this is actually a good topic!
before i proceed with this topic, i just want to say that am thankful for having the oppertunity to meet all you wonderful people here on mylot, with that being said i will proceed with the topic now.
do you wish your skin was lighter or darker ?
good question or should i say great question.
i'm a young darkskin female and i know am beautiful ..we all are.
i use to hate the color of my skin, i use to wish i was lighter because lighter girls always seem so much cuter. most of my ex's left me for someone lighter and i guess all that made me wish i was lighter.
wishing i was darker, was never in my books at all,
this was all in the past and i honestly like how i look now, i don't want to be lighter or darker anymore because my dark skin suits me and am now so happy with it.

I was always happy with the color of my skin. Now, and after chemotherapy, I´m unhappy about my skin in general. It is thin and I have to worry about the sun. I have had several skin surgeries due to cancer.

@Dairy5 I have a cancer in remission. I keep my fingers crossed. But I am a person with cancer, not a cancer. I cook, I garden. And if it wasn´t for the COVID (worse than cancer) I would have gone for vacations this year.

Nah, just wish to remember Sun block to protect skin. It's good you like the way you look for when you're confident & happy with self, good things happen! Your ex's left for they weren't the perfect right one true love for you. The right one will come along don't you worry about it.

I am really pale and I mean really pale... I don't even tan I lobster literally I get redness of the skin that doesn't fade for months :/ But I do love my skin colour and have never participated in getting that healthy (fake) tan I remember many of the girls in highschool spending a bunch of money on fake tans... I never saw the point.

I like the color of my skin. I always have. If I'm very honest, I wish I had less tan lines. In fact, I do in some places than in others. But, unless I bought a lawn chair and started to sunbathe in the yard, my skin color will remain as it is.

Just love our color of skin whatever it is, before I want a lighter color for my skin because it's looks more clean and people here tend to like a lighter one, but in other parts of world people just like darker color. Now, I think it's more important to have a healthy skin despite all the colors, and I believe healthy is beautiful
