It’s almost Valentine’s Day! Whether you’re celebrating with a partner, your friends or your family, sometimes it’s hard to nail that perfect look. Some of my richly melinated friends, who range from a lighter skin tone to deeper ones, have shared their fave YouTube makeup and style vloggers so that you too can have a picture perfect Valentine’s Day look. The tones are just a guideline, so…
I have a tanned skin and I feel bad when I see kpop idols whitewashed. I don’t know who makes this edit nor I was to knows who make it but I want to ask you one question: why you edit your idol’s skin? Everybody is beautiful because we have perfection and imperfections so why you edit your idol? Isn’t the first time I see whitewashed skin or flawless skin edit and now I say stop. Tanned skin is beautiful as all tone skin so stop edit your idol because it’s unfair for him and for the people who has a tan skin (like me and all people). Your school doesn’t teach you this is wrong? Black people fought and died for protected their right now for edit your idol’s skin you have destroyed the history of black people. I don’t want to write a long post about tanned skin and why tanned skin is hated because we know this topic and we know what is bad or good (thank God we have a brain), I want to write this because TANNED SKIN ISN’T A CRIME. I finish with this speech of one of the most and best wake man I’ve ever seen Kim Namjoon:
“Tell me your story. I want to hear your voice, and I want to hear your conviction. No matter who you are, where you’re from, your skin colour, your gender identity, just speak yourself. Find your name and find your voice by speaking yourself.
I’m Kim Namjoon, and also RM of BTS. I’m an idol, and I’m an artist from a small town in Korea. Like most people, I’ve made many and plenty mistakes in my life. I have many faults, and I have many more fears, but I’m going to embrace myself as hard as I can, and I’m starting to love myself, gradually, little by little.
