I know some girls that have 😂🙏 However, I feel like this is a bad idea long term because most skin bleaching creams and formulations contain potentially toxic or unsafe ingredients, which could sensitize or burn the skin and even be absorbed 😵

American skin lighteners are safer than ones found overseas, which use hydroquinone. In high concentrations and without doctor supervision, hydroquinone can cause liver and kidney cancer, as well as a hyperpigmentation of the treated skin. - Most lighteners made in the United States use kojic acid as the active ingredient.

I personally avoid any chemicals on my skin as much as possible 🏆

But yeah, this is 100% a real thing that some girls do. 🤷‍♀️
