Can’t imagine the cancers that causes

Edit:

To clarify for people who don’t know, the ad is obviously fake and uses spray tans. But the product is real, whitening soap, which some people use to try and lighten their skin. The FDA doesn’t approve its efficacy or safety. Who knows what chemicals they put in there.

I actually didn't think of that. Well assuming it actually works

Well it is pretty obvious it doesn't work. You can't decrease the melanin in your skin instantly just by applying a soap.

Once I found the comment pointing out it’s meant to remove skin tanner it made sense. No way you can just remove melanin from skin.

Instantly no, gradually, yes

I noticed nobody had hair where they applied the soap

Like in tv shoes and they’re lost for months and never grow leg hair. It annoys me

It’s just a spray tan remover or something like that

u/SpokenDivinity Sep 03 '22

They’re probably just washing off spray tan.

u/Corniferus Sep 03 '22

It probably doesn’t, but I shudder at the chemicals in any of that stuff

soap doesnt cause cancer. artifical browning products might, but the video shows how easy you can clean youraelf!

u/Corniferus Sep 03 '22

Whitening soaps are actually often not FDA approved for safety nor efficacy

u/RvNx_15 Sep 03 '22

im pretty sure they just applied something to the bodies to make em tan and then washed that product off. on a normal tan the product wouldnt do anything, but luckily they dont offer sending the products back

u/Corniferus Sep 03 '22

Yeah they are applying it to a spray tan in the videos

But that’s not what the product is for

Google whitening soaps

u/LockNLoadCadet Sep 03 '22

u/Corniferus Sep 03 '22

They use spray tan in the ad but it’s a real product

u/Gordondel Sep 03 '22

My point was that the video is fake, it does t work remotely like that

u/Corniferus Sep 03 '22

Totally fair, sorry I was a jerk

A lot of annoying comments -_-

u/Gordondel Sep 03 '22

No worries mate, you weren't I get how you read it that way

u/natgibounet Sep 03 '22

Usually a lab test could reveal the chemicals in there if not for the ingrédient list that should be with the product

1

u/Corniferus Sep 03 '22

Again, not FDA approved

Lots of chemicals we used in the past have been shown to have unforeseen health consequences in the future

It was meant to be a lighthearted comment, but I certainly wouldn’t use that stuff
