obvious but I know a lot of guys that just use their hands.) These two things have kept my acne barely noticeable, I really don't have any acne. Oh yea use anti-bacterial soap.
