- Skin bleaching is a myth...you cannot actually lighten the colour of your skin. If it were possible, there'd be a lot fewer darker skinned people out there. And if you're citing Michael Jackson, he didn't bleach his skin. He has a condition called vitiligo which affects the melanin in the skin and causes patchy depigmentation. He covers the parts that are still dark brown (if there still are any left) with heavy stage makeup and he likely wears gloves all the time because he can't wear makeup on his hands without it transferring to everything he touches. Nose jobs are painful and expensive and in my opinion, a horrible waste of money unless there's a legitimate medical reason for having one. You're probably pretty young and going through what a lot of young people go through with insecurity about their looks. Give yourself a few years, you may actually find the things you're so insecure about turn out to be the things you love most about yourself. But if you still don't like your nose by then, then you should think about a change.
- Yes, it's not only a bad idea because of the health problems, but also mental. “Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.” You are trying to compete with a world that doesn't understand you. You're insecurities are getting the better of you. If you never had to look in a mirror, you wouldn't be so ashamed. Your skin is you, and you live in your skin. It doesn't matter what color you are, or what shape your nose is. Love yourself for who you are. “Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.” Dr. Seuss. So if people around you are making racist remarks, move away and find peace somewhere else where you can accept yourself, and find people who love you for who you are.
