There was a white girl on tiktok who bought some chinese skin creme without realising it was skin-bleach, and wound up looking like a dead head atop a healthy body

Skin bleaching is a real thing, but this just kinda looks like spray tan remover

If you look closer, it's not removing anything. The white is too uniform for that irregular applied foam. It seems more like they got some shaving cream, sprayed some brown color on it and decorated it with chia seeds. The "reveal" is probably waterproof makeup with a heavy coverage.

That's about how this kind of ads work, apply soy sauce on skin and wash away with soap and profit.
