 Summer time
is the period when everyone aspires to leave the stuffy and gloomy metropolitan
to the sun. The beautiful tan is the best thing we can get in the south. The
swarthy Asians and Indians appreciate the light skin and thus, they hide from
the sun and whiten the skin. The light skin in India is deemed the sign of the higher
caste. The darker is the skin with the Indians, the lower caste they belong to.
White skin in
modern India
is the beauty and the absolute component of well-being and success. As the
marketing analysts state, 100% increase in sale of king whitening products is
marked in India
for the precious year.
Natural
ayurveda cosmetic products to whiten the skin
The market
of the skin whitening products in India
is incredibly developed and the products by the world-known manufacturers are
presented as Nivea, Garnier, Avon, L'Oreal,
Lancome, Yves Saint-Laurent, Clinique and by the local lines, either.
The Indians
who care of their complexion throughout the history known to us are aware of
the skill of skin whitening. The most popular products that the Indians use to
whiten the skin is the Fair and Lovely Lightening Cream by Emami which is
offered in three kinds of it:
Ayurveda
with herbal essences and natural substances as components;
Multivitamine
with vitamins of В3 group
that decrease the active effect of melanocytes from inside, С group vitamins lighten the
skin and revive the natural shine, Е group vitamins nourish and moisture the skin from
inside, protect it fro, free radicals and rejuvenates.
Skin
Clarity is the effective skin lightening cream with the complex of Vita-aloe, vitamins
B3 and Е and fruit AHA-acids.
The warning is provided on the packing of the cream that tells on the potential
allergic reaction when the use of this cream should be postponed.
The Emami Company
responded to the increasing willing of men to have their skin lightened with
the release of new lightening cream Fair and Handsome exclusively for men.
Himalaya by Herbals is popular with natural components as cabbage rose, tangerine,
aloe and Circassian walnut. The ayurveda which stands for alive and natural,
cosmetic products are extremely popular in India which is offered by the
following brands as Himalaya, Biotique, Naturence, Lotus Herbals, Ayur, Shahnaz
Herbals and others. The cosmetic products of these brands successfully
penetrate the European market.
Skin
lightening products containing mercury and hydroquinone
Along with
safe and quality cosmetic creams designed for skin whitening the black market
in India
provides products containing banned toxic substances. This is elated to the
cost of the latter which is far cheaper than products provided by reputed
brands, and yet, the stratum of the poor in India is higher. So, the cheap fake
of the reputed skin lightening products are offered in India like Cure and
Lovely as the analogues of Fair and Lovely Cream by Emami. Also the cheap
cosmetics from China, Hong Kong and other countries of the third world is
popular. When such cosmetic products are used, it results in serious
irritation, redness, allergic reaction, inflammations and even to skin cancer.
And such dangerous products are divided into two basic categories as follow:
Creams with
higher concentration of mercury as Jiaoli, Mui Lee Hiang, Natural 99 yellow
cream, Super White Rose Whitening Essence, Whitening Sunblock Cream, EMEL SKIN
CARE, Dermaline, Stillmann's Freckle cream, Fasco Herbal cream and so forth.
Mercury was
used for skin lightening in the early XX
century until it was revealed as the strongest and hazardous toxin and poison
for the health. Such substances cause strongest irritation, pigmentation
impairment and even abscesses.
Creams with
hydroquinone with the concentration of over 2% as Maxi White S1 Lightening
Cream Gel by Labo Farmax with 9% of toxic substance, Skin light, Super
Lightening Body Lotion by Rodis with 5 % of toxins.
Hydroquinone
is the toxic substance that is forbidden to use in cosmetic products in many
countries. It inhibits the activity of melanocytes but it affects toxically the
cells of the skin. Hydroquinone can lead to skin pigmentation lightening the
skin in parts and cause irritation.
Buying
cheap creams not tested clinically, the Indians risk losing beauty of their
skin. However, from the early age they are imposed on the light skin as the
desired and wanted by the majority. The commercials in India that promote skin lightening
products propagate the white skin as the tool to achieve social wealthy which
is like the racism demonstration.
On the top
of it, the local Barbie doll is manufactured in India lately with the Bollywood
star Katrina Kaif as the prototype for it, the actress with the light skin and
European complexion with English blood. The symbol of the country is not
considered as the swarthy woman with the Indian features, at all. And skin
lightening is likely to be and stay the most popular approach in India. Though,
safety
is the priority here.
