41、 may be seen as a mark of beauty, intelligence and success. These beliefs can lead to social pressure even within the same racial or ethnic group. The result is that skin lightening has become a common activity across Africa, Asia and other areas of the world. More and more people with dark skin are

42、 using skin-lightening products, even if they may face health risks. They believe that having whiter skin will improve their lives.
