Can I change my skin tone or colour? It is not possible to change your skin tone or colour. The media and cosmetic industry have led us to falsely believe that we can lighten our natural skin tone by several shades. Fairness products in the form of face wash, creams and lotions are marketed with a promise to make even darker skin tones fairer. However, expert dermatologists agree that either those fairness products contain harmful chemicals that may damage your skin or are ineffective in the long run. Therefore, we can not possibly change the skin colour or tone we are born with.
