dc.description.abstractThe need for white skin has become a worldwide phenomenon and a cultural beauty standard especially among dark skinned populations. The use of skin bleaching without professional guidance has raised concerns about public health. A number of skin-lightening products (SLPs) have been linked to major side effects related to dermatology, the kidneys, and the nervous system. These products also contain hydroquinone, mercury, and corticosteroids. Studies show that achieving pale skin and beauty are the most common goals. Impressing peers and men are among the other reasons for wanting to get rid of redness, pustules, and skin issues.
