Senegal
One of the top fashion secrets in Senegal is to have lighter skin to complement your character and find men crawling at your feet. Since 2015, the country has seen a rise in the number of bleaching creams that flood the market from other countries like Mali and Ivory Coast. In 2017, Senegalese cosmetic doctors appealed to the government to ban bleaching products with concerns that the number of women suffering from skin diseases related to bleaching has increased.
