How come skin bleaching never became big in black America like it did in Africa & the Caribbean?

I think it’s because black Americans share a country with white folks, thus those that are colorists don’t need to resort to bleaching, they’ll just happily pawg or get with a red bone and have them lil beautiful light brown kids and vice versa for the women.

do you mean spot removers for removing spots like its made for?

or spot removers to apply all over to lighten their overall skintone?

No majority or all spot removers contain bleaching agents
varying degrees of

how you think a spot is removed?
as in there is no spot left
your skin is lightened

Most Africans are still mentally colonised & white is always right. Hence they’ll always strive for anything that bring them closer to whiteness.

ok...

in this thread.. when we say "bleaching" we are talking about people who apply bleaching agents all over themselves in an attempt to lighten their OVERALL skintone...

spot removers are used to remove dark BLEMISHES only...

which one are you speaking on?

Both bleach for the same purpose on average.
Fair skin is viewed as a positive....

spot removers chop away layers of skin
remove blemishes and spots
THAT IS BLEACHING

whether just face, arms, or legs only
they want lighter, smoother, more even complexion

do you use spot removers and pretend you not bleaching?
ever left clearasil on for too long?

imho in the africa and the carribean people use some harsh cheap shyt that makes it obvious and looks terrible.
in America there are things like vitamin c serums and other higher-end products that bleaches in a very subtle way.

LMAO, using a spot remove to get rid a scar clearly isn't the same as bleaching your whole face/body for lighter skin...the hell

Breh. Removing discoloration from an acne scar ain’t the same as applying cream all over your body. Maybe this stuff hits too close to home that’s why you’re trying to play semantics

Yes or no
Do spot removers, take off layers of skin?

If you leave a spot remover on too long does your skin not burn?

a little bleaching or a lot bleaching is still the same bleaching if the outcome is lighter skin
matters not your reason
