    My mom has a darker skin than my dad. And after her marriage she was constantly reminded how she wasnt fitting into the family because my dads family everyone is much fairer.

      ​@@ChaptersofGrowth7That is so upsetting and ignorant of them. I was a kid who had darker skintone than my parents and they all wondered why I am like this, they would also tease me left and right about my skin color. I don't like the fact that colorism happens often in my country and home, I think every skin is beautiful as the others but I doubt that they will believe me, I've never felt so insecure about something my entire life. I felt so bad over something that was naturally given to me. I just want to feel accepted for who I am even once. 😢

    This is so true. As a child, I was so tanned because we used to go to school at such hours when the sun was on our heads. I have not stepped out much in the last three months, so my tan has faded and people are like, 'Did you do skin lightening?' I was like 'wtf'. Even my brother who used to be so tan has become light skinned by exercising, eating good food, and using sunscreen.

I have tinted fuller lips like you and regarding sheer lip sticks or lip gloss, I remember seeing some old makeup tutorial videos on UA-cam few years ago with this tip. Have you tried dabbing a little foundation or concealer on your lips with a blending sponge or beauty blender to even out the lip pigmentation. That way you can try out more variety of lip products or lip colors including nude and pink lip colors without worrying so much about the lip pigmentation thing. Just a thought and suggestion since you mentioned it.

    I also have two-toned pigmented lips and I used to be self-conscious about it but in North America (I'm from Canada), the dark lip liner/gradient lip combo is so popular so I love my lips now. It's unfortunate that our self-perception is so reliant on our environment but I hope it makes you feel better that there are people in other countries who would be ecstatic to have lips like yours!

      Just think people always want what they can't have. In Europe everyone is burning themselves in the sun to get a tan and using dark foundations. I am a brown girl and one time I couldn't buy my foundation shade, the makeup artist told me its coz white girls use that to tan... I went to 3 shops and only that shade was sold out haha. Don't care about other people's opinions. Find the right colours to match your skin tone and undertones (dark girls can pull of orange and blue in a way light girls could never) :)

    As a dark South Indian girl living in North India I've always been discriminated against by my peers and teachers. My father had a colleague/friend who has a daughter(fair skinned didi) older than me and always bullied me as a kid. Anyways, we grew up and all bullying and stuff was in the past. I wanted to get admission in the same college as hers so I met her to inquire about the procedure since she was in third year. She provided me with all the info but asked me not to tell anyone that I knew her because that can cause my seniors (her peers) to bully me. Initially I was so happy about how she is so gentle and thoughtful of me. I told that to my bestie and she pointed out that the 'didi' is ashamed to show you, a dark skinned girl as her 'sister' because she calls us(black skinned mallus) names behind our back. I knew for a fact that she used to brag about how people don't believe that she's from Kerala because of her light complexion. It hit me like a train and I felt so bad even though I'm over it now. This is just one incident. There are just countless of them. I'm happy that I know better now and it doesn't bother me as much as it did in the past. I've started to love myself because my family, especially my husband keeps boosting my confidence by showering me with compliments. Beauty has nothing to do with your skin colour. Light skin, dark skin, skinny, curvy, too tall, too short blah blah blah.. Don't listen to toxic people. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL THE WAY YOU ARE. ❤

    This video has a lot of comments now so not sure if you will read this one, but this is the first video of yours which I have watched and I just wanted to say I loved the way you addressed each point. The genuineness was so refreshing! Felt like I was having a conversation with a friend, and I'm sure lots of people could relate to the personal stories you added (including me). If there are any younger people reading this, please know that as you get older a lot of your insecurities fade away, I PROMISE! In fact, you will start to love the unique things about yourself and a lot of issues like acne will resolve by itself or with some good medication. A big part of maturing is is learning to be appreciative of the big things like health, the ability to run, laugh, and feel joy. Of course, we all feel insecure at times but its important in those moments to feel gratitude for all the wonderful things in your life!

    Omg I have had to face the similar issue like you. I was born fair and remained in my original tone until i went to school as a kid. At that time, i was about 8-10 yrs of age and had been exposed to sun so much which resulted in extreme sun tan that darkened my skin quite a lot. I didn't see any issue in that until random relatives saw me and made comments like - "when did u get so dark like this? You weren't like this when you were more little"
    "You are so dark now, why have u become like this?"
    Some also gave me some illogical advices like to drink milk and not tea so that my skin won't get dark.
    Anyways, my sun tan remained for some years but eventually as i got older it started to fade away more and more and during covid (lockdown) finally i got back my original skin tone after the childhood sun damage.
    Now people give me so much compliments and say i got fair/ i look pretty etc but honestly these comments don't make me flatter but rather makes me feel disgusted about how these people see fair skin superior to darker skin. There's absolutely nothing wrong with someone being dark or if n someones gets sun tanned which makes them dark. There's no need to make dark skin looks like it's something bad, cause it's NOT. Let's change this bias

    I've had a similar experience with my skin tone - born with fair skin.. tanned a lot because I used to play a lot in the scorching sunlight, and from then on I was shamed a lot (aunts saying the same "aiyyo nee vallathe karuthallo"). Needless to say, my self-esteem was non-existent and it took me YEARS to accept my darker skin tone.. once I started working and the pandemic happening soon after, my skin tone changed and suddenly I was being given compliments, which at this point seemed fake to me, and did nothing to boost my confidence 😂 I just cannot stand the whole 'fair skin = beauty' bs anymore.

I was in north India that time and no one would be friends with me cuz i was brown and they were fair. They literally said that to me on my face. It has taken years for me to actually love my skin color but every time i hear a comment, it still breaks my heart. Sending love to you and all other girls who are forced to feel bad about themselves because they do not fit the unrealistic beauty standards. Everyone is beautiful and the imperfections we all have is what makes us unique.

    I think most of us in India have gone through this 'dark skin, fair skin' nonsense. As young kids, it really affects you, especially when there is no contradictory/difffernet narrative. When you're a kid and that is the only thing you hear, it becomes impossible to separate it from yourself and not internalize it.
    You're the 2nd UA-camr (even after all these years) to candidly and extensively talk about this. I am so grateful for people like you. For me, @SherryShroff was the first person ever to talk about the reality behind skin tones (and a lot more like skin imperfections, scars, etc). Through her videos I realized that my skin tone is what I have and will never be able to change (oh the heartbreak when I first heard this and then subsequently confirmed on the Internet). But that is also when my acceptance began. And, slowly but steadily I started loving my skin colour. I owe so much to her, more for being the source of my really long self-love journey. I learnt how to embrace my natural self and love me for exactly who I am. And I am so glad to see another influencer talk about this! I am sure, Satshya, that you'll be this person for so many other people!
    The after-effects of trauma already experienced is hard to reverse but if you can stop someone before they fall into this pit, it can bring such monumental changes!
    My 5-6 year old self (who would desperately rub tubes of Fair & Lovely with the aching hope that it would make me at least a tad bit fairer) (yes, I agree that is horrible!!!) would be so proud to see me be absolutely in love my skin colour!
    So much love for you guys.

    I am so glad that you spoke up about this. I have a similar story. I was born fair but used to go out and play under the sun a lot as a kid and got tanned very much as a result. I never had an issue with tanning nor my parents did but my own grandmother and some other relatives kept on pointing I looked so dark and looked like ( don't want to use the N term as its offensive but ig you guys get it). Anyway looked like they had a problem with everything. I also had curly hair and I often used to be called maggie hair, coils, relatives always told why did I look like this etc. One time they even had the audacity to say "oh none of your parents are so dark, why are you like this" I was just in class 4 or 5 back then. And about skin lightening some of my friends even used to bully me for it. I just want to say people just don't know how much damage they are doing. I was just a 10 y/o kid. Today I'm 22 and obviously due to not going out much and due to lockdown my tan went away a lot and my skin is much fairer now but even when now I go to my grandmother's place she always uses the term "you've become very beautiful NOW" like bro excuse me? I have heard about skin and hair so much since childhood that I straightened up my hair so many times which eventually was damaging my natural hair and even till date I just fear tanning because of all the negative comments I heard as a child. People think children will forget or they won't remember but children do remember all the hurtful stuffs and bullying and that gives them trauma as they grow up. Thank you for addressing this issue :) I am trying to heal from it and accept myself and I think myself to be beautiful

    I could literally relate to all the things that you talked about. Kudos to you and everyone who have shared these similar moments or have been part of a similar situation/ conversation. It takes a lot to speak up. I used to complain to my mom that why didn't you make me fairer when I was a baby... After years I understood this and accepted my genetics. My relatives used to always point out my complexion and they used to blame my parents saying she's her Dad's daughter not mom's... And I was like what the hell... My mom used to listen to all these silently and cry...Just before some years the same relative said the same thing again when we visited their house and I just lost it and it took a lot of courage to stand up and be vocal about it. And that was it... No one has ever talked to my mom or dad or even me again regarding this complexion thing. And am glad that i did it. And I used to cry a lot when someone said "Yaar tu Kaali hai" and all that... Now it doesn't even matter... I reply to them "Yaar kaali hun toh kya hua dilwali hun" 💖😅 My parents & my sister 's opinion matter to me. That's it... Whoever will love you... Will love the way you are, no matter what.
