BEYONCE IN NEW L'OREAL CAMPAIGN

Beyonce's New L'Oreal Campaign

Beyonce is back again with another L'Oreal Paris campaign. I don't know why Beyonce still work with these people, it annoyed me greatly when they turned her into a "white woman" for her last campaign. Beyonce is hardly the darkest black girl out there, so why they deemed it to be a good idea to lighten her skin even more than what it is, is beyond me.  Black females have enough issues with the whole "light skin" vs "dark skin" debate, adverts like this just add fuel to the fire.

This is the previous L'Oreal campaign

"White Beyonce" & "Black Beyonce" hmmm

Do you think Beyonce should do any more campaigns with L'oreal?
Yeah, make that money B!
No, they should never have altered her skin tone!
Do we really care!

Hey, i'm furious too about this. I don't know why the media prefers lighter woman then dark, i get angry when i see these type of things it really fustrates me at the fact they do this things. These campaigns make darker women sometimes have a low self esteem and they would do crazy things a bleach there skin to be ''perfect''

I ginuwinely thing these campaigns should stop because they are portraiting 'lighter is brighter'

All black people come in different shades of colours and we should be happy who we are.
